Socket and chipset
The board uses the LGA 1200 socket paired with the Intel Z590 chipset. It accepts both 10th and 11th generation Intel Core processors. Buyers must match their CPU generation to the socket to ensure compatibility.
Memory configuration
Four DDR4 slots support up to 128 GB in dual-channel mode. 11th generation CPUs enable speeds up to 4800+(OC) while 10th generation CPUs reach 4600+(OC). The rated native speed for 11th generation Core i9, i7 and i5 processors is 3200.
Storage and expansion
One Hyper M.2 socket delivers PCIe 4.0 x4 bandwidth for NVMe drives with 11th generation CPUs. A second Ultra M.2 socket and four SATA 6Gb/s ports provide additional storage. PCIe 4.0 x16, PCIe 3.0 x4 and PCIe 3.0 x1 slots handle graphics and add-in cards.

Questions about this item
What does the DDR4 4800+(OC) rating mean when I install an 11th Gen Intel Core processor?
With an 11th Gen Intel Core i9, i7 or i5 the board runs DDR4 at 3200 natively; the 4800+(OC) figure is an overclocked speed that requires manual tuning and compatible memory modules.
How does the PCI Express 4.0 x16 slot behave with a 10th Gen versus an 11th Gen CPU?
The slot delivers PCIe 4.0 x16 bandwidth only when paired with an 11th Gen Intel Core processor; a 10th Gen CPU limits it to PCIe 3.0 speeds.
What physical space and mounting pattern does the Micro ATX board need inside a case?
It fits any chassis with Micro ATX or larger mounting holes and measures to the standard Micro ATX footprint, using the usual nine screw positions.
