Technical & Policy Q&A

Common questions about this motherboard
What are the benefits of having 2 DDR5 DIMM slots instead of 4?+
With a 1 DIMM Per Channel (1 DPC) configuration, memory electrical signal trace distance is reduced and reflections are eliminated, allowing for higher DDR5 memory overclocking speeds up to 8000+ MT/s.
Does the primary M.2 slot support PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSDs?+
Yes. The top M.2 socket connects directly to the CPU with PCIe 5.0 x4 bandwidth and is equipped with a dedicated aluminum Thermal Guard heatsink.
Can this board fit into standard Micro-ATX cases?+
Yes, it complies with the standard 24.4 x 24.4 cm Micro-ATX form factor, making it compatible with virtually all Micro-ATX and Mid-Tower PC cases.
What is the difference between Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E on this motherboard?+
Wi-Fi 6E adds access to the dedicated, less congested 6 GHz wireless frequency band, delivering lower latency and less interference for competitive gaming.
Does it support AMD EXPO memory overclocking profiles?+
Yes. You can enable AMD EXPO in the BIOS with one click to run certified high-speed DDR5 memory kits at their rated speeds and timings.
Does AHW Store update the BIOS before shipping?+
Every motherboard ships sealed in its original retail packaging with the factory BIOS. Our engineers can flash the latest vendor BIOS free of charge on request when you order a CPU with the board, which guarantees first-boot compatibility with the newest supported CPU generation.
