GIGABYTE Z790 UD AC (LGA 1700/ Intel Z790/ ATX/ DDR5/ Triple M.2/ PCIe 5.0/ USB 3.2 Gen2X2 Type-C/Intel Wi-Fi/ 2.5GbE LAN/PCIe EZ-Latch/Multi-Key/Motherboard)

The PBC and heat sink materials are good.

Running smooth with intel gen 13 i5 no issues so far..

Very good value board with tons of features. Good vrms, tames my 14700K no sweat. Great bios out of the box and easy oc/uv/xmp etc, no issues getting 6400mhz 32GB X2 running stable. Armory Crate software could use an overhaul.. that's my only complaint, but everything can be done at a bios level, which I prefer anyways. Gigabyte has always served me well for mobos, and this one is no different.

Gigabyte boards just ALWAYS work. It's the only brand I use. Bought this one for an upgrade to socket 1700 Intel processors, without having to purchase new RAM as this board uses DDR4. I fired it up, checked the BIOS and made a few adjustments, then put Windows 11 in. Put it to bed. Next evening,after firing it up again, it contacted Gigabyte website and installed all of the necessary drivers and the latest BIOS update. Everything works perfectly and this is just my "backup" PC, which is now looking like it will take the place of my main machine until I also upgrade this PC. For CPU cooling, I went with a Noctua NH-U12S Redux with a second fan. Glad I did as this setup just fits when using a front to back air flow setup. The full sized Noctua coolers would probably not fit. All in all, I highly recommend this board for it's overall value, reliability, and versatility.

Excellent Motherboard and very easy to install. Worked on the first try an as specified. I tried an ASUS equivalent board and returned it for it failed right away. Gigabyte worked!

Tiene muchas opciones para conectar periféricos o accesorios directamente a la tarjeta. Tiene capacidad para múltiples SSD M2, discos de 2.5' y discos de 3.5'. La interfaz de la BIOS es muy sencilla de configurar, y aparte tiene el modo avanzado para mayor capacidad de ajuste. La actualización de BIOS también es relativamente fácil con la función de QBIOS, además de no necesitar procesador para usar esa función (aunque sí requiere ciertos pasos previos).

Motherboard worked great right out of the box. The only issue I had was my own fault, I thought the onboard video was HDMI, but it is displayport. Gigabyte has a great little adapter that makes connecting the start, reset, HD, etc jumpers very easy. I did a BIOS upgrade right after installation. Gigabyte has what is called Aorus APP which made that extremely easy. My setup uses all 6 SATA ports, their position makes it very easy to connect/disconnect. I spent just under $600 on the motherboard, 12th gen core I-7 CPU, 32 gigs of DDR5 RAM, 1 TB M.2 SDD and fan. Kept my old case, power supply, monitor , keyboard and mouse. I could not have bought a new computer with this much horse power for more twice that cost.
