A leaked specification sheet for an Intel Q970 motherboard reveals a Micro ATX design built around the LGA-1954 socket and the Intel Q970 chipset. The listing points to support for Intel Core Ultra 300S series DT processors, though recent reports suggest Nova Lake-S branding may use Core Ultra 400S instead.
Leaked specifications detail a Micro ATX board built for commercial reliability with DDR5-CUDIMM and PCIe Gen5 expansion.
The board targets commercial and industrial desktop builds with a focus on reliability features rather than raw gaming performance. It includes TPM 2.0, a watchdog timer, serial ports, digital I/O, and multiple LAN controllers to support business environments.
Memory configuration tops out at 128GB of DDR5-CUDIMM across two slots. Graphics connectivity provides one HDMI 2.1 port, two DisplayPort 1.4a ports, and an internal DP header for display output options.
Expansion capabilities feature a single PCIe x16 Gen5 slot alongside additional lanes split into one PCIe x8 Gen5 slot, one PCIe x4 Gen5 slot, and one PCIe x4 Gen4 slot. This layout allows for flexible peripheral integration while maintaining high-speed data transfer standards.
