Socket AM4 Ryzen Platform

This ATX motherboard pairs first- and second-generation Ryzen processors with the AMD X370 chipset. It is aimed at builders who want a full-size board for gaming or workstation tasks.

64GB Dual-Channel DDR4 Limit

Four slots accept DDR4 modules at 1866, 2133, 2400, 2667, 2933 or 3200 MHz, with overclocked speeds supported. The ceiling is 64GB total, so memory capacity is fixed by this specification.

Two PCIe 3.0 x16 Slots Plus Storage

The board provides two full-length PCIe 3.0 x16 slots that run at x16/x0 or x8/x8 with Ryzen CPUs. Six SATA III ports and two M.2 interfaces handle drives, while a single Intel I211AT Gigabit LAN port and 7.1-channel Realtek ALC1220 audio complete the I/O.

Questions about this item

What does the 3200 MHz DDR4 memory rating mean when I install modules on this board?

The 3200 MHz figure is an overclocked speed; the board runs DDR4 at 1866/2133/2400 MHz by default and reaches 2667/2933/3200 MHz only when you enable the appropriate memory profile in BIOS.

Which PCIe generation and lane widths do the two main x16 slots provide?

The two primary slots are PCIe 3.0 x16 and operate in x16/x0 or x8/x8 modes with Ryzen processors, while 7th generation A-series and Athlon CPUs run them at x8/x0.

What physical space and mounting pattern does this ATX motherboard need inside a case?

It uses the standard ATX form factor with the usual nine mounting holes and rear I/O shield cut-out, so any ATX-compatible chassis will accept it.
