Socket and chipset

The board uses an LGA 1200 socket paired with the Intel Z590 chipset. It accepts 10th Gen and 11th Gen Intel Core processors plus Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs. Four DDR4 slots support up to 128 GB of memory in dual-channel mode.

PCIe lane limits

The primary PCIe x16 slot runs at 4.0 with an 11th Gen CPU and at 3.0 with a 10th Gen CPU. Two additional x16 slots operate at 3.0 from the chipset. Three M.2 interfaces and six SATA ports share the remaining chipset bandwidth.

Build and I/O

A 2.5 Gbps Intel LAN controller and a Realtek ALC4080 7.1 audio codec handle networking and sound. The rear panel includes a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 20 Gbps Type-C port plus multiple Type-A ports. Internal headers supply further USB 3.2 Gen 1 and Gen 2 connections. The package provides the board, a CMOS battery, one SATA cable, an I/O shield and a WiFi antenna.

Questions about this item

Which memory speed should I pick for this board?

The specifications list DDR4 speeds from 3300 up to 5333 MT/s when overclocked; choose a kit that matches your CPU's memory controller and your budget

What does the 2.5 Gbps LAN figure mean in daily use?

The Intel I225V controller provides up to 2.5 Gbps wired throughput, so large file transfers on a 2.5 Gbps switch or router will be faster than standard 1 Gbps Ethernet

Which PCIe generation does the top x16 slot actually run at?

With an 11th Gen CPU the primary slot operates at PCIe 4.0 x16; with a 10th Gen CPU it runs at PCIe 3.0 x16
