GIGABYTE H410-H V2 DDR4 Intel Motherboard

The Gigabyte H410M H V2 is a Micro ATX motherboard built around the Intel H470 Express Chipset and the LGA1200 socket, designed to support the full breadth of 10th Generation Intel Core processors — from Celeron and Pentium through Core i3, i5, i7, and Core i9. Whether you are assembling a compact home or office PC, or building a budget-conscious productivity workstation, this board covers the essentials without unnecessary complexity. Memory support is handled by two DDR4 DIMM slots capable of running in dual-channel configuration, with a maximum capacity of 64 GB (up to 32 GB per slot). Core i9 and i7 processors unlock speeds up to DDR4-2933 MHz, while i5, i3, Pentium, and Celeron processors top out at DDR4-2666 MHz. XMP profiles are also supported for compatible kits. For storage, the board provides one M.2 connector (Socket 3, M key, 2242/2260/2280) supporting both SATA and PCIe x4/x2 NVMe SSDs, alongside four SATA 6 Gb/s ports with RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 support. Intel Optane Memory readiness is built in for those who wish to use it. Display output is handled by the integrated Intel HD Graphics processor through one D-Sub port (up to 1920×1200 @ 60 Hz) and one HDMI 1.4 port (up to 4096×2160 @ 30 Hz, HDCP 2.3), enabling simultaneous dual-display configurations without a discrete GPU. Audio is delivered through a Realtek HD Audio CODEC supporting up to 7.1-channel output. The board incorporates high-quality audio capacitors and a PCB-level noise guard to separate sensitive analog circuitry from digital interference. Networking is managed by an Intel GbE LAN chip (1 Gbit/100 Mbit) paired with the bundled cFosSpeed traffic-shaping software, which prioritises latency-sensitive traffic for smoother online experiences. The Smart Fan 5 system provides multiple temperature sensor inputs, hybrid PWM/voltage fan headers, and a Fan Stop function that silences fans when temperatures fall below a user-defined threshold. An RGB LED strip header is included for basic lighting customisation. Expansion is covered by one PCIe 3.0 x16 slot (running at full x16), two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots, four USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports (2 rear, 2 internal), and six USB 2.0/1.1 ports (4 rear, 2 internal). The rear panel also carries one PS/2 combo port, D-Sub, HDMI, RJ-45, and three audio jacks. The BIOS uses a licensed AMI UEFI implementation stored in a 256 Mbit flash chip, compatible with PnP 1.0a, DMI 2.7, WfM 2.0, SM BIOS 2.7, and ACPI 5.0. Gigabyte APP Center software — including @BIOS, EasyTune, Fast Boot, Game Boost, Smart Backup, and Q-Flash — is supported.
