LGA 1151 Intel B250 Motherboard

The ASUS PRIME B250-PLUS is a desktop motherboard built around the Intel B250 chipset for LGA 1151 processors. It supports Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron CPUs and runs memory in dual-channel mode. The board provides SATA 3.0 and USB 3.0 connectivity for storage and peripherals. It is a standard ATX foundation for a mainstream office or home PC.

Builders using 6th or 7th generation Intel Core CPUs

This board suits builders reusing an LGA 1151 processor who need a reliable platform with current SATA and USB speeds. It is not for buyers who want AMD Ryzen compatibility or a newer Intel socket. It is also not for systems that require more than the native SATA and USB 3.0 interfaces provided by the B250 chipset. Overclocking-focused users should look elsewhere because the B250 chipset does not support CPU multiplier adjustments.

Intel B250 Chipset

The chipset determines the feature set: native SATA 3.0 ports, USB 3.0 support and dual-channel DDR4 memory control without CPU overclocking. If your build needs those exact interfaces and you have a compatible LGA 1151 processor, this board matches the requirement. If the chipset feature list does not align with your planned storage or peripheral count, a different chipset will be necessary.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the B250 or B350 chipset version?

The PRIME B250-PLUS uses the Intel B250 chipset for LGA 1151 processors, while the PRIME B350M-A uses the AMD B350 chipset for AM4 Ryzen CPUs. They are different platforms and not interchangeable.

What does the dual-channel DDR4 support mean for my build?

The board runs memory in dual-channel mode across its four DDR4 slots, up to a maximum of 64 GB total capacity.

How fast are the USB 3.0 and SATA 3.0 ports in practice?

USB 3.0 operates at 5 Gb/s and SATA 3.0 at 6 Gb/s, setting the ceiling for external drives and internal SSDs respectively.
