AMD A68H Socket FM1 Board

This ATX motherboard uses the AMD A68H chipset and accepts Socket FM1 processors. It is aimed at builders assembling a budget desktop or replacing a board in an existing FM1 system. Dual-channel DDR3 support and a full set of legacy slots make it practical for general-purpose use.

Check CPU socket and memory

Verify that your processor fits Socket FM1 and that you have DDR3 modules rated for 1333, 1600, 1866 or 2133 MHz. The board provides four memory slots with a 32 GB maximum capacity. Ensure your case can accommodate an ATX form factor and that your power supply has the required ATX connectors.

Bundled cables and I/O shield

The package includes one SATA cable for connecting a drive, a CMOS battery for the real-time clock, and a chassis I/O back panel for the rear ports. No additional adapters, Wi-Fi antenna or software discs are supplied.
