4. CPU Power Connector
GIGABYTE's exclusive 2X Copper PCBs design provides sufficient power trace paths between components to handle greater than normal power loads and to remove heat from the critical CPU power delivery area. This is essential to ensure the motherboard is able to handle the increased power loading that is necessary when overclocking.
10 Layers PCB
For richer feature and powerful performance on mini-ITX board Z490I AORUS ULTRA, ten layers mid-loss PCB was adopted to make it work. Comparing with regular 8 layer PCB, two more layers for power solution and ground is added. In order to fully support 10th gen ten core CPU and get ready for the future, power trace need more space than previous generation. An extra layer is exclusively for the power delivery. Furthermore, a complete ground layer improves the signal integrity and helps PCB to dissipate heat. Along with ten layered, low impedance, 2X Copper PCB, Z490I AORUS ULTRA is unbeatable among motherboards.
Unparalleled Performance
GIGABYTE realize that our customer won't stop chasing a better computer performance. We take care of it and implement more on products. Optimized memory trace enhance the performance. Faster read and write are needed to save time and improve efficiency. We offer plenty of M.2 Storage with thermal guards to ensure unthrottled read and write. In advance, adopting PCIe 4.0 ready components get the Z490 easier to upgrade.
