Gigabyte Z790 AORUS ELITE AX ATX Motherboard for Intel LGA1700 CPUs

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.Twin Digital VRM DesignTo ensure maximum Turbo Boost and overclocking performance of Intel's new generation CPU, GIGABYTE AORUS series motherboard equip the best VRM design ever built with the highest quality components.Design Ready for PCIe 5.0PCIe 5.0 Design supports double the bandwidth of PCIe 4.0 and ensures that compatible with cutting-edge GPUs released in the next few years to their full capability.The New Generation Ultra Durable™ SMD PCIe 5.0 ArmorThe new generation, GIGABYTE's exclusive stainless-steel PCI-e shielding becomes 20% wider providing reinforced tensile strength.UNLOCK DDR5DDR5 Overclocking Up to 7600 and Beyond*AORUS is offering a tested and proven platform that has memory overclocking capability up to 7600 and beyond. For DDR5 XMP Memory, all users need to do to attain high memory performance boost is to ensure that their memory module is XMP capable and that the XMP function is activated and enabled on their AORUS motherboard.Shielded Memory RoutingAll memory routing is under the PCB inner layer shielded by a large ground layer to protect from external interference.Impedance Optimized TopologyBy optimizing memory trace width, length and style from HPC simulation to actual implementation, overall impedance is lowered between CPU memory controller and memory modules to achieve higher DDR5 speed.Low Signal Loss PCBServer grade mid-loss or low-loss PCB material is chosen to lower signal loss inside PCB and maintain DDR5 high speed signal transmission.DDR5 Auto BoosterAutomatically Boost the Native DDR5 frequency to 5000MHz while the system is under heavy loading by a single click.DDR5 Memory UpgradeGIGABYTE BIOS offers pre-defined and retrievable profiles for users to get higher performance easily. The profiles are based on a database that is created by checking each memory IC and PMIC vendors to optimize the modules to unleash their full potential. This is a time saving feature to manually configure overclocked DDR5 memory kits.  Instantly upgrade memory performance Overclock Native and XMP 3.0 DDR5 memory to higher frequency easily No need to input dozens of memory parameters such as clock, voltage and timings Built-in wide variety pre-tuned profiles database for different memory IC vendorsXMP 3.0 User ProfileDefine and create your own SPD profile into Native and XMP 3.0 memory modules or apply the pre-tuned profiles to XMP 3.0 User Profile. Two user-defined profiles can be saved, loaded either locally or from/to an external storage device. Two empty SPD profiles can be defined by users and carry to next computer Transfer DDR5 XMP Booster profiles into XMP 3.0 User Profiles Quick memory performance simulation based on user input clock and timing parameters Profile save and load function to share your memory parameters onlineTriple 7G/s Gen4 M.2 PCIe SSDs in RAID 0The exclusive 3 PCIe 4.0 M.2 from CPU and 2nd Generation 7000 MB/s SSD provides unparalleled Read/ Write performance up to 21053 and 15499 MB/s.OUTSTANDING THERMAL DESIGNGIGABYTE Motherboards' unparalleled 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.Fully Covered MOSFET Heatsink4X 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 Guard IIIM.2 Thermal Guard III constructed with 6X optimized heat dissipation surface to prevent throttling and bottleneck that high-speed/ large capacity of M.2 SSDs may cause, especially under heavy workload.The special design of heatsink grooves in the direction of CPU further enhances the in-chassis air flow and optimizes the heat convection efficiency.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.CONNECTIVITYGIGABYTE Motherboards enable the ultimate connection experience with blazing data-transfer speeds through the next generation network, storage, and Wi-Fi
