Ironman-sk Motherboard Specs — Acer

Here is the trap most people fall into. While the main 24-pin ATX connector is standard, the CPU power connector is often a 4-pin instead of an 8-pin, and the pinout for the front panel (Power SW, HDD LED) is non-standard. If you are moving this board to a new case, you will need the original pinout diagram or a lot of patience with a multimeter.

Only if: You find a used Predator G3-710 for cheap ($100–150) with a dead GPU but good CPU/RAM. Pull the board, add a new power supply (using a 24-pin adapter), and you've got a sleeper.

Avoid if: You want to overclock, need modern I/O (USB-C/3.2), or hate tinkering with non-standard parts. acer ironman-sk motherboard specs


The Good:

The Bad:

When you hear "Acer Ironman-SK," you might expect a Marvel-themed PC or a suit of armor. In reality, it’s something rarer: a proprietary motherboard with a surprising amount of hidden potential.

This board is most famously found inside Acer's Predator G3-710 and Aspire T6 desktops. Let’s pop the hood and see what makes it tick. Here is the trap most people fall into

  • BIOS: AMI UEFI (locked down with Acer skin; minimal overclocking features). No support for 8th/9th Gen CPUs (pin-mod incompatible).
  • | Feature | Specification | |---------|----------------| | Form Factor | Custom mATX (not standard mounting holes!) | | Socket | LGA 1151 | | Chipset | Intel H110 (sometimes B150) | | RAM | 2 x DDR4 DIMM slots, up to 32GB, 2133/2400MHz | | PCIe | 1 x PCIe x16 (3.0), 1 x PCIe x1 | | Storage | 4 x SATA 3.0 (6Gb/s), 1 x M.2 (PCIe x2 only - not NVMe full speed) | | Rear I/O | PS/2, 2 x USB 2.0, 2 x USB 3.0, HDMI, DVI, Gigabit LAN, 3x audio jacks | | Power connectors | 24-pin ATX + 4-pin CPU (non-standard pinout sometimes) |
