EDIT: After some testing with new parts and tinkering with settings, I've figured that the main issue stemmed from the RAM, not the motherboard. I've never used DDR5 before so maybe it's something to do with that, but I've found it impossible to use at full speed and have it be stable. Never ever use XMP. I've learned my lesson there. Also fixed my issue with boot up times/lighting not starting properly by messing with ErP and Fast Boot settings in the BIOS. Glad I get to use this board, it's got wonderful I/O and it's simple enough for what I need. ORIGINAL: Just built my new PC and this motherboard has given me the most issues out of any parts by far. To start off with the bad, it has some power issues, fan lights will often not turn on or off alongside the PC, it takes a while to start up most of the time, and I can not use my RAM to its fullest speed. Using the motherboard's built in XMP with 4x16GB DDR5-6400 MHz RAM causes only crashes when using the PC. (memtest shows 0 errors with the RAM itself.) Games will crash quickly and sometimes the entire system just blue-screens or freezes, and every time it's related to the XMP, and I know this because going to a lower XMP profile, it works fine. Still a few crashes but it's never anywhere near as bad as using it at full speed. This motherboard also just has some build quality issues. USB-3 plugin came off with the connector, making the pins exposed. Thankfully it still works, but that's definitely not reassuring when it comes off that easily. As for the good, this motherboard has a lot of I-O. 4 USB 2.0 ports on the back for your keyboard, mouse, etc. is always nice. Lots of USB 3.0 ports and also tons of slots on the motherboard itself. The NVME storage is very nice and has a good built-in heatsink for them. The motherboard itself also looks super clean, and is incredibly simple to install. This motherboard definitely has a lot of potential, it's possible I got a faulty board, and if I get more problems I'll definitely end up getting a new one from a different brand. But, if you wanna take a chance, then this one could definitely work. For now, I think there's a lot of issues that need ironing out and if you plan on getting high-end parts, you may want to look for something with more assured quality.

Powered by a Seasonic Vertex PX-1000, with Intel i7-12700KF, Gigabyte Aorus Radeon RX 6900 XT Xtreme Waterforce, 32GB G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB 6800 MT/s, WD Black 1TB SN850X NVMe and cooled with a custom loop, this is a nice motherboard. Some reviews suggest some fuss about it, but mine was plug & play, updated all the drivers as well as BIOS just fine. Memory overclocked and CPU undervolted with no problems. Fusion works great with both the GPU and RAM. One review noted the "WiFi kit" wasn't aesthetically pleasing, which seems unfounded since there is no "kit" with the board I purchased, it's just an antenna that looks fine, I like it. Out of the box, these boards have unlocked power to high draw components, and so it needs good, stable power. I read a review for the GPU used in this build that stated the "GPU died" and "took the PSU with it", which was funny b/c that's an under-powered PSU problem, not a GPU one.

I had ordered a motherboard previously to this one for the Eagle by gigabyte and it never arrived yet it was marked as delivered. In hindsight I think it was a blessing because the Aorus Z790 is a beast. My son’s pc was outdated and I wanted to get him something that would last a long time. This thing has a ton of room for expansion. Easy to install ssd cards, ram, cpu, and peripherals. Fits comfortably inside an NZXT H6 Flow case. Great purchase for what I needed. Just a shame pc parts have sky rocketed in the past 7 years.

This motherboard did all intended purposes for my first build, it seats all of my components very well and as far as aesthetics go.. it’s fine. The software for driver updates and RGB control is convenient and worked well with my fractal pop air case. Fan controls are also good, no problems there. Bios is functional and has decent tweaking options. For someone building themselves especially the first time, everything is appropriately labeled and it is very easy to get running. The performance after benchmarking was excellent. My only negatives about the motherboard are really the audio performance, the audio is just okay. If you’re someone who prioritizes audio and works with a lot of audio whether it’s through editing/streaming or gaming then you may be wanting more out of the audio. Not that it’s horrendously bad or anything but it’s just basic and something you would’ve expected a little more from out of an aorus elite model especially a z790. Taking into account that you get DDR5 support on this; the price point is good. Some people like DDR5, some don’t, but if you do then you’ll be happy with this motherboard. You also get wifi 6 if you install the kit for that, I didn’t because the kit looks horrible (just my opinion) and if you’re looking for an aesthetic build then the wifi 6 kit will probably not be something you’ll want to install. You could probably hide most of the kit if your case is big enough but I’d be worried about the functionality if you don’t give the antenna enough space to do antenna things. For the price point it’s definitely a good motherboard to consider, it supports all of the recent GPU/CPUs and DDR5. In retrospect I probably would’ve shelled out more $ to get something with better audio capabilities and a better looking wifi 6 kit if those were things I’d even considered when deciding on my build (If you didn’t consider them yet, consider them now!) Not at all disappointed in my purchase, it’s doing its job and doing it well. But if you’re going to make a beefy build make sure the quality of all parts of it are just as high end.

I recently purchased this product and I’m really impressed! The quality exceeded my expectations and it works exactly as described.

At first i didnt upgrade the BIOS as that can always cause problems. But the GPU and M2 980 samsung i had, was not recognized in the bios so didnt have a choice but to update. Ran the update through ok and it rebooted like 5 or 6 times, then went dark screen. Left it for a long while and nothing. So rest and removed flashdrive. boot back to bios and screen keeps flashing blank, uh oh, other than that it says it updated. I know, i will reflash it !!! Hold on there, not so easy, go through same process QFLASH and says cannot read file ! Deleted files and recopied, same thing ! ended up finding an article that says have to reformat the drive each time, so did, recopied file and QFLASH read files and reapplied. This time took just a few minutes and booted back to BIOS menu. Phew! Now the 7900XT and the 980 and recognized and all good to go. Have to say the onboard wifi is sweet, coming from a USB variety that gave me 40-50mb on 5G now on 500mb. Using 7900XT, 14700K

Owned for about a year now and it is a solid motherboard! Definitely felt overkill at the time but worth the investment. I am constantly troubleshooting other hardware and this board does an excellent job at handling it. I mostly work and game on it daily and the solid beefy heatsinks are a must. The only issue I have had with this board is I purchased the WIFI variant, and decided to install a dedicated PCIE Wireless card that caused my PC to freeze up and boot loop. Other boards I have worked with allowed for me to install a separate wireless card but this one did not. If you plan on installing a dedicated wireless card then definitely avoid the WIFI model. Other than this very minor niche issue, I believe this is a solid buy. Price has not changed much since my purchase last June 2023, dropping only about $30, currently July 2024 with a price of about $230.

I own several desktop computers and usually use either ASUS ROG or Gigabyte Aorus motherboards. Over the last ten years, I have generally had just a little bit more stability from my Aorus boards overall. I own both the Z390 (9th generation) and Z590 (11th gen) Aorus Master boards. Both of those are feature packed with high fidelity audio codecs, numerous overclocking options, and most importantly for me as a flight simmer, a boatload of USB ports in the back to connect my peripherals to. Both cost me about $250 when they were the latest products and have delivered outstanding performance to this day. In comparison, this latest Z790 Aorus Elite AX (version 1.1) costs the same as my two previous Master boards do, but lacks the audio, the voltage regulation, and the extra back panel USB ports. In fact, the closest Aorus Master board which gives me what I have on my two previous boards has now been bumped up to $400. ... WTF?! Time will tell how competitive these boards remain but for now, my Z790 is both stable and hassle free. I am still in the testing phase and will add to this review in the near future. Four stars for now. [Update] - As of October, 2023, Gigabyte has released their FHa BIOS update for this board which restores many of the higher end overclocking features that it was missing. Unfortunately, this board still suffers from too few USB ports in the back.

Otima praca mãe atende a tudo que eu preciso

Qualitativ und macht was es verspricht , aber die hauseigene Software von Gigabyte ist nicht so gut wie von anderen Herstellern .

bought to replace an asus board. no issues works great.

Very good board Ive been using it for a few months now had no issues with it.
