LGA 1200 ATX motherboard for Intel Core

The board uses the Intel Z590 chipset and fits LGA 1200 processors from the 10 and 11 generations alongside Pentium Gold and Celeron chips. It delivers four DIMM slots that accept dual-channel DDR4 up to 128GB total capacity. The ATX layout provides one PCIe x16 slot driven by the CPU plus one PCIe x4 and two PCIe x1 slots from the chipset.

Bundled hardware changes installation scope

The package ships with the motherboard, a CMOS battery, one SATA cable and the chassis I/O back panel. A WiFi antenna is also included because the board has a built-in WiFi module. No other accessories such as additional cables, brackets or driver media are supplied, so builders must source any extra SATA cables, M.2 screws or RGB headers separately.

Suits high-memory overclocking builds not compact

The 128GB ceiling and extensive DDR4 frequency ladder appeal to enthusiasts pushing memory speeds with 10 or 11 generation CPUs. The single CPU-driven x16 slot limits multi-GPU configurations, and the ATX footprint rules out small-form-factor cases. Users needing more than one full-speed x16 link or a smaller board should consider alternative chipsets or form factors.

Questions about this item

Will the CMOS battery need replacing and how often?

The board ships with a CMOS battery; typical life is several years before a swap is needed.

What limits sustained PCIe 4.0 x16 throughput with an 11th Gen CPU?

The CPU-linked PCIe 4.0 x16 slot caps bandwidth at 4.0 x16; chipset lanes remain at 3.0 x4.

How much heat and noise does the 2.5 GbE controller add under all-day load?

The Intel I225-V 2.5 Gbps LAN runs cool and silent; no active cooling is required on the motherboard.
