B250 Micro-ATX for LGA 1151 builds

This GIGABYTE board fits Micro-ATX cases and accepts 6th and 7th generation Intel Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron processors in the LGA 1151 socket. The Intel B250 chipset provides a stable platform for everyday computing and office workloads. Two DDR4 DIMM slots give a straightforward upgrade path.

32 GB DDR4 ceiling and PCIe 3.0 lanes

Maximum memory supported is 32 GB across the two slots, enough for multitasking and mainstream applications; beyond that the board cannot go. A single PCI Express x16 slot and one x1 slot both run at PCIe 3.0 speeds, handling a discrete graphics card and one add-in card. Storage connects through four SATA III ports and one M.2 interface for SATA drives.

Realtek audio and gigabit LAN on a compact PCB

The 22.6 cm by 17.4 cm board carries a Realtek ALC887 codec supporting up to 7.1 channel high-definition audio through front and rear jacks. A Realtek gigabit controller delivers 10, 100 and 1000 Mbit wired networking. Rear I/O includes four USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports and two USB 2.0 ports, with two more USB 3.1 Gen 1 and four USB 2.0 headers available internally.
