The B860I AORUS PRO ICE offers strong storage capabilities with two M.2 slots, one supporting PCIe 5.0 and one supporting PCIe 4.0, both accommodating up to 2280 form factor drives. Two SATA III connectors provide additional storage options. For expansion, a single PCIe 5.0 x16 slot is available, ensuring compatibility with the latest discrete graphics cards and high-speed add-in cards.
Connectivity and Wireless
This motherboard is well-equipped for modern connectivity needs. It features Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) and Bluetooth 5.0 for wireless communication, alongside a 2.5G wired LAN port powered by a Realtek RTL8125 controller. Display output is handled through one HDMI 2.1 and one DisplayPort 2.1, supporting resolutions up to 5120 x 2880 pixels.
