Support for DDR4 XMP up to 3600MHzDDR4 memory modules are available at a stock frequency of 2133MHz, but memory vendors encode XMP profiles which can automatically modify the frequency and timings of the supported memory modules to work in par with your CPU. With the X99 Series, GIGABYTE is offering a tested and proven platform that ensures proper compatibility with profiles up to 3600MHz.
What is XMP?
The synchronization of the memory modules with the CPU is crucial for good performance of your system. DDR4 memory modules are available at a stock frequency of 2133MHz, but as frequency tweaking requires a considerable amount of effort and knowledge, memory vendors encode XMP profiles which can automatically modify the timings of the supported memory modules to work with your CPU and to achieve increased performance.
* XMP Profile support may vary depending on memory module. Please refer "Memory Support List" for more information.

PCIe x16 slot Bifurcation supportBreaking the limits on a Mini-ITX form factor, GIGABYTE’s Z170N-WiFi 2.0 expands the support for PCI-Express via a bifurcation mode. This feature allows users to take advantage of a single PCI-Express x16 slot, through the use of a riser card, and transform their PCI-Express slot into two (2) full length PCI-Express slots, each supporting x8 PCIe lanes.
This new expansion capability allows users to create various solutions through the combination of different types of expansion cards. Users and solution providers can now leverage an additional slot for an Intel 750 PCIe NVMe SSD, companied with a graphics card making this PC a powerhouse for graphics rendering or good old fashioned gaming while still retaining its small Mini-ITX form factor. -
