The ASUS ROG STRIX B860-I GAMING WIFI is a compact, ITX motherboard for Intel's Core Ultra 2 Series processors. Its limited size means it has very little internal expansion capability, but it does have a full PCI-Express 5.0 x16 slot for a video card and two DDR5 DIMM slots supporting a total of up to 96GB of memory. Two M.2 drives are supported, along with four SATA ports and a few headers for front USB ports.
For external connectivity, this board has both analog and digital audio outputs, 2.5Gb Ethernet, WiFi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, and eight USB ports of varying speeds (including two Type C, one of which supports Thunderbolt 4). There are also HDMI and DisplayPort outputs for use with the graphics built into Intel's Core Ultra processors, and the Thunderbolt port can output video too.
