ASUS Prime H610M-E D4 Review
The Prime H610M-E D4 is ASUS's entry-level LGA1700 board, aimed at budget builders assembling a basic office or light gaming system around a non-K 12th/13th Gen Intel processor.
ASUS does not publish an exact VRM phase count for this entry-tier board; the H610 chipset doesn't support CPU overclocking, so it's designed for locked-multiplier chips at stock clocks. Two DDR4 DIMM slots support dual-channel operation at standard speeds, a notable limitation for builders who want four memory slots. Expansion includes a single PCIe 4.0 x16 slot for the GPU. Storage covers a single M.2 slot supporting NVMe drives, alongside SATA ports. An onboard Gigabit LAN controller handles wired networking; this board does not include built-in WiFi. Against the Gigabyte H610M H DDR4 in this batch, the Prime H610M-E D4 offers a PCIe 4.0 GPU slot versus the Gigabyte board's PCIe 3.0, making it the stronger pick for builders who want to future-proof for a PCIe 4.0 GPU upgrade.
