GIGABYTE H410M H DDR4 Intel Motherboard

The Gigabyte H410M H is a Micro ATX motherboard built around the Intel H410 Express Chipset and designed for 10th Generation Intel Core processors in the LGA1200 socket. It accepts the full range of 10th Gen Intel CPUs — from Core i9 and i7 down to Core i5, i3, Pentium, and Celeron — giving builders a wide choice of processors on a compact, budget-conscious platform. Memory support is handled by two DDR4 DIMM slots with a dual-channel architecture, accommodating up to 64 GB of system RAM (up to 32 GB per slot). Core i9 and i7 processors unlock speeds of DDR4 2933, 2666, 2400, and 2133 MHz, while Core i5, i3, Pentium, and Celeron processors support up to DDR4 2666 MHz. XMP profiles are also recognised for compatible modules. Storage flexibility is covered by one M.2 Socket 3 connector (M key, supporting 2242/2260/2280 form factors in either SATA or PCIe x2 mode) alongside four SATA 6 Gb/s ports. For graphics, a single PCIe 3.0 x16 slot handles discrete cards, backed by two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots for additional expansion. Integrated display output is provided through onboard Intel HD Graphics, with 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 compliant). Connectivity on the rear panel includes 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 1, 4 × USB 2.0/1.1, HDMI, D-Sub, PS/2 keyboard/mouse, RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet (Realtek GbE), and 3 audio jacks. Audio is managed by a Realtek ALC887 High Definition Audio codec supporting up to 7.1-channel output. Gigabyte's Smart Fan 5 technology allows independent fan control based on multiple thermal sensors, while the Fan Stop feature lets compatible fans run silently under light loads. An onboard RGB LED strip header enables basic ambient lighting. The UEFI BIOS is powered by a licensed AMI implementation stored on a 128 Mbit flash chip. The Q-Flash utility allows BIOS updates without installing a CPU, memory, or graphics card. The board ships with the Gigabyte App Center ecosystem, including @BIOS, EasyTune, Fast Boot, Game Boost, Smart Backup, and Xpress Install.
