MaxSun has launched its new iCraft X870M motherboard, and it comes with features that feel built for the future. This microATX board uses AMD’s X870 chipset and supports Socket AM5 processors. One of the biggest highlights is its powerful CPU power system. The board can deliver up to 300 W by default and can even be unlocked to reach 400 W. This is a strong hint that next-generation AMD chips may need more power than the current Ryzen 7000 and Ryzen 9000 series.

The board uses a 16+2+1 phase VRM with 50 A DrMOS, giving a stable and smooth power supply. For users who like tuning and pushing their hardware, this is a very welcome upgrade because it offers a lot of room for overclocking.

The iCraft X870M also packs features that are not common in this size. It includes active cooling for its M.2 slots. A small 40 mm fan pushes air over the Gen 5 and Gen 4 M.2 slots, helping high-speed SSDs stay cool during heavy use. The board includes three M.2 slots in total two on the front and one on the back giving plenty of room for storage.

Another eye-catching part of the board is its 4-inch true-colour display. This screen can show system data like temperatures and clock speeds, or users can add small animations to make their setup feel more personal. The DDR5 support also goes high, reaching speeds up to DDR5-8400 when overclocked.

iCraft X870M connectivity

Connectivity is strong as well. For networking, the board offers 5 GbE LAN powered by Realtek, and wireless users get Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 thanks to a MediaTek module. USB options are also impressive, with two 40 Gbps USB4 ports, a 10 Gbps Type-C header, eight 5 Gbps USB ports, and extra USB 2.0 ports. The audio system uses the Realtek ALC1220 codec for clear sound.

Overall, the iCraft X870M mixes strong power delivery, future-ready design, fast storage cooling, and modern connectivity in a small form. It is a promising option for users who want a compact board without losing top-tier features.
