Socket LGA 1151 Micro ATX Board
The Gigabyte GA-B250M-D3H revision 1.0 is a micro ATX motherboard built on the Intel B250 chipset. It accepts LGA 1151 processors from the Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron families. The board provides four 288-pin DDR4 slots, a single PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot, six SATA 6Gb/s ports, one SATA Express connector and one M.2 socket.
6th and 7th Generation Intel Builders
This board suits builders using 6th or 7th generation Intel CPUs who need a compact platform with dual-channel memory up to 64 GB. It is not compatible with 8th generation processors, so owners of those chips must choose a different platform. The single full-length PCIe slot limits multi-GPU configurations.
DDR4 2400 MHz Requires 7th Gen CPU
The memory standard lists DDR4 2400 and 2133 MHz, but 2400 MHz or XMP operation only activates when a 7th generation processor is installed. With a 6th generation CPU the board runs memory at 2133 MHz. This distinction decides whether the board meets your speed target.

Questions about this item
What case clearance does the GA-B250M-D3H Micro-ATX board and its 288-pin DDR4 slots require?
The board uses the Micro-ATX form factor, so any chassis that accepts Micro-ATX or larger will fit; the four 288-pin DDR4 slots sit along the right edge and need standard DIMM height clearance.
Which step do builders often miss when seating the single PCI Express 3.0 x16 graphics card in the PCIEX16 slot?
The PCIEX16 slot runs at x16 electrically; the manual stresses inserting the card there first for best performance, yet many install it in the second x16-size slot that only runs at x4.
How do I keep the Realtek ALC892 audio codec and Intel GbE LAN controller running reliably over time?
Both controllers are soldered onboard and need no user service; just clear dust from the rear I/O ports and the board surface periodically so heat can dissipate normally.
