According to the source, the board layout is optimized for open stands. The processor power subsystem includes two 8-pin EPS connectors and a 12-channel controller with tantalum capacitors and a DrMOS regulator in each channel, rated for amperage up to 100 A.

Each of the two memory channels has only one DDR4 DIMM slot. Optimization of the wiring between the processor and memory modules allows you to count on the highest frequencies.

The board also includes controls for features requested by potential buyers, such as BIOS settings profile selection, cold restart, manual BIOS chip selection, etc.

In terms of equipment, the board has four PCIe x16 slots, two of which can function as Gen 4 with an 11th Gen Intel (Rocket Lake) processor. If one of them is busy, it works in x16 mode, if both – the lines are divided equally. The other two slots are Gen 3, connected to the Z590. One of them works in x4 mode, the other – in x1 mode.

There are three M.2 slots for drives, each with four PCIe lanes. One of the slots is connected to the processor and also supports Gen 4 when used with Rocket Lake. You can also note the Realtek ALC1220-VB audio codec and 2.5 GbE and Wi-Fi 6E network connections. The manufacturer does not name the price of the novelty.
