ASUS Prime B760M-K DDR5 Intel Motherboard

The ASUS Prime B760M-K DDR5 is a Micro-ATX motherboard built on Intel's B760 chipset, designed to seat 12th, 13th, and 14th Generation Intel Core processors as well as Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs in the LGA1700 socket. Its compact 9.6 × 8.3-inch (24.4 × 21.1 cm) footprint makes it well suited for space-conscious builds without sacrificing the connectivity modern systems demand. Memory support is handled by two DDR5 DIMM slots capable of hosting up to 96 GB of non-ECC unbuffered DDR5. Speeds range from native DDR5-4800 all the way to DDR5-8000 under overclock with Intel XMP or ASUS AEMP II profiles, giving builders headroom to push memory performance well beyond baseline. Die ECC functionality is also present on compatible DDR5 modules. Storage options are generous for this class of board. Two PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 slots (Key M, supporting 2242/2260/2280 form factors) deliver transfer speeds of up to 64 Gbps each, while four SATA 6 Gb/s ports provide additional drive capacity. Intel Rapid Storage Technology enables SATA RAID 0/1/5/10 configurations. Network performance is handled by a Realtek 2.5 Gb Ethernet controller, offering throughput well above standard Gigabit adapters for smoother file transfers and lower latency in networked tasks. The rear I/O panel provides four USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) Type-A ports and two USB 2.0 ports alongside HDMI 2.1 (supporting up to 4K@60Hz) and a VGA output for integrated graphics compatibility. A PS/2 combo port rounds out legacy peripheral support. Audio is managed by a Realtek HD codec delivering 7.1 surround sound with up to 24-bit/192 kHz playback, backed by audio shielding, premium capacitors, and dedicated PCB layers to reduce interference. Two Addressable Gen 2 headers and one Aura RGB header allow synchronised lighting control via ASUS Armoury Crate and Aura Sync. Cooling infrastructure includes a VRM heatsink with thermal pad, PCH heatsink, one 4-pin CPU fan header, and two 4-pin chassis fan headers, all configurable through Fan Xpert 2+ software or the UEFI BIOS. The DIGI+ VRM delivers stable, precisely regulated power delivery for demanding workloads. ASUS 5X Protection III features—including LANGuard, overvoltage protection, and SafeSlot Core—help protect connected components.
