LGA 1200 Micro-ATX for 10th and 11th Gen Intel

This Micro-ATX board uses the Intel B560 chipset and an LGA 1200 socket to support 10th Gen Intel Core, 11th Gen Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron processors. It targets builders who want a compact platform with modern connectivity for everyday work or gaming. Four DDR4 slots accept up to 128 GB of memory in dual-channel mode.

Dual M.2, 2.5 Gbps LAN and front USB-C

Two M.2 Key M slots take 2242, 2260 or 2280 drives; the top slot runs at PCIe 4.0 x4 with an 11th Gen CPU and PCIe 3.0 x4 or SATA with a 10th Gen CPU. Six SATA 6 Gb/s ports are available, though SATA2 disables when a SATA drive occupies M2_1. A Realtek RTL8125B controller provides 2.5 Gbps wired networking, while the rear I/O includes HDMI 2.0b, DisplayPort 1.4, a USB 3.2 Gen 2 10 Gbps Type-C port and 7.1-channel audio from the Realtek ALC897 codec.

Check CPU generation for PCIe 4.0 and memory speed

PCIe 4.0 on the primary x16 slot and the top M.2 slot requires an 11th Gen processor; with a 10th Gen chip both run at PCIe 3.0. Memory defaults are 2133, 2666 or 2933 MHz for 10th Gen and up to 3200 MHz JEDEC for 11th Gen; higher speeds up to 5066+ MHz are possible through XMP overclocking depending on DIMM population. Ensure your case fits a Micro-ATX board and that the power supply provides the required 4-pin CPU and 24-pin ATX connectors.

Questions about this item

What PCIe generation does the primary M.2 slot use and what bandwidth does that cap the drive at?

With an 11th Gen CPU the M2_1 slot runs at PCIe 4.0 x4; with a 10th Gen CPU it drops to PCIe 3.0 x4, limiting sequential throughput to the 3.0 ceiling.

What case clearance and mounting pattern does this Micro‑ATX board require?

The board follows the Micro‑ATX form factor with standard mounting holes, so it fits any case that lists Micro‑ATX support and provides the matching standoff layout.

How is the Wi‑Fi module installed and what step is commonly missed?

The Wi‑Fi card plugs into the CNVi M.2 Key‑E slot near the rear I/O; the screw must be fitted before the antenna cables are snapped on, otherwise the card can lift and lose contact.
