PERFORMANCE
10*+2 Phases Digital VRM Design with Low RDS(on) MOSFET
Optimized for 8-Core IntelCore
CPU
GIGABYTE GAMING series motherboards use a 10*+2 phase PWM+ Lower
RDS(on) MOSFETs design to support the latest 8-core IntelCore
CPUs by offering incredible precision in delivering power to the motherboard's
most power- hungry and energy-sensitive components as well as delivering
enhanced system performance and ultimate hardware scalability.
* Doubled from 5 phases with current balancing.
Benefits of Lower RDS(on) MOSFETs
- Optimized gate charge to minimize switching losses.
- Lower temperature, smaller size, better thermal
characteristics.
Advanced Thermal Design
- MOSFET Heatsinks - Multiple cuts on heatsinks improves thermal
performance by increasing heat dissipation surface and maintain stylish
aesthetic.
- Thick Thermal Pad - Improved thickness of the thermal pad to 1.5mm, gives
superior heat dissipation of MOSFETs.

Support RGB Lighting Effect in Full
Color
Personalize your next PC rig to your liking by selecting the color of your
choice to illuminate the external RGB light strip.
Light Strip Support
AUDIO
High-End Audio Capacitors
GIGABYTE 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 Guard
GIGABYTE motherboards feature an audio noise guard that essentially separates
the boards sensitive analog audio components from potential noise pollution at
the PCB level. LED trace path lighting Illuminates to show the separation of the
PCB layers.
CONNECTIVITY
IntelGbE
LAN with cFosSpeed Internet Accelerator Networking
IntelGbE
LAN features cFosSpeed, a network traffic management application which helps to
improve network latency and maintain low ping times to deliver better
responsiveness in crowded LAN environments.
The Industry's Leading LAN Static-Electricity & Surge
Protection
GIGABYTE motherboards use ICs with up to 3 times the ESD resistance levels
compared to traditional ICs. This helps to better protect the motherboard and
its components against potential damage caused by static electricity.GIGABYTE
motherboards also feature special anti-surge ICs that protect your motherboard,
and your PC from any surge in power delivery that may occur, helping to ensure
that your PC is equipped to deal with any potentially irregular and inconsistent
power delivery.
Dual-Mode M.2 Slot Design
Support PCIe NVMe + SATA SSDs
GIGABYTE Motherboards are built with dual M.2 slots. With a PCIe NVMe + SATA
dual-mode design on M.2 slots. This configuration is designed for flexibility
and adaptation to fit most users' and gamers' requests.
PCIe / SATA Dual Mode Support
PERFORMANCE FUELED BY OPTANE
The Z390 Platform supports Intel's latest Optane technology. Optane fuels
storage performance by acting as a cache drive giving users a significant boost
compared to traditional mechanical drives.
Native Intel USB 3.1 Gen 2 Controller
Intel's native USB 3.1 host controller provides USB 3.1 ports with speeds up
to 10Gbps .With twice the bandwidth compared to its previous generation as well
as backwards compatibility with USB 2.0 and 3.0, the much improved USB 3.1
protocol is available over the new reversible USB Type-C and the traditional USB
Type-A connector for better compatibility over a wider range of devices.
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
Temperature
Sensors
Different models have different number of fan pin headers and temperature
sensors. Smart Fan 5 function may vary by model.
Temperature Sensors
Hybrid Fan Headers
- 4 Fan / Water Pump Connectors
- 6 Temperature Sensors
- All Fan Pin Headers Upgraded to Hybrid Fan Headers
- Interoperable Fans and Sensors
- Intuitive UI for Fan Control
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
ULTRA DURABLE
GIGABYTE Patented Double Locking Bracket
Ultra Durable PCIe Armor
Industry Leading Ultra Durable PCIe Armor
The innovative one piece stainless steel shielding design from GIGABYTE
reinforces the PCIe connectors to provide the extra strength required to support
heavy graphics cards.
Ultra Durable Memory Armor
GIGABYTE exclusive one piece stainless steel shielding design prevents
against PCB distortion/twisting and plate bending, in addition to preventing any
possible ESD interference.
Solid Pin Power Connectors
Z390 motherboards feature solid plated ATX 24pin & ATX 12V 8pin + 4pin
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
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.
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.

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.
