ASUS EX-B760M-V5 DDR4 Intel Motherboard

The ASUS EX-B760M-V5 D4 is a Micro-ATX motherboard built on the Intel B760 chipset, designed for use with 12th and 13th Generation Intel Core processors via the LGA1700 socket. It also supports Intel Pentium Gold and Celeron processors in the same socket, with compatibility for Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 and Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 where applicable. Memory support covers two DIMM slots accommodating up to 64 GB of DDR4 memory in dual-channel configuration. Native DDR4-3200 is supported alongside overclocked profiles up to DDR4-5333 (OC) via Intel XMP. Only non-ECC, unbuffered modules are compatible. Storage connectivity is a strong point of this board. Two M.2 Key-M slots — both supporting PCIe 4.0 x4 drives in 2242, 2260, and 2280 form factors — sit alongside four SATA 6 Gb/s ports. Intel Rapid Storage Technology enables SATA RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 configurations. Expansion slots include one PCIe 4.0 x16 slot (from the CPU) and two PCIe 4.0 x1 slots (from the B760 chipset). Display output is handled by one VGA and one HDMI port on the rear panel, useful for systems using Intel integrated graphics. Networking is provided by a Realtek 2.5 Gb Ethernet controller. Audio is delivered through a Realtek 7.1-channel surround sound HD Audio CODEC with dedicated PCB layers, audio shielding, and premium capacitors; it supports up to 24-bit/192 kHz playback. The rear I/O panel includes four USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, two USB 2.0 Type-A ports, three audio jacks, and a PS/2 combo port. Internal headers expand USB connectivity with one USB 3.2 Gen 1 header (two additional ports) and two USB 2.0 headers (four additional ports). ASUS 5X Protection III features include DIGI+ VRM digital power delivery, LANGuard surge protection on the Ethernet port, Overvoltage Protection, SafeSlot Core+ reinforced PCIe x16 slot, and a stainless-steel back I/O shield. Durability additions include a luminous anti-moisture coating on the PCB and USBGuard protection on rear USB ports. Assembly is aided by Q-DIMM single-latch memory slots, Q-Slot single-latch PCIe release, and Q-LED Core diagnostic LEDs. BIOS is UEFI AMI with 128 Mb Flash ROM. Wake- LAN via PME and PXE boot are supported.
