The Asus Z170I Pro brings the efficiency of Intel's latest Skylake processors to even the smallest computers. Intel's continual improvements to power usage and onboard graphics capabilities can be very beneficial in small systems, where power supply capacity and room for dedicated video cards is limited. The onboard video supports HDMI and DisplayPort outputs, with support for dual monitors. Numerous other connections are supported as well: USB 2.0 & 3.0, gigabit Ethernet, WiFi, Bluetooth, and both digital and analog audio. It is equipped with a single PCI-Express x16 slot, capable of housing a dedicated video card or other expansion device (chassis permitting).
William George (Marketing Project Manager) Says:
Despite having the word "Gaming" written on it, this motherboard is great for a wide range of applications and uses. It has a solid mix of connection options built-in, which is always helpful on smaller boards where expansion / add-on space is limited.
