GIGABYTE motherboards are equipped with upgraded power solution, latest storage standards and outstanding connectivity to enable optimized performance for gaming.

To ensure maximum Turbo Boost and overclocking performance of AMD's new generation CPU, GIGABYTE AORUS series motherboard equip the best VRM design ever built with the highest quality components.

To unleash full potential of multi-cores CPU performance

For CPU integrated GPU performance and memory control

Provide stable power for CPU featured PCIe lanes

* 8+8 phases parallel power design
Ultra Durable™ SMD PCIe 5.0 x4 M.2 Connector
The first PCIe 5.0 x4 M.2 Slot supports the latest M.2 25110 form factor. Reinforced PCIe 5.0 M.2 connectors with metal shielding to provide higher strength.
GIGABYTE Active OC Tuner
With GIGABYTE's exclusive Active OC Tuner BIOS function, CPU* can work with AMD P.B.O. for gaming and other light workload applications with the highest CPU boost clock, but when the applications require all CPU cores horsepower, it automatically switches to the Manual OC mode where it can utilize the high frequency for all the CPU cores.
ㆍActive OC Tuner switches profile based on user scenario automatically ㆍ6.8% performance increase
* Only available on selected AMD Ryzen™ processors with P.B.O. function featured.

Active OC Tuner with Auto Switching
AMD P.B.O.
Manual
AMD P.B.O. mode for fewer cores with the highest CPU boost clock, better for gaming.
Manual OC mode for all cores with high CPU clock, better for content creation.
Note: The Active OC Tuner feature is available on certain models. Product feature may vary by model.
Outstanding Thermal Design
Thermal Design
Fully Covered MOSFET Heatsink
M.2 Thermal Guard III
Smart Fan 6
GIGABYTE Motherboards' unparalleled performance is guaranteed by innovative and optimized thermal design to ensure the best CPU, Chipset, SSD stability and low temperatures under full load application and gaming performance.
1. Fully Covered Thermal Design
High coverage MOSFET and integrated molding Heatsinks to improve thermal efficiency with better airflow and heat exchange.
2. M.2 Thermal Guard III
M.2 Thermal Guard III constructed with 6X optimized heat dissipation surface and double-sided M.2 heatsinks to prevent throttling and bottlenecks on high-speed/ large capacity of PCIe 5.0 M.2 SSDs.
3. 8mm Mega-Heatpipe
8mm Mega-Heatpipe has 30% wider diameter than traditional 6mm heatpipe and is able to transfer more heat under same time period.
4. 8-Layer & 2X Copper PCB
2X COPPER PCBs design effectively lower the component temperature by its high thermal conductivity and low impedance.
5. 7 W/mK Thermal Pad
1. 3X Large Surface
Increased surface area up to 3X larger compared to traditional heatsinks. It improves heat dissipation from the MOSFETs.
2. Real One-piece Build
TMOS is a TRUE single piece heatsink. Its one-piece design and larger surface drastically improve the cooling performance against competitors' multi-piece design.
3. Multi-Cut Design
TMOS features several channels and inlets on the heatsink. This design allows for the air flow to go through which leads to a great improvement of the heat transfer performance.
M.2 Thermal Guard III
M.2 Thermal Guard III constructed with 6X optimized heat dissipation surface to prevent throttling and bottleneck that high-speed/ large capacity of M.2 SSDs may cause, especially under heavy workload. The special design of heatsink grooves in the direction of CPU further enhances the in-chassis air flow and optimizes the heat convection efficiency.
Throttle-free Performance
*The result is based on internal lab test for reference only, real performance may vary. Test conditions are under open case, 25˚C ambient temperature, no airflow, AIO Cooler and the latest Gen5 SSD running IO meter for two hours.
* The appearance design of M.2 Thermal III may affect the CPU tower cooler installation; therefore, it is recommend to use CPU liquid cooler.
