1. CPU socket The motherboard comes with a LGA1700 socket designed for 13th Gen Intel® Core™ Processors & 12th Gen Intel® Core™, Pentium® Gold and Celeron® Processors. Chapter 1 1-4 • Ensure that you install the correct CPU designed for LGA1700 socket only. DO NOT install a CPU designed for other sockets on the LGA1700 socket. • The CPU fits in only one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU into the socket to prevent bending the connectors on the socket and damaging the CPU.
2. DIMM slots The motherboard comes with Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMM) slots designed for DDR5 (Double Data Rate 5) memory modules. Chapter 1 A DDR5 memory module is notched differently from a DDR, DDR2, DDR3, or DDR4 module. DO NOT install a DDR, DDR2, DDR3, or DDR4 memory module to the DDR5 slot.
Memory configurations You may install 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB unbuffered and non‑ECC DDR5 DIMMs into the DIMM sockets. Chapter 1 You may install varying memory sizes in Channel A and Channel B. The system maps the total size of the lower-sized channel for the dual-channel configuration. Any excess memory from the higher-sized channel is then mapped for single-channel operation.
3. Expansion slots Chapter 1 Unplug the power cord before adding or removing expansion cards. Failure to do so may cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components. • Additional PCIe bifurcation and M.2 settings for RAID function are also supported when a Hyper M.2 x16 series card is installed. • For full details on the PCIe bifurcation, you may visit the support site at https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1037507/. • The Hyper M.2 X16 series card is sold separately.
