Z390 AORUS PRO WIFI

It was just under $200 when I purchased it. It's a great motherboard, but it is NOT for beginners. I have been using this motherboard since October 2020 and it has been smooth sailing. A few notes I had to learn the hard way since it isn't well documented... - The board IS Windows 11 compatible. You have to go into the BIOS settings, activate TPM, and then Windows 11 can be installed without issue - It is ARGB compatible, but the instructions are... confusing to say the least, in the instruction manual. - Gigabyte is not known for having robust or stable firmware, but it can still be a worthwhile experience if you know how to manage it As I mentioned, this is not a board for beginners. There are certain caveats to consider when purchasing a performance-oriented, but budget-friendly board, that can be easily overlooked if you don't know what you are doing. Even so, for the features and performance alone, it is definitely a 5-board for PC builders with a bit of experience.

After researching the top 3 brands of motherboards (Asus, MSI, Gigabyte), I decided to go with the Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Pro WiFi board for my Intel i7-8700K. I was looking for certain features including a board with WiFi and the latest M.2 NVMe Technology, and not too much bling with lights So far, I am very pleased and happy with this board because I wanted to use Samsung's 970 EVO 500 Gb M.2 NVMe SSD. And so far, the stick is working smoothly with Windows 10 installed. The board instantly recognized the stick without doing any setting in the BIOS. Just make sure you only have this SSD installed when first installing Windows 10 if you want the OS on this SSD (or else you may have issues) I currently have 4 sticks of 3200 RAM CORSAIR Vengeance RGB 8GB DDR4 3200MHz C16 installed on the board along with a GPU EVGA 1070Ti FTW2 - the board booted up the first time it was turned on going straight to the BIOS screen and instantly recognized my Corsair fans, AIO Cooler, M.2 Samsung Drive and EVGA GPU card without any tweaking in the BIOS. A lot of people say the BIOS interface is not the best; but, being a first time PC building, the BIOS has an EASY Mode for a newbie like to me navigate through. However, the board defaults at the 2133 Mhz for any RAM over 2133; you'll have to go back into the BIOS...easy mode...enable XMP...then reboot to get it to change automatically You also can get a 3 year warranty with Gigabyte if you register your motherboard

Built another system for myself-my ASUS mobo arrived DOA, and after months of fighting I gave up on them. Found this board-was a little apprehensive, as this was the first time I used something other than ASUS in over a decade. I'm pleasantly surprised. This board has delivered well in every area. Designed well, plenty of extra connectors, all the USB support I like, even wifi support built in as an added plus. The bios isn't as intuitive as the ASUS boards, but I had no trouble with it as I'm used to tweaking settings-a novice user might have some difficulty. The only thing that I would consider to be a negative is the placement and direction of the SATA connectors, but many board makers seem to favor this approach. The connectors are bundled together and face towards the drive stacks. The bigger problem is if you have a large video card (I had an ASUS DUAL-RTX2080-A8G I had to cram in there). Mine completely obstructed the SATA ports which made plugging in anything to the SATA ports impossible. I had to take out the video card just to plug something into the SATA ports. This was a minor issue though, and compared to the rest of the perks of the board, really inconsequential. Just install your SATA cables first. ;)

I've got nothing bad to say about this one. I'm not a Gigabyte fan in general, but they got this one right. I put a lot of effort into building it as a gamer for a specific client, and it did everything well when I tested it and shipped it out. Just recently had contact with the buyer, he absolutely loves it still, won't even consider "upgrading" to the Intel 10 series because he doesn't want to switch boards. This has all the bells and whistles (ARGB headers being his favorite), but it's still as rock solid performance-wise as they come. The lighting is cool, even I admit it. The software to control it is even better in my experience than most, and I was able to tweak the settings I'd normally not want to saddle a buyer with right out of the box. Great board, fair price.

Excelente tarjeta madre, con una buena fuente te mantiene los 5ghz sin ningún problema, es bastante cómodo que traiga Bluetooth 5 integrado para poder jugar con mandos a distancia, el wifi es de lo mejor, a su vez la conexión alambrica es magnífica, las luces RGB aunque tenues agregan un toque gaming bastante chulo, excelente en compatibilidad ya que cuenta con un montonal de puertos de expansión, el audio como lo describe gigabyte es de alta gama, quizá incluso un poco más de lo que debería para el mercado al que se enfoca, honestamente no es de lo más barata pero vale la pena ahorrar para invertir en esta chulada. 👌

Great motherboard for a 8th gen or 9th Intel processor. Assembling it is flawless. The only downside is the cosmetic side of things. RGB fusion is not as straight forward as ASUS.

Everything is perfect about this product, i9 processor and you’re good to go

Product works amazing in my build but unfortunatly after 2 months my psu died :( so cant wait to get it back up and running
