Maxsun unveiled its iCraft Z890 ITX motherboard at Computex 2026, targeting enthusiasts who want compact builds without sacrificing performance. The board supports Intel's LGA-1851 socket and Core Ultra 2 processors, featuring active cooling for both VRM components and M.2 storage.

The motherboard delivers substantial power delivery through its 8+1+1 power circuit design, enabling it to handle CPUs with up to 250W TDP—including the Core Ultra 9 285K at stock speeds. Expansion includes a full PCIe 5.0 x16 slot, dual DDR5 slots, and multiple M.2 connections supporting both PCIe 5.0 and 4.0 SSDs.

Connectivity options span modern standards with Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, and Realtek 5G LAN. The rear I/O panel accommodates DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.1, and nine USB ports across various speeds. Pricing and availability remain unannounced, leaving budget-conscious builders waiting for details on this feature-rich mini-ITX option.

This release addresses growing demand for powerful small-form-factor builds, particularly as Intel's latest processors generate more heat. Maxsun's approach suggests confidence that enthusiast-class cooling can fit within ITX constraints, though real-world performance validation awaits independent testing.
