For something priced like this, it's a pretty okay design. Take note of the metal covers on the primary x16 PCI-Express slots show off a bit. They provide sturdier and stronger slots, handy for very heavy graphics cards.

The design even invokes some red LED lights and isolated (lit) accent surrounding the audio circuitry.

So here we can spot the PCI-Express slots a bit better. These are configured as:

  • 1 x PCIe 3.0 x16 slots
    • Ryzen series processors support x16 mode
    • Ryzen 200G / A-series/ Athlon processors support x8 mode
  •  2 x PCIe 2.0 x1 slots

Again, your choice in the processor will define how many PCI-Express lanes you'll get.

The audio chip used is the Realtek ALC887 that offers 7.1-channel High Definition audio, it has been enhanced with some higher grade capacitors.

DDR4 memory wise the sky is the limit:

  • 2 x DDR4 memory slots, support up to 32GB
  • Supports DDR4 1866/ 2133/ 2400/ 2667(OC)/ 2933(OC)/ 3200(OC)+ MHz
  • Dual channel memory architecture
  • Supports non-ECC UDIMM memory
  • Supports ECC UDIMM memory (non-ECC mode)
