This is the first Mini-ITX motherboard with 802.11ac WLAN, it's based on the Intel H87 chipset and draws power from a combination of 24-pin ATX and 8-pin EPS connectors. The CPU has 4-phase VRM, and there's support for up to 32GB of dual channel memory, one PCI Express 3.0 x16 card and a single mPCIe slot that's populated by the WLAN module.
