The AORUS motherboards boast a combination of Hi-Fi grade WIMA FKP2
capacitors and high-end Chemicon audio capacitors. While the high-end audio
capacitors are suited for high-grade audio equipment, using state of the art
technology to provide rich sound in the bass and clearer high frequencies, the
WIMA FKP2 capacitors are being used widely in premium grade Hi-Fi systems. The
addition of this to the exclusive AOURS AMP-UP Audio technology makes for the
ideal onboard sound solution for the most demanding audiophiles.
With AORUS Motherboards, RGB Fusion is even better with Digital LEDs.* RGB
Fusion offers users the option to control onboard RGB and external RGBW /
Digital LED light strips for their PC. Already feature filled with colors and
patterns, RGB Fusion on AORUS Motherboards are now upgraded with Digital LED
support. With external digital LED strips*, where each LED is digitally
addressable, users can experience even more patterns, styles, and
illuminations.
AORUS Gaming Motherboards will support either 5v or 12v digital LED lighting
strips and up to 300 LED lights. RGB Fusion with Digital LEDs comes with 9 new
patterns and various speed settings with more to come.
Now 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 application, the user has complete control over the LEDs which surround
the motherboard.
Not bright enough? You can install standard 12V external RGB, RGBW or RGB/UV
light strips on the RGBW pin header and control its color from the RGB Fusion
software. Using a RGBW light strip with a dedicated white LED, users will
experience brighter and more vibrant shades of colors.
RGB/UV light strips can illuminate your PC with a fluorescent glow. With UV
reactive cables, paint or liquid your PC can radiate with a luminous glow.
RGBW light strips can produce a pure white color instead of mixing R/G/B to
produce an inaccurate white.
With dedicated white LEDs, light strips can produce a richer and brighter
color on the color scale.
Different light strips sometimes have different RGB pin definitions, RGB
Fusion software can relocate each pin location for the best compatibility.
RGB Fusion (Advanced mode)
With the all new RGB Fusion software, users have access to different preset
LED lighting configurations with choice of colors. You can even set the LEDs to
synchronize with your favorite music or have them change colors to indicate the
CPU temperature. For true lighting experts there is an Advanced Mode, which can
be fully customized by individual area with its own effects and color
transitions, along with specific duration and transition times.
- Independent Control - Customized different color for different section of
board
- Synchronize with AORUS Graphics Cards - Synchronize colors with select
AORUS video cards to complete the feel of your system.
- Synchronize with RGB FUSION READY Peripherals - With a dazzling array of
products supported, RGB Fusion is the software that brings it all together,
letting your accessories synchronize to the same beat.
- Fully Customizable - Adjust lighting animation with color stops, color
duration, transition period, and color effects.
- Lighting Profile - Save, export and import profiles to quickly change
effects based on your preference and to share with others.
GIGABYTE RGB Fusion APP
Don't just make your PC shine, make it a work of art that friends will envy.
With the GIGABYTE RGB Fusion mobile app users can watch as they control the
lighting within their gaming PC. This gives users ease of access as they try and
adjust colors and speeds for different modes, all this can be achieved away from
the keyboard and monitor of their PC.
With a dazzling array of products supported, RGB Fusion is the software that
brings it all together, letting your accessories synchronize to the same beat.
Customize all your LEDs how you like have them match, dazzle and impress.
AORUS COOLING
Smart Fan 5
With Smart Fan 5 users can ensure that their gaming PC can maintain its
performance while staying cool. Smart Fan 5 allows users to interchange their
fan headers to reflect different thermal sensors at different locations on the
motherboard. Not only that, with Smart Fan 5 more hybrid fan headers that
support both PWM and Voltage mode fans have been introduced to make the
motherboard more liquid cooling friendly.
Fan Pin Headers
Internal Temperature Sensors
- 5Fan Pin Headers
- 6Temperature Sensors
- All Fan Pin Headers Upgraded to Hybrid Fan Headers
- Supports High Current Fans up to 24W(2AX12V) with Over-Current Protection
- Intuitive UI for Fan Control
Different models have different number of fan pin headers and temperature
sensors. Smart Fan 5 function may vary by model.
Achieve fan silence. With Fan Stop map any fan to stop completely when
temperatures drop below a specified threshold. Which fan stops, based on
readings from which sensor, and at what temperatureall of it can be customized
to your liking.
Intelligent Fan Control Design
Hybrid Fan Pin Headers
Assume complete control over your liquid cooling setup! Smart Fan 5 receives
up-to-the-second information on flow-rate through the Hybrid Fan Pin
Headersgiving you absolute mastery over your PC. All Hybrid Fan Headers can
automatically detect the type of cooling device whether it be fan or pump with
different PWM or Voltage mode.
New Smart Fan 5 Software
Choose from different modes, Quiet to Full Speed, to match your system
usage scenario. For each fan or pump, you can use the intuitive fan curve to
define trigger thresholds and corresponding fan speeds.
Interoperable Sensors and Fans
Each fan can be customized to operate at different speeds according to any
defined temperature source input (except the CPU fan).
Fan Curve
Customize fan curves based on specific temperatures with the intuitive
graphical UI.
AORUS ULTRA DURABLE
Integrated I/O Shield Armor
Durable Design And Easy Installation
With an integrated I/O shield, building a GIGABYTE Ultra Durable PC is even
easier and convenient. Users can expect excellent durability with the durable
design of the pre-installed I/O shield.
Solid Pin Power Connectors
Make Good Connection and Significantly Lower the Wires Capacity
AORUS 400-series motherboards feature solid plated ATX 24pin & ATX 12V
8pin power connectors for offering stable power supply while CPU overloading.
Solid Pin Power connector advantages
- Larger contact area for electricity
- More metal quantity to sustain higher power and generated heat
- Ultra durable and longer lifespan
GIGABYTE Patented Double Locking Bracket
START SULFURIZATION PROTECTION
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.
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 DualBIOS Design
GIGABYTE Ultra Durable motherboards feature GIGABYTE DualBIOS, an exclusive
technology from GIGABYTE that protects arguably one of your PC's most crucial
components, the BIOS. GIGABYTE DualBIOS means that your motherboard has both a
'Main BIOS' and a 'Backup BIOS', protecting users from BIOS failure due to
virus, hardware malfunction, improper OC settings or power failure during the
update process.
Easy to Install "G Connector" Design
The tiny cables of the front panel connectors can be hard to manipulate as
space is restricted and indicators being tiny. With the G Connector, you can
connect all the FP cables at once, simplifying the process of building your next
PC and saving you some frustrations.

native 4K support with integrated IntelHD
Graphics via HDMI.
HDMI - The Next Generation Multimedia Interface
HDMI is a High-Definition Multimedia Interface which provides up
to 5Gb/s video transmitting bandwidth and 8-channel high quality audio all
through a single cable. Able to transmit superior, uncompressed digital video
and audio, HDMI ensures the crispest rendering of digital content up to 1080p
without the quality losses associated with analog interfaces and their
digital-to-analog conversion. In addition, HDMI is compatible with HDCP
(High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), allowing the playback of Blu-ray/HD
DVD and other protected media content.
