Z390 chipset motherboard

This ATX board uses the Intel Z390 chipset and an LGA 1151 socket for 9th and 8th generation Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron processors. It targets builders who want a full-size platform with high memory capacity and multiple expansion slots.

Dual-channel DDR4 up to 4400 MHz

Four memory slots support dual-channel DDR4 at speeds up to 4400 MHz for a total of 128 GB. The layout and heatsink design help maintain stability during extended workloads rather than only brief bursts.

Three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots and six SATA III ports

The board provides three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots operating in x16/x0/x4 or x8/x8/x4 modes plus three PCIe 3.0 x1 slots. Six SATA III ports and an M.2 interface give plenty of storage options, while Realtek ALC1220P-VB2 delivers 7.1 channel audio and Intel I219-V handles Gigabit LAN.

Questions about this item

How hot and loud does the Intel Z390 chipset and Realtek ALC1220P-VB2 audio area get under all-day load?

The board uses passive heatsinks on the Intel Z390 chipset and voltage regulators, so there is no chipset fan to spin up. Noise comes only from your CPU cooler and case fans. Heat output scales with the processor you install and the 128 GB DDR4 4400 MHz memory population.

Which DDR4 memory kits and LGA 1151 processor must I already have for this motherboard to POST?

You need a 9th or 8th Generation Intel Core, Pentium Gold or Celeron CPU in the LGA 1151 package plus dual-channel DDR4 modules up to 4400 MHz. The four slots accept 128 GB total. A PSU with 24-pin ATX and 8-pin EPS connectors, a chassis with ATX mounting points and your own SATA drives complete the minimum build.

Will my existing SATA III SSDs, PCIe 3.0 graphics card and USB 3.1 Gen 1 peripherals work without adapters?

Yes. Six SATA III ports and one M.2 SATA interface connect current SATA drives directly. Three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots (x16/x0/x4 or x8/x8/x4) and three PCIe 3.0 x1 slots accept legacy graphics and add-in cards. Rear I/O provides five USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) ports and four USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports for older peripherals.
