Processor parameter for referance only

Notice

Power Supply Requirement:

A 24-pin ATX and a 4-pin ATX 12V power supply must be connected simultaneously to power on the motherboard.

PCIe x1 Slot & M.2 WiFi Slot Sharing:

The PCIe x1 slot shares the PCIe 3.0 x1 signal with the M.2 WiFi slot.

⚠️ These two slots cannot be used at the same time.

SFF-8643 Cable Compatibility:

Please purchase the SFF-8643 cable bundle from our store.

Many SFF-8643 cables available on the market have incorrect signal sequences and will not work with this motherboard.

📌 Overview
