The ASUS PRIME H370-Plus in detail
The ASUS PRIME H370-Plus Micro-ATX motherboard for the Intel Core 8000 series processors has a total of two PCIe x16 slots, one of which is connected to the chipset with a full 16 lanes, while the other with four data lines is connected. The board supports AMD's CrossFire technology and offers the option of installing multiple graphics cards. For additional plug-in and expansion cards, the board also has two PCIe x1 slots.

Up to 64 GB RAM can be operated in the four DIMM slots for DDR4 RAM in fast dual-channel mode. RAM modules up to a 6666 MHz memory clock are supported by the Coffee Lake CPUs. Furthermore, the motherboard offers an M.2 slot, which is connected to the chipset via four PCIe 3.0 lanes and supports the extremely fast NVMe SSDs. The NVMe protocol allows a data transfer rate of almost 4 GB / s. This makes M.2 PCIe SSDs up to eight times faster than SATA 6G SSDs! Six SATA 6G ports also allow you to connect to conventional drives such as SSDs, HDDs and optical drives.

The ASUS PRIME H370-Plus has a particularly thin and two-way plug-in USB 3.1-type C port on the I / O panel and two USB 3.1 Type A ports. USB 3.1 ports are twice as fast as conventional USB 3.0 ports with maximum speeds of 10 Gbps! Two USB 3.0 and two USB 2.0 ports allow you to connect additional peripherals. A LAN socket for LAN chip and audio outputs for the audio chip are also located on the I / O panel. The external connection repertoire is rounded off by a DVI, HDMI and D-Sub connection for image reproduction via the integrated graphics unit of the processor.

Internally, the motherboard comes with a USB 3.0 header and two USB 2.0 headers and a TPM header. In addition to a 4-pin header for CPU cooler, the board provides three 4-pin headers for case fans.
