AORUS PERFORMANCE
With the best quality components and GIGABYTE R&D design capability, the B460 AORUS is a true beast among motherboards.
Single 32GB Support
The maximum memory capacity on the B460 motherboard is 128GB. After Intel updated the memory reference code, a single slot can support up to 32GB. Therefore with populated 2 DIMM per channel on both channel, total memory capacity is 128GB, which was only available on High End Desktop (HEDT) platforms. For users who always run out of memory capacity, there is more bandwidth now for memory-intensive application such as rendering and video editing.
Dual NVMe PCIe Gen3 M.2 Slots (x4,x2)
GIGABYTE Motherboards are focused on delivering M.2 technology to enthusiasts who want to maximize their system’s potential.
Pre-installed I/O Shield Armor
Durable design and easy installation
  • With an integrated base plate, GIGABYTE Motherboards give users a strong foundation to build their Gaming PCs.
  • With an integrated I/O shield, building a GIGABYTE Ultra Durable PC is even easier.
Advanced Thermal Solution
1. Enlarged MOSFET Heatsinks
Enlarged Heatsink increases surface area to improve thermal efficiency with better airflow and heat exchange.
2. 5 W/mK LAIRD Thermal Conductivity Pad
By using 1.5mm thicker 5 W/mK thermal conductivity pads, it can transfer 2.7x more heat compared to traditional thermal pads in the same time.
3. 2X M.2 Thermal Guards
Built-in M.2 heatsinks prevent high-speed, large capacity PCIe 3.0 SSDs from throttling due to overheating.
AORUS M.2 Thermal Guard
GIGABYTE Ultra-Efficient M.2 Thermal Guard
With durability in mind, GIGABYTE provides a thermal solution for M.2 SSD devices. The M.2 Thermal Guard prevents throttling and bottlenecks from high speed M.2 SSDs as it helps to dissipate heat before it becomes an issue.
Thermal Throttling As Temperature Rises
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.
