ASRock B860I LIGHTNING WIFI PHANTOM GAMING LGA1851 DDR5 Mini-ITX Motherboard
The ASRock B860I LIGHTNING WIFI PHANTOM GAMING LGA1851 DDR5 Mini-ITX Motherboard squeezes a full Intel Core Ultra Series 2 platform into a 17.0cm square board, made for compact gaming PCs and small-form-factor builds that refuse to compromise on speed. Thunderbolt 4, PCIe 5.0 graphics and storage, WiFi 6E and a heavyweight power design all fit inside a Mini-ITX footprint.

Reinforced PCIe 5.0 Steel Slot and Thunderbolt 4 in Mini-ITX
The reinforced steel PCIe 5.0 slot uses extra anchor points and a stronger latch to hold heavy graphics cards securely in a small case that gets moved around, while the rear Thunderbolt 4 and USB4 Type-C port handles high-speed storage and display output from a single connector. A thermistor cable and header add an extra temperature monitoring point for builders who fine-tune cooling in tight enclosures.
- Install an Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processor in the LGA1851 socket
- Fit dual-channel DDR5 memory in the two DIMM slots up to 128GB
- Install a graphics card in the reinforced PCIe 5.0 x16 steel slot
- Fit a PCIe Gen5 NVMe SSD in the Blazing M.2 slot and a PCIe Gen4 drive in the Hyper M.2 slot
- Use the Thunderbolt 4 Type-C port for fast external storage or display output, and WiFi 6E for wireless networking
