LGA 1155 Micro ATX Board for Basic Builds

The GIGABYTE GA-H61M-S2P-B3 revision 1.0 is a Micro ATX motherboard built around the Intel H61 chipset. It accepts LGA 1155 socket processors including Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron models. Two DDR3 DIMM slots support up to 16 GB of system memory. The board measures 24.4 by 20 cm and includes one PCI Express x16 slot, one PCI Express x1 slot and two legacy PCI slots.

Suits Legacy Upgrades; Not for Modern Systems

This board suits owners replacing a failed H61 board or building a low-cost secondary PC from existing LGA 1155 parts. Integrated Atheros AR8151 gigabit LAN and VIA VT1708 audio with 7.1 channel support cover basic connectivity. Buyers needing USB 3.0, SATA 6 Gbps, M.2 slots or support for current generation CPUs should choose a newer platform.

16 GB Memory Ceiling and SATA II Storage Limits

Maximum memory capacity is 16 GB across two DDR3 slots, adequate for office applications and older games. Four SATA II ports provide up to 3 Gbps throughput each, limiting modern SSD performance. The single PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot restricts graphics bandwidth compared to newer standards, while eight USB 2.0 ports handle peripherals without high-speed transfers.

Questions about this item

Which processor socket must my CPU match for this GIGABYTE GA-H61M-S2P-B3 rev.1.0 board?

The board uses an LGA 1155 socket, so the CPU must be an LGA 1155 model such as a Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium or Celeron processor.

Will my existing PCI Express 2.0 graphics card run at full speed in the x16 slot?

Yes, the single PCI Express x16 slot operates at the PCI Express 2.0 specification, matching your card's interface.

How can I confirm the onboard VIA VT1708 audio is active after assembly?

Enter the BIOS and verify High Definition Audio is enabled, then check Windows Device Manager for the VT1708 device and test 7.1-channel output.
