Increased performance and board stability
The motherboard supports Intel 200S Boost technology, which significantly increases the performance of existing Intel Core Ultra processors through a BIOS update. This feature gives users the option of an effective upgrade without needing to replace hardware. The board features an eight-layer PCB with 2oz copper layers, ensuring stable signal paths and energy efficiency for long-term operation at maximum performance.
Powerful power delivery and overclocking potential
The power system uses a Dr.MOS design with modern Smart Power Stage technology, which optimises current and temperature monitoring for each phase to deliver smoother, cleaner power to the processor. The Hi-Density power connectors are designed to withstand higher currents than traditional connectors, providing a more stable system and reducing risk during demanding overclocking. The board is equipped with high-quality 20K 1000µF capacitors, ensuring long life and power stability. The Memory OC Shield is a feature that reduces electromagnetic interference that could affect memory overclocking and optimises the layout to increase stability during high-frequency operation.
Storage options and data transfer speed
The board offers a total of six M.2 slots, one of which supports the modern PCIe 5.0 standard with transfer speeds of up to 128Gb/s, allowing you to fully utilise the potential of future SSDs. The remaining slots support PCIe Gen4 x4 with speeds of 64Gb/s. All M.2 slots are equipped with extended aluminium heatsinks with a tool-less design for easy installation and efficient heat dissipation. The lower M.2 heatsinks dissipate heat through the PCB, maximising performance while maintaining system stability. There are also four SATA III connectors for connecting traditional storage devices. The board supports RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 for both SATA and M.2 NVMe devices, as well as Intel Volume Management Device technology.
Advanced cooling and thermal management
The intelligent cooling system automatically detects whether fans are operating in DC or PWM mode, which allows for fine-tuning of the speed curve for quieter operation. The board has seven 4-pin fan headers, with most supporting up to 3A (36W).

Choosing a motherboard
When choosing a motherboard (or mainboard), it's important to pay particular attention to the motherboard's socket type, form factor, and chipset. These are among the most crucial parameters and ensure the board's compatibility with the processor, expansion cards, and other components. The specific socket determines the choice of a suitable processor, while the remaining connectors dictate the selection of other components for your future computer.Specifications
