Intel Core Ultra Ready Platform

This LGA 1851 motherboard accepts Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processors and pairs them with the Intel B860 chipset. Four DDR5 DIMM slots support up to 256 GB of memory and a long list of overclocked speeds. The 14+1+2+1 phase VRM uses 60 A DrMOS for the VCORE and VCCSA rails and a 40 A phase for VCCGT.

Build Integration And Expansion

The board fits ATX cases and provides one PCIe 5.0 x16 slot that can host a graphics card or an NVMe SSD, plus two PCIe 4.0 x16 slots running at x1. Three M.2 sockets and four SATA 6 Gb/s ports handle storage, while RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 are available on the SATA array. A USB4 Type-C port, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, four USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and four USB 2.0 ports cover rear I/O.

DIY Friendly Extras And Networking

EZ-Latch mechanisms on the primary PCIe slot and M.2 sockets remove the need for tools when swapping cards or drives. The WIFI EZ-Plug simplifies antenna attachment for the Realtek Wi-Fi 7 RTL8922AE and MediaTek MT7925 controllers, which deliver WIFI7 on 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands with 160 MHz channels and BLUETOOTH 5.4. A 2.5 GbE LAN port completes the network stack.

Questions about this item

What VRM phase limit appears first during sustained all-core loads on the 14+1+2+1 60 A DrMOS design?

The 14 VCORE phases are rated at 60 A each, so total VCORE current capacity is the first hard limit under heavy multi-core workloads.

How loud and hot does the MOSFET heatsink and M.2 Thermal Guard get when the board runs all day?

Large MOSFET heatsinks and M.2 Thermal Guards are designed to dissipate VRM and SSD heat quietly during continuous operation.

Which DDR5 memory kit must I already own to reach the listed 9200 MT/s overclock on this board?

Any DDR5 kit on the GIGABYTE QVL validated for 9200 MT/s will work; the board supports up to 256 GB across four 288-pin slots.
