B250 Micro ATX board for LGA 1151 CPUs

This GIGABYTE B250M-Power motherboard fits the Micro ATX form factor and uses the Intel B250 chipset. It accepts 6th and 7th generation Intel Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron processors in the LGA 1151 socket. Two DDR4 DIMM slots provide the memory connection for mainstream desktop builds.

32 GB DDR4 ceiling with dual-channel layout

Maximum memory supported is 32 GB across the two DDR4 slots, giving 16 GB per slot in a dual-channel configuration. Four SATA III ports and one M.2 interface handle storage, while a single PCI Express x16 slot running at 3.0 x16 and one PCI Express x1 slot at 3.0 provide expansion room for a graphics card and one extra add-in card.

Realtek audio and gigabit LAN on USB 3.1 Gen 1

Onboard audio uses the Realtek ALC887 codec with 7.1 channel support, and networking is handled by a Realtek GbE controller at 10/100/1000 Mbit. The chipset delivers six USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports, four on the rear panel and two via internal header, plus six USB 2.0 ports split between rear panel and internal headers.
