Socket LGA 1151 and Z370 chipset

This motherboard is built around the Intel Z370 chipset and the LGA 1151 socket. It targets 8th Gen Intel Core, Pentium and Celeron processors. The E-ATX form factor provides four PCIe 3.0 x16 slots and one PCIe 3.0 x1 slot for multi-GPU or expansion cards.

Dual-channel DDR4 up to 4133 OC and storage limits

Memory runs in dual-channel mode with a long list of overclocked speeds up to 4133 MHz and standard speeds down to 2133 MHz. Maximum capacity is 64 GB. Storage connects through one U.2 interface, three M.2 interfaces and six SATA III ports. RAID support is available on the SATA array.

Check CPU generation, cooler clearance

Verify that your processor is an 8th Gen Intel Core, Pentium or Celeron with LGA 1151 packaging. Ensure your chassis accepts an E-ATX board and that your cooler clears the VRM heatsinks. Confirm your power supply delivers the required 8-pin and 24-pin connectors for the board.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 64GB DDR4 maximum or a lower capacity kit for this Z370 board?

The board supports up to 64GB across four slots, so a 4×16GB kit fills it completely while a 2×16GB kit leaves room for later expansion.

What does the DDR4 4133 MHz (OC) headline speed mean once the memory is installed in a real machine?

Speeds above 2667 MHz are overclocked profiles; you must enable XMP in the BIOS and have a CPU and memory kit rated for that frequency to reach 4133 MHz.

How do the PCIe 3.0 x16 slots and the M.2 interfaces limit storage and GPU bandwidth in practice?

The four PCIe 3.0 x16 slots share CPU lanes, so running multiple GPUs reduces each to x8 or x4, while the three M.2 drives connect through the chipset and share its bandwidth with the six SATA III ports.
