support, to offer the best visual experience for viewers.
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.

Temperature Sensors
Hybrid Fan Headers
- 5 Temperature Sensors
- 3 Fan Pin Headers
- 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
Hybrid Fan Pin Headers
Assume complete control over your liquid cooling setup! Smart Fan 5 receives
up-to-the-second information on flow-rate and water-temperature through the
Hybrid Fan Pin Headers or external thermistor sensorsgiving 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
preferences. For each fan or pump, you can use the intuitive fan curve to define
trigger thresholds and corresponding fan speeds.
RGB FUSION 2.0
With B550 Motherboards, RGB Fusion 2.0 is even better with Addressable LEDs.
RGB Fusion 2.0 offers users the option to control onboard RGB and external RGB /
Addressable LED light strips* for their PC build. Already feature filled with
colors and patterns, RGB Fusion 2.0 are now upgraded to improve the Addressable
LED support. With external Addressable LED strips, where each LED is digitally
addressable that users can experience even more patterns, styles, and
illuminations.
With B550 Motherboards support the external 5V Addressable LED lighting
strips and up to 300 LED lights. RGB Fusion 2.0 with Addressable LEDs comes with
new patterns and various speed settings with more to come.
RGB Fusion 2.0 Software
With an integrated intuitive user interface, the RGB Fusion 2.0 provides you
a better solution for customizing the lighting effects across all supported
devices. From motherboards, graphics cards to the peripheral products, you can
personalize your gaming rig with your own style and show off your build by
sharing the profiles. In addition, the new gaming mode makes the lighting
effects interactive with selected games to bring you the most immersive gaming
experience.
Sync with one click
Individual control as you wish
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.
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.
Q-Flash Plus
Update the BIOS easily without installing the CPU, memory and graphics
card.
With GIGABYTE Q-Flash Plus, you dont 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 youre good to go!
