- Which CPUs fit this board?
- It uses the Intel Socket 2011 (LGA 2011-3) with the X99 chipset, so it takes compatible Intel Core i7 and Xeon E5 v3/v4 processors. Check the vendor's CPU support list before buying a chip.
- Does it support NVMe SSDs?
- No. There is no M.2 slot, so storage runs over SATA. You can add an NVMe drive only through a PCIe adapter card, and booting from it may not work.
- How much DDR4 memory can I install?
- It has four DIMM slots for DDR4. Actual maximum capacity depends on the CPU and BIOS, so confirm the supported module sizes before buying a kit.
- Is Wi-Fi built in?
- No. It has an RJ45 LAN port but no Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, so you need a wired connection or a separate Wi-Fi card.
- Does it have onboard audio?
- No integrated sound card is listed. Plan on a USB or PCIe sound card, or use audio over DisplayPort or HDMI from a graphics card.
- Can I run two graphics cards?
- Multiple GPU support is not offered, so plan on a single graphics card. This rules it out for multi-GPU rendering or mining rigs.
- Where is the YINGHUA X99 8M D4 DDR4 cheapest?
- At Newegg, for $256.14, as of our latest check.
