Compact Intel Core Ultra platform

The B860I AORUS PRO ICE is a Mini-ITX motherboard built for Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processors on the LGA 1851 socket. It targets builders who need high-end connectivity in a small chassis. The board supports up to 256GB of DDR5 memory across two slots with speeds ranging from 5600 to 9200 MT/s.

Thermal armour and tool-free mounting

An 80A SPS VRM with 8+1+2+1 phases is covered by VRM Thermal Armor Advanced and an M.2 Thermal Guard for sustained loads. The PCIe 5.0 x16 slot and the primary M.2 2280 slot both use EZ-Latch mechanisms so cards and drives install without screws. A rear M.2 2280 slot adds a second NVMe option.

Thunderbolt 4 and WIFI7 ready

The rear I/O includes a Thunderbolt 4 USB Type-C port, DisplayPort, HDMI, three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and 2.5GbE LAN. WIFI7 with 2T2R antennas and a Q-Flash Plus button complete the feature set for quick BIOS updates.

Questions about this item

What PCIe standard does the single M.2 slot wired to the CPU support, and what is its practical bandwidth limit?

The CPU-connected M.2 slot runs PCIe 5.0 x4, capping sequential throughput at the 5.0 x4 ceiling for NVMe drives.

What physical space and mounting hardware does the board require for the M.2 drives?

Both slots accept 2280-length modules; the top slot uses a screw while the rear slot uses the EZ-Latch clip, so no tool is needed there.

How is the Wi-Fi 7 module attached, and which step do builders often miss?

The WIFI EZ-Plug antenna connectors snap onto the rear I/O; the step people skip is pressing both connectors fully home until they click.
