AM3+ motherboard with DDR3 2400+(OC) support

The ASRock 970M Pro3 is a Socket AM3+ motherboard built around the AMD 970 and SB950 chipsets. It accepts AM3+ and AM3 processors up to 140W and provides four DDR3 slots for dual-channel memory up to 64GB. The board includes 7.1 channel audio with Realtek ALC892 and ELNA capacitors.

Suits builders using AM3+

This board fits systems that rely on Socket AM3+ or compatible AM3 processors and dual-channel DDR3 modules. It is not suited for users who need newer CPU sockets, different memory types or more than four memory slots. Builds requiring additional PCIe lanes or integrated wireless connectivity should look elsewhere.

Four DDR3 slots supporting up to 64GB at 2400+(OC)

The memory subsystem provides four unbuffered DDR3 slots with dual-channel architecture. Supported speeds include 2400+(OC), 2100(OC), 1866(OC), 1800(OC), 1600(OC), 1333 and 1066. XMP 1.3/1.2 and AMP profiles are supported for compatible modules.
