Asus PRIME B760M-A D4 (90MB1D00-M0EAY0)

A compact micro-ATX motherboard from Asus that boasts an affordable price. Like many brothers in the PRIME series, it is intended primarily for the creation of office and home computers, so the main emphasis is placed on the quality of materials, the efficiency of the cooling system and high reliability. It is equipped with a high-quality cooling system with VRM and PCH radiators, additional cooling for power elements and support for the Fan Xpert 4 utility for point-by-point tuning of case cooling.

The mid-range Intel B760 chipset is used here as a control controller. The Asus PRIME B760M-A D4 is equipped with a new generation Intel LGA 1700 processor socket and is designed to be paired with 12th and 13th generation Intel Core/Pentium/Celeron hybrid multi-core processors. Despite being entry-level, it can handle overclocked DDR4 RAM and PCI-E 4.0 reactive SSDs, making it an interesting option for an entry-level gaming PC that doesn't want to manually overclock.

Unlike most models of the micro-ATX format, this option is able to "take on board" up to 128 GB of DDR4 RAM with a maximum frequency of 5333 MHz (4x32 GB). To create a disk array, several M.2 ports and 4 standard SATA 3 connectors are available. Network traffic is processed by a Realtek controller with a bandwidth of 2.5 GB / s and a pre-installed Wi-Fi 6 class wireless receiver. In addition, the Digi + automatic voltage stabilization system should be noted separately, Fan Xpert 4 utilities for fine-tuning the operation of case fans or a water pump and support for proprietary OptiMem 2 technology to optimize RAM performance.
