The Intel Z490 chipset is the flagship chipset for Intel 10th generation Core processors, codename Comet Lake. It supports two graphics cards, the most USB ports and is required for overclocking. These particular boards are small form factor mini-ITX designs which only support a single expansion card.

The Intel Z390 chipset is the flagship chipset for Intel 9th generation Core processors, codename Coffee Lake. It supports two graphics cards, the most USB ports and is required for overclocking. These particular boards are full size ATX designs with maximum expandability.

Please Note: Despite utilising the same LGA1151 socket as 200 & 100 Series Motherboards, ONLY Intel 8th and 9th gen 'Coffee Lake' CPUs are compatible with these Intel Z370 Motherboards.

The Intel B365 chipset is a mid-range chipset for Intel 8th and 9th generation Core processors. Like the H370 and B360 chipsets, B365 does not support overclocking only supports a single graphics card. It supports RAID, Intel Optane Memory & 5Gbps USB 3.1 Gen1. Another notable trade-off with B365, is that the chipset supplies less PCIe 3.0 Lanes for other devices than both of the more expensive Z370 & H370 chipsets. These particular boards are full size ATX designs with full expandability.

The Intel B360 chipset is the next step-down from the H370 chipset for Intel 8th generation Core processors, codename Coffee Lake. Like the H370 chipset, B360 does not support overclocking & usually only supports a single graphics card (although some of these motherboards may support 2x AMD Radeon Graphics Card in CrossFire - Check Specs. for details). Its main difference from the chipsets above are it loses support for RAID, but it does however maintain support for Intel Optane Memory & 10Gbps USB 3.1 Gen2. Another notable trade-off with B360, is that the chipset supplies less PCIe 3.0 Lanes for other devices than both of the more expensive Z370 & H370 chipsets. These particular boards are full-size ATX designs for maximum expandability.

The Intel H310 chipset is the entry-level model for Intel 8th generation Core processors, codename Coffee Lake. Being the most affordable & basic of all the Intel 300 Series chipsets, these motherboards only support a single Graphics card, and do not support RAID, Intel Optane Memory, 10Gbps USB 3.1 Gen2, or overclocking. The extra PCIe lanes provided by the chipset are limited to PCI2 Gen2, however H310 still supports the now ubiquitous 5Gbps USB 3.1 Gen1 (formerly known as USB 3.0) & enables users to build a system around the new Intel Coffee Lake CPUs on a shoe-string budget, retaining the core functionality required for home or office PCs. These particular boards are smaller micro-ATX designs with middling expandability.

The Intel B250 chipset is the most affordable chipset for Intel 7th generation Core processors, codename Kaby Lake. Compared to the more expensive chipsets B250 has fewer PCI-E lanes, so only supports a single graphics card, fewer USB ports and does not support RAID or overclocking. These particular boards are full size ATX designs with maximum expandability.

The Intel H110 chipset is the entry-level model for LG1151 Intel Core CPUs based on the Skylake architecture. Like the H170 chipset, the H110 only supports a single graphics card and does not support overclocking or RAID. However it does still support UBSB 3, and with its low cost allows you to build a Skylake PC on a tight budget. 28/09/15

Please note: In order to use a 7th Generation 'Kaby Lake' Intel CPU with these Motherboards, you will need to ensure you are running the latest BIOS version before installing the CPU.

The X299 chipset is Intel's flagship model for extreme desktop systems including gaming PCs and content creation workstations. With its LGA 2066 socket, this chipset supports Intel's most powerful desktop CPUs from the Skylake X and Kaby Lake X ranges. It supports quad-channel DDR4 memory, providing unparalled memory bandwidth. With up to 44 PCI-E 3.0 lanes available, these motherboards deliver masses of bandwidth for SLI and CrossFireX configurators, offering unrestricted performance in games and graphic intensive content creation applications. With heaps of USB 3.0, SATA 6Gb/s ports and overclocking features these motherboards are the ultimate platform for high-performance desktop PCs. These particular X299 models are ATX or larger for full-size desktop PCs.

Despite using the new Socket 2066, the external layout is the same as Socket 2011-3, so you can use any of these coolers with your new Socket 2066 motherboard.
