New Skylake Products and Upcoming Kaby Lake Improvements


Due to the interest generated by our Skylake line release...

We have decided to add even more products, like the Q170 ATX board with 4 PCI slots (for those diehard PCI lovers out there).

We are also offering this version of the board with the C236 chipset, adding ECC memory and XEON processor support - making it a high-performance workstation. This is a powerful lineup!

If you are not sure about the new feature set and processing power, try our new H110 mini-ITX board. It has the same basic functionality as the Q170 chipset, but at a lower price point. Some of the features that were removed form the H110 include software RAID and triple display support - but still an impressive set of features.
 

We also made sure to add support for the new Kaby Lake processors to all of our Q170 and C236 boards.

With a new and improved graphics engine and DDR4-2400 support, a noticeable boost is seen with the onboard graphics quality. This new processor line is set for release Q1' 2017.
