Extreme Power Design
To unleash the full potential of the new Intel 10-core CPU, the motherboard
requires the best CPU power design. With the
best quality components and GIGABYTE R&D design capability, Z490 AORUS XTREME is a true beast
among motherboards.

90A Smart Power Stage for Each vCore Phase- High Current Capacity MOSFET
- Tantalum Polymer Capacitors Array
- Lower Temperatures
- Improved Transient
* Doubled from 8 phases with current balancing.
Due to the lower resistance of the polymer materials, tantalum polymer caps generally have better ESR and ripple current
specifications, as well as better performance at high frequency.
In order to unleash the full performance of the new high core count CPUs, GIGABYTE uses true
power phases, a fully load-balanced VRM design with doublers, and a tantalum polymer capacitor array. By using
doublers, the power design
ensures that the high power draw of the CPU is fully balanced across all MOSFETs to achieve
better efficiency and lower
temperatures. In contrast, MOSFETs in competitors' traditional parallel power designs are not as well
balanced which leads to lower
efficiency and higher temperatures. For sudden changes between idle and high load states from
the CPU, GIGABYTE utilizes
a tantalum polymer capacitor array directly under the CPU socket as a buffer to improve
transient response and stability
under high CPU frequencies.

Improved Transient Response
By using brand new VRM design and Tantalum Polymer Capacitor Array, Z490 AORUS motherboard
transient response and
stability is highly improved under overclocking and heavy loading condition.

Other's Traditional Parallel Design without Doubler
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.

1. Fins-Array II with NanoCarbon Coating
Fins-Array II use a new louvered stacked-fins design which not
only increases surface area by 300% compared to
traditional heatsinks but also improves thermal efficiency with
better airflow and heat exchange.
2.
Direct-Touch Heatpipe II
With an extra large 8mm heatpipe and made from a new
manufacturing process that narrows the gap between the Heatpipe and
heatsink, the new Direct-Touch Heatpipe II greatly help
transfers heat on the MOSFET.
3. Aluminum
Cover
IO Cover is made from aluminum and is connected with Fins-Array
to help overall MOSFET heat dissipation.
4. 3X M.2
Thermal Guard II
Enlarged double-sided M.2 heatsink prevents high-speed, large
capacity PCIe 3.0 SSDs with double side flash from
throttling due to overheating.
5. LAIRD 7.5
W/mK Thermal Pad
By using 1.5mm thicker 7.5 W/mK thermal conductivity pads, it
can transfer 4x more heat compared to traditional thermal
pads in the same time.
6. NanoCarbon
Baseplate
A thin layer of NanoCarbon is coated on the baseplate through
electrostatic adhesion to enhance thermal radiation
capability.
7. Right
Angled Connectors
Over 90% of connectors on Z490 AORUS XTREME are specifically
designed to be right angled for easy cable management and
clean airflow in the chassis.
Fins-Array II
Fins-Array II uses brand new louvered stacked fins technology which is usually only used
on industrial equipment that
need compact heat exchangers. It has a special secondary fins structure that enhances
heat transfer performance.
Louver Directed Flow
Heat flow that goes through fins will enter from the leading edge of the
louver and is then directed by other louvers or
fins. This louver directed flow can greatly improve heat transfer
performance.
Fins-Array II
Traditional Stacked Fins
Fins-Array II
Fins-Array II uses brand new louvered stacked fins technology which is usually only used on industrial equipment that need compact heat exchangers. It has a special secondary fins structure that enhances heat transfer performance.
Circulation Zone
Because of pressure difference and flow separation, a circulation zone will be formed between louvered fins. This circulation will cause flow entrain and eject in the vortice form which improves thermal efficiency.
* Flow simulation of louvered fins
Direct-Touch Heatpipe II
With an extra large 8mm heat pipe and made from a new manufacturing
process to narrow the gap between the heat pipe and
heatsink, new Direct-Touch Heatpipe II greatly helps transfer heat on
MOSFETs.
Right-Angled Connectors
Z490 AORUS XTREME uses revolutionary Right-Angled Connectors design, 90% of pin
headers and
connectors on motherboard
are right-angled and relocated to one side of PCB. The never-seen-before design help
easier
cable
management and better
in-chassis air-flow when installing great amount of devices.
*Photo for reference only.
NanoCarbon Baseplate
- Base plate made of aluminum instead of traditional iron ensures 3X thermal conductivity.
- A thin layer of NanoCarbon is coated on the base plate through electrostatic adhesion to enhance thermal radiation capability.
- Transfer heat from the back side PCB to the base plate so the NanoCarbon base plate can dissipate heat passively.
- Effectively lowers backside PWM component temperature by 10%.
NanoCarbon Coating
This specialized nanostructure of carbon molecules has extraordinary thermal
conductivity.
NanoCarbon Coated Fin Array Heatsink
As CPUs get more powerful, VRM modules get hotter under ultra high performance. Being
the first adopters among industry using NanoCarbon as coating material to enhance
thermal radiation speed up heat dissipation. Nanocarbon is coated onto the heatsink
through electrostatic adhesion. The coating material covers the entire finned heatsink
with 200μm in thickness. In that way, heat is dissipated more quickly.
The tests show 10% cooler with the NanoCarbon coating.
AORUS M.2 Thermal Guard II
With durability in mind, GIGABYTE provides a new thermal solution for large capacity
M.2 SSD devices with double side
flash. The M.2 Thermal Guard II uses a double-sided heatsink design and prevents
throttling and bottlenecks on high
speed M.2 SSDs by dissipating heat before it becomes an issue.

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.
