Motherboard properties
Form factor i Form factor In der Computertechnik ist der Formfaktor eine Angabe über Größe und Befestigungsmöglichkeiten eines Bauteils, das in einem Computer Verwendung findet. Durch diese Standardisierung können verschiedene Komponenten einfach zusammengefügt und ausgetauscht werden. More information...	ATX i ATX ATX (Advanced Technology eXtended) is a motherboard form factor specification developed by Intel in 1995 to improve on previous de facto standards like the AT form factor. More information...
CPU socket i CPU socket A CPU socket or CPU slot is a mechanical component that provides mechanical and electrical connections between a microprocessor and a printed circuit board (PCB). This allows the CPU to be replaced without soldering. Common sockets have retention clips that apply a constant force, which must be overcome when a device is inserted. For chips with a large number of pins, either zero-insertion force (ZIF) sockets or land grid array (LGA) sockets are used instead. These designs apply a compression force once either a handle (for ZIF type) or a surface plate (LGA type) is put into place. This provides superior mechanical retention while avoiding the risk of bending pins when inserting the chip into the socket. More information...	LGA 1151
Chipset i Chipset Der Chipsatz unterstützt den Prozessor bei seiner Aufgabe. More information...	Intel Z270
UEFI BIOS i UEFI BIOS The Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. UEFI is meant as a replacement for the Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) firmware interface, present in all IBM PC-compatible personal computers. In practice, most UEFI images have legacy support for BIOS services. UEFI can be used to allow remote diagnostics and repair of computers, even without another operating system. More information...	Yes

Memory i Memory Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. It is a core function and fundamental component of computers. More information...
Number of memory modules i Number of memory modules Ein Speichermodul oder Speicherriegel ist eine kleine Leiterplatte, auf der mehrere Speicherbausteine (Dynamisches RAM in Form von integrierten Schaltkreisen) aufgelötet sind. Speichermodule bilden oder erweitern den Arbeitsspeicher elektronischer Geräte wie Computer oder Drucker und werden dort in speziell dafür vorgesehene Steckplätze gesteckt. More information...	4 x
Max. memory i Max. memory Ein Datenspeicher oder Speichermedium dient zur Speicherung von Daten beziehungsweise Informationen. Der Begriff Speichermedium wird auch als Synonym für einen konkreten Datenträger verwendet. More information...	64 GB
Memory chip i Memory chip Random-access memory is a form of computer data storage. A random-access device allows stored data to be accessed directly in any random order. In contrast, other data storage media such as hard disks, CDs, DVDs and magnetic tape, as well as early primary memory types such as drum memory, read and write data only in a predetermined order, consecutively, because of mechanical design limitations. Therefore the time to access a given data location varies significantly depending on its physical location. More information...	DDR4-2400 , DDR4-2133
Max. RAM OC i Max. RAM OC Describes how much memory can be overclocked (maxium RAM overclocking).	3800 MHz
Memory type i Memory type DDR-SDRAM („Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory“) ist ein Typ von Random Access Memory (RAM), den es aktuell in drei Kategorien gibt. DDR-SDRAM mit 184 Kontakten, DDR2-SDRAM mit 240 Kontakten und DDR3-SDRAM ebenfalls mit 240 Kontakten. Verwendet werden sie hauptsächlich für Speichermodule des DIMM- bzw. SO-DIMM-Standards als Arbeitsspeicher in PCs und Laptops. More information...	DDR4-RAM
Channel Architektur	2 i 2 More information...
RAM buffer i RAM buffer In addition to bandwidth and capacity variants, modules can 1. Optionally implement ECC, which is an extra data byte lane used for correcting minor errors and detecting major errors for better reliability. Modules with ECC are identified by an additional ECC in their designation. 2. Be "registered", which improves signal integrity (and hence potentially clock speed and physical slot capacity) by electrically buffering the signals at a cost of an extra clock of increased latency. Those modules are identified by an additional R in their designation, whereas non-registered (a.k.a. "unbuffered") RAM may be identified by an additional U in the designation. 3. Be Fully buffered modules, which are designated by F or FB and do not have the same notch position as other classes. Fully buffered modules cannot be used with motherboards that are made for registered modules, and the different notch position physically prevents their insertion.	unbuffered
Memory form factor i Memory form factor A DIMM or dual in-line memory module, comprises a series of dynamic random access memory integrated circuits. These modules are mounted on a printed circuit board and designed for use in personal computers, workstations and servers. DIMMs began to replace SIMMs (single in-line memory modules) as the predominant type of memory module as Intel P5-based Pentium processors began to gain market share. The main difference between SIMMs and DIMMs is that DIMMs have separate electrical contacts on each side of the module, while the contacts on SIMMs on both sides are redundant. Another difference is that standard SIMMs have a 32-bit data path, while standard DIMMs have a 64-bit data path. More information...	DIMM 288

More information...
PCI express version (max.) i PCI express version (max.) PCI Express (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express), officially abbreviated as PCIe, is a computer expansion card standard designed to replace the older PCI, PCI-X, and AGP bus standards. PCIe has numerous improvements over the aforementioned bus standards, including higher maximum system bus throughput, lower I/O pin count and smaller physical footprint, better performance-scaling for bus devices, a more detailed error detection and reporting mechanism, and native hot-plug functionality. More recent revisions of the PCIe standard support hardware I/O virtualization. More information...	3
PCI Express x16 i PCI Express x16 PCI Express („Peripheral Component Interconnect Express“, abgekürzt: PCIe oder PCI-E) ist ein Erweiterungsstandard zur Verbindung von Peripheriegeräten mit dem Chipsatz eines Hauptprozessors. PCIe ist der Nachfolger von PCI, PCI-X und AGP und bietet im Vergleich zu seinen Vorgängern eine höhere Datenübertragungsrate pro Pin. Während ihrer Entwicklung wurde die Schnittstelle „3GIO“ genannt, was für „3rd Generation Input/Output“ steht. More information...	3 x
PCI Express x1 i PCI Express x1 PCI Express, officially abbreviated as PCI-E or PCIe, is a computer expansion card interface format introduced by Intel in 2004. PCI Express was designed to replace the general-purpose PCI expansion bus, the high-end PCI-X bus and the AGP graphics card interface. Unlike previous PC expansion interfaces, rather than being a bus it is structured around point-to-point serial links called lanes. More information...	3 x
