The ASUS PRIME B360M-C in detail
The ASUS PRIME B360M-C mATX motherboard has a PCIe x16 slot connected to the chipset with a full 16 lanes. For plug-in and expansion cards, the board has one PCIe.1.0 x16 slot and two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots.

The two M.2 slots connected via four PCIe 3.0 lanes support the NVMe protocol and, in combination with a corresponding M.2 SSD, enable a data transfer rate of almost 4 GB / s. This is about eight times faster than a SATA 6G connected SSD! Additional drives such as SSDs, HDDs and optical drives can be connected via six SATA 3.0 ports. A maximum of 64 GB of RAM with a clock speed of up to 2,666 MHz can be accommodated in four DDR4 DIMM slots.

The ASUS PRIME B360M-C provides four USB 3.1 ports on the I / O panel. USB 3.1 ports are twice as fast as conventional USB 3.0 ports with maximum speeds of 10 Gbps! Other peripheral devices can be connected via two USB 2.0 ports.

One DVI, one D-Sub and HDMI port for image reproduction via the integrated graphics unit of the processor are also located on the I / O panel. For the output of the on-board sound, the motherboard has three 3.5-mm jack outputs. Internal connections include a COM port, TPM, power LED and speaker header, three fan connectors, two USB 2.0 and one USB 3.0 headers. The mainboard also has LEDs for illumination and provides a RGB LED header for control via the ASUS Aura Sync.
