UNPARALLELED PERFORMANCEWith the fast-moving technology changes, GIGABYTE always follows the latest trends and provides customers with advanced features and latest technologies. GIGABYTE motherboards are equipped with upgraded power solution, latest storage standards and outstanding connectivity to enable optimized performance for gaming. OUTSTANDING THERMAL DESIGNGIGABYTE Motherboards' Un-throttled performance is guaranteed by innovative and optimized thermal design to ensure the best CPU, Chipset, SSD stability and low temperatures under full load application and gaming performance.4X Large SurfaceIncreased surface area up to 4X larger compared to traditional heatsinks. It improves heat dissipation from the MOSFETs.Real One-piece BuildTMOS is a TRUE single piece heatsink. Its one-piece design and larger surface drastically improve the cooling performance against competitors' multi-piece design.Multi-Cut DesignTMOS features several channels and inlets on the heatsink. This design allows for the air flow to go through which leads to a great improvement of the heat transfer performance.M.2 Thermal GuardWith durability in mind, GIGABYTE provides a thermal solution for M.2 SSD devices. The M.2 Thermal Guard prevents throttling and bottlenecks from high speed M.2 SSDs as it helps to dissipate heat before it becomes an issue.SMART FAN 6Smart Fan 6 contains several unique cooling features that ensure gaming PC maintain its performance while staying cool and quiet. Multiple fan headers can support PWM/DC fan and pump, and users can easily define each fan curve based on different temperature sensors across the board via intuitive user interface.Four PCIe 4.0x4 M.2GIGABYTE Motherboards are focused on delivering M.2 technology to enthusiasts who want to maximize their system's potential.Connecting the Future - Rear USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C®Featuring the USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 design which is doubled the performance than previous generation of USB 3.2 Gen 2. It works up to 20Gbps ultra-fast data transfer while connecting to USB 3.2 compliant peripherals. Through the USB Type-C® connector, users can enjoy the flexibility of reversible connection to access and store massive amounts of data rapidly.High-End Audio CapacitorsGIGABYTE motherboards use high-end audio capacitors. These high quality capacitors help deliver high resolution and high fidelity audio to provide the most realistic sound effects for gamers.Audio Noise GuardGIGABYTE motherboards feature an audio noise guard that essentially separates the board s sensitive analog audio components from potential noise pollution at the PCB level.RGB Fusion Multi-Zone Light Show DesignNow offering more LED customizations than ever, users can truly adapt their PC to represent their lifestyle. With full RGB support and a redesigned RGB Fusion 2.0 application, the user has complete control over the LEDs which surround the motherboard.Multi-keyA multi-function reset button that can be reconfigured to other function in BIOS for different user scenarios.PCIe EZ-LatchUnlock the latch of the PCIe slot easily when remove the graphics card in the PCIe slot.Q-Flash PlusUpdate the BIOS easily without installing the CPU, memory and graphics card.With GIGABYTE Q-Flash Plus, you don't need to install the CPU, memory and graphics card nor enter the BIOS menu to flash the BIOS. Just download and save a new BIOS file (rename to gigabyte.bin) on the USB flash drive, then press the dedicated Q-Flash Plus button and you re good to go!
