Ready for 12th and 13th Gen Intel Core

This ATX motherboard uses the LGA 1700 socket and supports 12th Gen Intel Core processors out of the box. A BIOS update enables compatibility with 13th Gen Intel Core desktop processors. It is built for DDR4 memory and includes PCIe 5.0 support for modern graphics cards and storage.

14+2 DrMOS power stages

The enhanced power solution uses 14+2 DrMOS power stages, ProCool sockets and Digi+ VRM control for stable delivery. Military-grade TUF components are chosen for durability under sustained load. Networking uses WiFi 6 AX201 and Intel I225-V 2.5G LAN with TUF LANGuard and TurboLAN technology.

Four M.2 slots for NVMe SSDs

Four M.2 connectors provide capacity for NVMe SSDs without using drive bays. A front-panel USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C header and a Thunderbolt 4 header add high-speed external connectivity. Dual mounting holes accept both LGA 1700 and LGA 1200 cooler brackets, giving flexibility when choosing a CPU cooler.

Questions about this item

How do I install the motherboard and which mounting holes should I use for an LGA 1700 cooler?

Mount the board using the standard ATX screw pattern. The board includes dual mounting holes that accept both LGA 1700 and LGA 1200 coolers; use the LGA 1700 set for 12th or 13th gen CPUs.

What maintenance or replacement will the WiFi 6 AX201 module need later?

The AX201 module is soldered to the board and not user-replaceable. Keep the antenna connectors tight and update drivers through Windows Update or the Intel support site when new releases appear.

What limit appears first under sustained heavy load on the 14+2 DrMOS power stages?

VRM temperature is the first limit. The 14+2 DrMOS stages and military-grade TUF components are rated for high current, but prolonged all-core loads will raise heatsink temps until airflow or fan curves are increased.
