GIGABYTE B760M D2H DDR5 Intel Motherboard

The Gigabyte B760M D2H DDR5 is a Micro ATX motherboard built on the Intel B760 Express Chipset and designed for Intel LGA1700-socket processors spanning the 12th and 13th Generation Core, Pentium Gold, and Celeron families. Its compact 244 mm × 225 mm footprint makes it a practical choice for space-conscious builds without sacrificing the connectivity features typical of full-size boards. Power delivery is handled by a 6+2+1 phase hybrid digital VRM using low RDS MOSFETs, premium chokes, and capacitors engineered to improve transient response and reduce electrical oscillation—an important consideration when running higher-TDP 13th Gen processors in a smaller chassis. Memory support centres on two DDR5 DIMM slots operating in dual-channel configuration, accommodating up to 96 GB of system memory (48 GB per slot). The board supports a wide range of speeds from 4800 MT/s natively up to 7800 MT/s via overclocking, as well as XMP memory profiles. Gigabyte's DDR5 Auto Booster feature can automatically raise native DDR5 frequency under load with a single click, while the BIOS provides an extensive library of pre-tuned memory profiles for common DDR5 IC vendors. Storage options include two M.2 connectors (M2A_CPU and M2P_SB) both supporting PCIe 4.0 x4 type-2280 SSDs, supplemented by four SATA 6 Gb/s ports with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 configurations. The primary PCIe x16 slot runs at PCIe 4.0 full bandwidth from the CPU, and the slot features Gigabyte's EZ-Latch mechanism for tool-free graphics card removal. Two additional PCIe 3.0 x1 slots are provided via the chipset. Networking is handled by a Realtek 2.5GbE LAN chip supporting 2.5 Gbps, 1 Gbps, and 100 Mbps speeds. Display output from the integrated Intel HD Graphics processor is available through one HDMI 2.0 port (up to 4096×2160 @ 60 Hz) and one D-Sub port (up to 1920×1200 @ 60 Hz). Audio is provided by a Realtek High Definition Audio CODEC supporting up to 7.1-channel output with S/PDIF Out. USB connectivity totals six USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and eight USB 2.0/1.1 ports across rear panel and internal headers. The back panel also includes a PS/2 keyboard/mouse combo port. Smart Fan 6 manages up to three fan headers (one CPU, two system) with PWM/DC control, seven-point fan curves, FAN STOP functionality, and water-cooling flow rate detection. Q-Flash Plus allows BIOS updates without an installed CPU, memory, or graphics card—useful during initial platform bring-up. The board ships with a 128 Mbit AMI UEFI BIOS and is managed via Gigabyte Control Center software. ARGB and RGB LED headers are included for lighting customisation.
