ASRock H610M-H2/M.2 D5 DDR5 mATX Motherboard (LGA 1700, Intel H610)

The ASRock H610M-H2/M.2 D5 is a Micro ATX motherboard designed for Intel LGA 1700 processors, built around the Intel H610 chipset and supporting DDR5 system memory. Its compact mATX form factor makes it a practical choice for space-efficient desktop builds — whether for a home office system, an entry-level productivity machine, or a cost-conscious workstation. The board pairs well with 12th, 13th, or 14th Generation Intel Core processors that use the LGA 1700 socket, giving builders flexibility when selecting a CPU without needing a premium chipset. The inclusion of an M.2 slot — as indicated by the model designation — allows installation of an NVMe solid-state drive, enabling faster storage performance compared to traditional SATA drives. The DDR5 memory support (denoted by the D5 suffix) positions this board on the current-generation memory standard, offering higher bandwidth headroom over DDR4 platforms at an accessible price point. The board ships in a black PCB finish and is listed as in stock, making it a readily available option in the Indian market at ₹5,499. Its H610 chipset is Intel’s entry-level offering in the 600-series lineup, providing essential connectivity and platform stability for everyday computing tasks without overclocking support — a trade-off that contributes to the board’s affordable pricing. For buyers seeking an ASRock mATX motherboard that supports DDR5 memory on the LGA 1700 platform without the cost of higher-tier chipsets like B660, H670, or Z690, the H610M-H2/M.2 D5 represents a focused, no-frills foundation for a functional Intel build. **Verified Specifications:** – Form Factor: Micro ATX (mATX) – CPU Socket: LGA 1700 – Chipset: Intel H610 – Memory Type: DDR5 – Storage Expansion: M.2 slot – Color: Black – Brand: ASRock
