Buying guide

Picking a desktop motherboard

  1. DDR4 or DDR5 version

    Some LGA1700 boards come in separate DDR4 and DDR5 versions, like the MSI PRO B760-P WIFI DDR4, and each takes only its own memory type.

  2. Chipset tier

    Intel Z-series boards allow processor overclocking; B- and H-series boards suit stock-speed builds with fewer PCIe lanes and ports.

  3. All-in-one boards

    Boards for all-in-ones like the EliteOne 800 G3 are built around that chassis, display connector and cooling, and fit only that model.

Frequently asked questions

Will a new processor work in my existing board?

If the socket matches and the board's BIOS supports it. AM4 boards, for example, often need a BIOS update before they'll run Ryzen 5000 processors, and support on older chipsets varies by board maker.

Can I put a retail motherboard in an OEM desktop case?

Sometimes. HP, Dell and Lenovo cases often use proprietary front-panel connectors, power supplies with non-standard plugs or custom board sizes, so a standard ATX or micro-ATX board may not fit or connect.

Does a desktop motherboard come with an I/O shield?

Retail boards ship with one or have it built in. OEM service boards usually don't, because the I/O shield is part of the system's chassis.
