Also known as:

• Intel X99-DS4 (not actually sold by Intel)

Known issues:

• Fake motherboard/chipset

This motherboard and/or its chipset is either a replica of or falsely advertised as a higher-end competing product. Fake products often have lower performance and quality and are in general harder to find proper drivers and BIOS files for.

Please check your motherboard in detail to determine if its a fake product or not. If it is, you should immediately refund the product if possible.

Notes:

• Actual chipset is Intel B85 (not X99 or Z87/Q87).

• Often sold with Haswell-EP or Broadwell-EP CPUs (such as E5-2670 V3 or E5-2680 V4) as a bundle.

• Top M.2 slot runs off of PCIe and supports NVMe drives. Bottom slot runs off of SATA and does not support NVMe.
