ASRock B760M-X Gen5 Micro-ATX Motherboard LGA1700 DDR5
The ASRock B760M-X Gen5 is a compact Micro-ATX motherboard built for users who need DDR5 and PCIe Gen5 performance without a full-size board. It suits builders balancing professional productivity and gaming in a smaller chassis, offering solid power delivery, modern connectivity, and RGB customisation in a streamlined package.
Why this product
PCIe Gen5 and DDR5 in compact form
The board pairs a Gen5 x16 slot for graphics with dual-channel DDR5 memory supporting speeds up to 7200+ MHz overclocked. This brings current-generation performance to systems that don't need full ATX size.
7+1+1 power phase for stability
Robust power delivery handles 14th, 13th and 12th gen Intel Core processors reliably, with support for Turbo Boost Max 3.0 and Thermal Velocity Boost.
Multiple storage options
One PCIe Gen4 M.2 slot from the CPU, one PCIe Gen3 M.2 from the chipset, plus four SATA ports give flexibility for drives and RAID configurations.
2.5G networking and audio
Fast Realtek Dragon LAN and ALC897 7.1-channel HD audio codec cover wired connectivity and sound quality without needing add-on cards.
RGB and compact dimensions
Onboard and addressable RGB headers sync with Polychrome-certified accessories. The 24.4 × 22.1 cm footprint fits tight cases without compromising features.

- SKUASR-1876
- EAN4711581492356
- Fits Intel LGA1700 processors: 14th, 13th and 12th gen Core, including hybrid-architecture chips.
- Accepts DDR5 non-ECC unbuffered memory in two DIMM slots, up to 128 GB total capacity at 7200+ MHz with XMP 3.0 overclocking.
- Provides video output via HDMI and DisplayPort 1.4 for integrated graphics on supported processors.
- WiFi requires a separate M.2 module (type 2230 CNVio-compatible) in the dedicated Key E slot; onboard LAN is wired only.
- Not compatible with AMD processors or DDR4 memory.
Best for
- Compact system builders who need current-gen features without full ATX bulk.
- DDR5 overclocking enthusiasts on a budget, using XMP 3.0 pre-tested profiles.
- Productivity and light gaming workloads in small-form-factor cases.
- Users who want RGB lighting synchronisation with peripherals and coolers.
Trade-offs
- High-end enthusiasts requiring more than two M.2 storage slots or greater expansion density.
- Systems demanding PCIe Gen5 NVMe storage; only the primary M.2 slot runs Gen4, the secondary is Gen3.
- Users needing built-in WiFi; a separate module must be purchased and installed.
- Builders with legacy equipment; the board supports only DDR5 and modern Intel platforms.
The ASRock X-Series motherboard provides a high-value solution, balancing performance and versatility within a compact form factor. It's highly capable in handling a wide range of tasks, from professional productivity to everyday usage, striking an excellent balance between affordability, reliability, and efficiency.
Derived from the "built for stable and reliable" designing concept, ASRock does not compromise on any details. This motherboard is built with high quality materials, enthusiasts are able to enjoy the boost of DDR5 memory overclocking performance by enabling the pre-tested profiles. Make sure the memory modules are Intel® XMP/AMD EXPO™ capable and overclocking can be made so affordable, satisfying and absolutely no sweat at all.
This motherboard features onboard RGB headers and addressable RGB headers that allow motherboard to be connected to compatible LED devices such as strip, CPU fans, coolers, chassis and so on. Users may also synchronize RGB LED devices across the Polychrome RGB Sync-certified accessories to create their own unique lighting effects.
*The addressable RGB LED header supports WS2812B addressable RGB LED strip (5V/Data/GND), with a maximum power rating of 3A (5V), a max of 80 LEDs and length within 2 meters.
*The RGB LED header supports standard 5050 RGB LED strip (12V/G/R/B), with a maximum power rating of 3A (12V) and length within 2 meters.
