Easy install. Clean install. Bios was easy and straightforward. The BIOS alerted the user if the ROM was incorrectly installed. the BIOS had a Secure Format program, allowing the installer to format the SSD drive to reuse as a boot drive. The installation disk had all the necessary drivers and once the WiFi drivers were installed. WiFi access was initiated and all drivers were scanned for updates. A liquid cooler was used for the CPU and wiring was very simple. We kept DDR4 RAM as we didn't need to upgrade to DDR 5. It also came with PCI-e 5 4x`6pin slot for the PCI-e 4.0 video card.





Durable, Reliable, State of the art features



Wifi Built in

-Has absolutely everything you'll need for gaming (2017)

Flashed bios with newest one so my i5-13600K would be recognized. Worked flawless. Sound it great. Loads of options to adjust in BIOS for just about anything you want to adjust. NVME cards work flawless. Motherboard is far more advanced that my old ROX Maximus Hero VI.

Everything works and easy Windows installation. Gen 4 support for my 980 pro.



After coming back to PC building from a 12 year hiatus (stopped in 2012, picking back up in 2024) I was in the market for a motherboard capable of handling my i9-9900K, and GTX 980 Ti Hybrid's in SLI. Dug around for a couple weeks researching and this was the solution. What I like about this board is: - One of the few SLI capable boards on the market, which was a requirement for me - Quality VRM, and phase system(s) - Has capability for Corsair iCue RGB management thru the motherboard RGB headers itself, which is useful for my SP120 / RX120 fans - I/O shield built into the VRM cooler, so one-piece install. No more pesky IO shields to remove. - 4-pin ATX-12V connector for CPU isn't required unlike some other cheaper motherboards that force running both power cables to operate the system - Just useful for overclockers pushing 150+ watts on CPU and need more power. - The nifty little front I/O Panel connector clip to "quick disconnect" your power switches is BALLER - No clue why other motherboard manufacturers haven't done this for their customers... made it super easy getting that right 1st try without cracking open the manual for help. - Overclocking features are far more detailed and accessible compared to my previous Asus Prime Z390-P. - Small things like the positioning of the SATA ports, locations of fan headers, etc show Gigabyte has thought about people and the complex systems we like to assemble.

Great value, looks good, feels well built.
