Mini ITX - the best solution for the smallest computer units
The Mini ITX motherboard was designed for HTPCs, but is now also used in desktop computers for home and office use. The miniature dimensions of the Mini ITX board allow it to be used in Midi Tower, Mini Tower, Micro Tower, HTPC, Cube Tower and Slim housings. However, the board's small dimensions result in fewer available slots and ports.
Highest bandwidth with DDR4 memory
This motherboard model is compatible with DDR4 RAM. Currently, it is the most frequently chosen RAM standard, especially for new and efficient configurations. The DDR4 standard allows for much higher RAM bandwidth, which has a significant impact on computer performance.

Enjoy the fastest drives with the M.2 connector
Use fast and modern SSD drives connected to the M.2 connector. There is one M.2 slot on this motherboard, which allows you to connect an efficient SSD of any capacity. The drives are connected edgewise, directly to the motherboard, their dimensions are minimized, so they do not take up too much space inside the case.
Integrated graphics support
If we do not intend to use high-performance graphics cards, the integrated graphics supported by this motherboard will be sufficient for everyday use of the computer. However, you must remember that if you want to use this function, you must choose the appropriate processor model with a built-in graphics chip for your motherboard.
M.2 slot for optional Wi-Fi module

USB 3.2 Gen 1 standard
USB 3.2 Gen 1, previously also called USB 3.0 or USB 3.1 Gen 1, which provides fast data transfer up to 5 Gb/s. This popular and recognizable connector standard can be found in most laptops and desktop computers. USB backward compatibility allows us to connect also to newer or older standards of this connector.
Universal USB 2.0 port
Although USB 2.0 is an older generation of this connector, it is still very often used in modern computers. USB backward compatibility allows us to connect this plug also to newer standards of this interface, and the maximum bandwidth of 480 Mb/s is sufficient for basic applications.
