| 12 | Skylake Chipsets main differences: | |
| 13 | ||
| 14 | Regular- | |
| 15 | ||
| 16 | - | H170: Regular chipset - 16 PCIe 3.0 lanes - 6 S-ATA ports - PCIe Storage: 2 - 2 RAM slots per channel |
| 16 | + | |
| 17 | - | Z170: Required for OC - 16 PCIe 3.0 lanes - 6 S-ATA ports - PCIe Storage: 3 - 2 RAM slots per channel |
| 17 | + | H170: Regular chipset - 16 PCIe 3.0 lanes (supports Crossfire) - 6 S-ATA ports - PCIe Storage: 2 - 2 RAM slots per channel |
| 18 | Z170: Required for OC - 20 PCIe 3.0 lanes (supports CF and SLI) - 6 S-ATA ports - PCIe Storage: 3 - 2 RAM slots per channel | |
| 19 | ||
| 20 | Business- | |
| 21 | B150: 8 PCIe 3.0 lanes - 6 S-ATA ports - PCIe Storage: 0 - 2 RAM slots per channel | |
| 22 | Q150: 10 PCIe 3.0 lanes - 6 S-ATA ports - PCIe Storage: 0 - 2 RAM slots per channel | |
| 23 | Q170: 20 PCIe 3.0 lanes - 6 S-ATA ports - PCIe Storage: 3 - 2 RAM slots per channel | |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | Server- | |
| 26 | C232: 8 PCIe 3.0 lanes (max 4x) - 6 S-ATA ports - ECC RAM support | |
| 27 | C236: 20 PCIe 3.0 lanes (max 4x) - 8 S-ATA ports - ECC RAM support | |
| 28 | ||
| 29 | Most often B150 is the best price/value. Always thoroughly check if the chipset fulfills your needs. | |
| 30 | ||
| 31 | ||
| 32 | If you get a Skylake K CPU, you need the Z170 chipset. Never buy one without the other. | |
