Designed for Durability
- Gigabyte's double-locking brackets keep PCIe slots securely affixed to the motherboard.
- Solid plated ATX 24-pin and 8-pin power connectors deliver a stable power supply to key components.
- The DualBIOS design features a secondary backup BIOS to help recover from computer viruses, hardware issues, and other issues that could endanger your computer.
- This motherboard features resistors with an anti-sulfur layer that helps prevent sulfur compounds in the air from causing electrical malfunctions.
Enhanced Cooling
The motherboard includes an M.2 thermal guard to quickly dissipate heat from the SSD and help to avoid speed throttling.
Smart Fan 5 allows users to interchange fan headers to correspond with the five thermal sensors across the motherboard so that the system stays cool while maintaining a high level of performance for games and other demanding applications.
Support for high-current fans up to 24W
Fan Stop lets you take control of your computer's noise level by allowing specified fans to halt when the system drops to a designated temperature level. These settings may be customized according to your preferences.
Hybrid Fan Headers automatically detect the connected liquid- or air-cooling systems, enabling Smart Fan 5 to monitor information such as flow-rate
