The multiple fan headers can support PWM/DC fans and pumps, and users can easily define each fan curve based on different temperature sensors throughout the system via an intuitive user interface.

2.5 GbE LAN

  • The adoption of LAN 2.5G provides network connectivity up to 2.5 GbE, with at least 2 times faster transfer speeds compared to general 1GbE networking, perfectly designed for gamers with the ultimate online gaming experience.
  • Support for Ethernet RJ-45 Multi-Gig (10/100/1000/2500Mbps)

USB 3.2 Gen2X2 Type-C

It features USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 design, which doubles the performance compared to the previous generation USB 3.2 Gen 2. It operates with lightning-fast data transfer speeds of up to 20 Gbps when connected to USB 3.2 compatible peripherals. Through the USB Type-C connection, users can enjoy the flexibility of reversible connectivity for quick access and storage of large volumes of data.

RGB Fusion

Offering now more LED customization than ever, users can truly personalize their computer to represent their lifestyle. With full RGB support and a redesigned RGB Fusion 2.0 application, the user has full control of the LEDs surrounding the motherboard.

EasyTune

EasyTune by Gigabyte is a simple and user-friendly interface that allows users to finely adjust their system settings or customize the clocks and voltages of the system and memory in a Windows environment.

With Smart Quick Boost, it only takes one click to automatically overclock your system, giving an extra boost in performance when you need it most.

System Information Viewer

The Gigabyte System Information Viewer is a central location that gives you access to the current status of your system. Monitor components such as clocks and the processor, set the fan speed profile you prefer, create alerts when temperatures rise too high, or record the behavior of your system - these are the capabilities of the System Information Viewer.

Q-Flash Plus

Update the BIOS easily

With Gigabyte Q-Flash Plus, you don't need to install the processor, memory, and graphics card or enter the BIOS menu. Simply download and save a new BIOS file to a USB drive and then press the exclusive Q-Flash Plus button and you're ready.
