Z370-OC PRO LGA 1151 ATX
This motherboard uses the Intel Z370 chipset and fits an LGA 1151 socket for 8th Gen Intel Core, Pentium and Celeron processors. It follows the ATX form factor and provides dual-channel DDR4 memory slots with a maximum capacity of 64GB. The board targets enthusiasts building a high-performance desktop platform.
Suits overclockers needing 4000+ MHz DDR4
Memory support reaches 4000 MHz and multiple intermediate overclocked steps down to 2133 MHz, giving headroom for tuned kits. Only one PCIe 3.0 x16 slot runs at full x16 speed; a second x16 slot operates at x4. Builders requiring multiple full-speed graphics cards should consider a different chipset.
64GB dual-channel DDR4 ceiling
Four DIMM slots accept up to 64GB total across the supported frequency range from 2133 to 4000 MHz. This limit defines whether the board can host the memory kit you plan to install.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the board is posting with the 8th Gen Intel Core CPU I installed?
Connect the 24-pin and 8-pin power cables, install one DDR4 stick in the first slot, attach a monitor to the GPU in the top PCIe 3.0 x16 slot, power on and watch for the BIOS splash screen on the display.
Which accessories are included and what must I source separately?
The box contains the motherboard, a CMOS battery, one SATA cable and the rear I/O shield; you still need a compatible LGA 1151 CPU, DDR4 memory modules, storage drives, a chassis, PSU and CPU cooler.
Which memory speed should I target for a stable dual-channel 64 GB kit?
The board validates DDR4 up to 4000 MHz when overclocked and runs 2133/2400/2667 MHz at JEDEC defaults; pick a 2 × 32 GB kit rated at 3200 MHz or 3600 MHz for a balance of compatibility and headroom.
