Target platform

This Micro ATX motherboard uses the Intel B250 chipset and an LGA 1151 socket to support 6th and 7th generation Core i3, i5 and i7 processors alongside Pentium and Celeron models. It is built for compact desktop builds that need standard expansion in a smaller footprint. The board accepts dual-channel DDR4 memory at 2400 or 2133MHz up to a total of 32GB.

Bundled extras

The package supplies a CMOS battery, one SATA cable and a chassis I/O back panel so the rear ports are properly shielded. A WiFi antenna is also included when the board has a built-in wireless module. No driver discs, manuals or additional brackets are provided in the box.

Installation notes

The Micro ATX form factor fits most standard cases, but verify standoff alignment before mounting the board. Connect the 24-pin and 4-pin power cables, seat memory in the correct dual-channel slots and attach the supplied I/O shield from inside the case. Missing front-panel header documentation is the most common cause of a non-booting build.

Questions about this item

Will the CMOS battery need replacing on the B250M ICAFE?

The board ships with a CMOS battery included; replace it when the system loses time or BIOS settings after power-off.

What caps the DDR4 memory on this board?

Two DDR4 slots support up to 32 GB total at 2400 or 2133 MHz dual-channel.

How hot or loud does the B250M ICAFE run under all-day load?

Passive chipset cooling and the Realtek RTL8111H LAN keep noise low; power draw follows the installed CPU and peripherals.
