Socket LGA 1151 ATX board for 8th Gen Intel Core
This MSI Z370 Gaming Pro Carbon AC motherboard accepts 8th Gen Intel Core, Pentium and Celeron processors in an LGA 1151 socket. The Intel Z370 chipset provides three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots configurable as x16/x0/x4 or x8/x8/x4 plus three PCIe 3.0 x1 slots. Dual-channel DDR4 memory is supported up to 64 GB with overclocked speeds reaching 4000 MHz.
Installation notes and common issues
The board follows standard ATX mounting so it fits regular chassis screw holes. Apply CPU cooler pressure evenly to avoid bending pins in the LGA 1151 socket. Seat memory modules firmly until the retention clips click; incomplete insertion is the most frequent cause of no-post. Connect the 8-pin EPS and 24-pin ATX power cables before first boot.
Compatibility checklist before ordering
Verify that your processor is an 8th Gen Intel Core, Pentium or Celeron with LGA 1151 packaging. Confirm the power supply provides both 24-pin ATX and 8-pin EPS connectors. Ensure the case accommodates ATX dimensions and has clearance for the rear I/O shield supplied. Check that any M.2 drives you intend to use are SATA protocol, as the two M.2 interfaces are wired for SATA.

Questions sur cet article
How can I confirm the Realtek ALC1220 audio is delivering 7.1 channel output after build?
Connect speakers to the rear audio jacks, open Windows Sound control panel, select the Realtek device, choose 7.1 in speaker setup and run the test tones for each channel.
Which accessories are included and which cables or modules must be sourced separately?
Box contains the motherboard, a CMOS battery, one SATA cable and the rear I/O shield; a Wi-Fi antenna is supplied only if the board has the onboard module. Extra SATA cables, M.2 screws or fan splitters are not included.
Should I choose the 64 GB DDR4 4000 MHz kit or a lower-speed kit for this Z370 board?
The board supports up to 64 GB and lists DDR4 speeds from 2133 MHz to 4000 MHz (OC); pick a kit within that range that matches your CPU's memory controller and budget — higher bins need manual tuning.
