ASUS PRIME H610I-PLUS-CSM Mini-ITX LGA1700 DDR5 Motherboard
The ASUS PRIME H610I-PLUS-CSM is a Mini-ITX motherboard built for 12th, 13th and 14th generation Intel Core processors in compact builds. It combines DDR5 memory support, PCIe 4.0 connectivity and integrated remote management, making it suited to small-form-factor PCs that need stable power delivery and flexible expansion without the bulk.
Why this product
Mini-ITX design for tight builds
At 6.7 × 6.7 inches, it fits small cases while retaining four SATA ports, one M.2 slot and a PCIe 4.0 x16 graphics slot.
DDR5 5600 memory support
Handles up to 96 GB of DDR5 across two DIMM slots, with XMP profiles for faster performance out of the box.
5+1+1 power stages for stable delivery
Robust DrMOS power design keeps the processor and chipset fed cleanly, especially useful in compact cases with less airflow.
Three video outputs
DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.1 and D-Sub (VGA) connectors let you choose the display connection that suits your setup.
Built-in remote management (ACCE)
ASUS Control Center Express software comes included for managing the system remotely, a feature usually reserved for server motherboards.

- DDR5 memory modules (non-ECC, unbuffered) rated at 4800 MHz and above, up to 96 GB total across two slots.
- M.2 SSDs in 2260 and 2280 sizes using PCIe 3.0 x4, plus four SATA 6 Gbps drives.
- Wi-Fi and Bluetooth via M.2 Key E slot (CNVi and PCIe), but the Wi-Fi module must be purchased separately.
- Intel 11th generation and older processors — this board requires LGA1700 and H610 chipset support.
Best for
- Small-form-factor and SFF PC builds where Mini-ITX is mandatory and space is at a premium.
- Budget-conscious builders who want DDR5 and PCIe 4.0 without stepping up to a larger, more expensive board.
- IT environments and managed endpoints needing ASUS Control Center Express for remote monitoring and administration.
- Users requiring integrated networking, multiple display outputs and straightforward firmware updates via ASUS EZ Flash.
Trade-offs
- High-end gaming or workstation builds: H610 is an entry-level chipset without overclocking support or premium power delivery for sustained high-load scenarios.
- Systems needing Wi-Fi out of the box: Wireless is sold separately; you must purchase an M.2 Wi-Fi module and install it yourself.
- Builders wanting maximum storage expansion: Limited to one M.2 slot and four SATA ports; no additional PCIe slots for NVMe expansion.
- Dual-GPU or multi-expansion setups: Only one PCIe 4.0 x16 slot means you cannot add a second graphics card or high-bandwidth expansion card.
