Turbo B-Clock
Built-in Advanced Performance Tuning IC
Turbo B-Clock Tuning IC in the AORUS X370 series
motherboards enable overclockers to have the ability to change their BCLK
frequency to a desired value of their choice. With the new linear range
adjustment option of the Tuning IC, ranges from 100MHz to 300MHz are now
possible.
* Turbo B-Clock overclocking range may vary according to
CPU capabilities.
Diagnostic LEDs
Hardware Troubleshooting at a Glance
Onboard LEDs controlled by the system BIOS indicate if a
malfunction is occurring, allowing users to quickly diagnose which major
component (CPU/DDR/VGA/HDD) is malfunctioning so they may take action promptly.
GIGABYTE Patented Double Locking
Bracket
Dual Armor DIMM and PCIe Metal
Shielding
Never worry about your heavy graphics card damaging your
motherboard again. AORUS proprietary Ultra Durable PCIe Metal Shielding
reinforces the PCIe connector to prevent slot damage due to heavy graphics card.
The DIMM and PCIe metal shield also provides extra strength for when you forget
to release the lock while replacing your component, adding a foolproof option
which can save your PCs life.
Ultra Durable PCIe Armor
Enhanced Strength PCIe Design, Support for Heavy Graphics Cards For
Extreme / VR Gaming Station
Ultra Durable Memory Armor
AORUS exclusive one piece stainless steel shielding design prevents against
PCB distortion and twist, plate bending, in addition to preventing any possible
ESD interference.
Anti-Sulfur Resistor Design
Sulfur compounds in the air can penetrate tiny onboard resistors creating
chemical change and causing these resistors to open or short. If either of these
occurs the motherboard will fail to function. By equipping resistors with an
Anti-Sulfur Design GIGABYTE gives Ultra Durable Motherboards a whole new
meaning.
Refreshed BIOS Easy, Smart, and
Friendly
The BIOS is essential for users during initial setup to allow for the most
optimal settings. With a new GUI and easier to use functionalities, GIGABYTE has
been able to reinvent the BIOS to give users a better experience while setting
up their new system.
