Description GIGABYTE Z490 AORUS PRO AX Motherboard (Z490_AORUS_PRO_AX)

GIGABYTE Z490 AORUS PRO AX

AORUS Motherboard on the basis of a chipset Intel Z490 Express, the 12-phase digital VRM module, the end-to-end solution for effective cooling of key components of a system, an array of plates of Fins-Array II, the module of Intel WiFi 6 802.11ax, the controller of Intel 2.5GbE LAN, the RGB FUSION 2.0 function.

EXCLUSIVE FEED CIRCUIT

completely to realize the potential of the new 10-core Intel processor Core, is necessary for the motherboard a powerful power supply subsystem. The Z490 AORUS PRO AX model is designed on the basis of high-quality components and shows tremendous opportunities, is the real masterpiece performed by engineers of GIGABYTE.

SmartFan 5 Function

Thanks to Smart Fan 5 the users can be sure by

that their game PC will function in the most favorable temperature condition without prejudice to performance. Thanks to the thermal sensors placed on the motherboard, means of Smart Fan 5 it is possible to control operation of each fan. Besides, Smart Fan 5 is an also bigger number of hybrid connectors for connection of fans which support operation modes of PWM and Voltage, providing the maximum convenience of service of the installed liquid system of cooling.

UNSURPASSED PERFORMANCE

Growing client demand for systems with maximum capacity – one of key incentives to develop new unique products for engineers of GIGABYTE. On the example of the Z490 series boards – it is the optimized configuration and noise immunity of a subsystem of memory at the level of circuitry (the minimum duration of transition processes and high speed on reading/record operations, optimization of processes and gain of performance of the platform in general), a capacious disk subsystem on base M.2 - drives with effective cooling (exclusively high high-speed performance of reading/record of data arrays). Transition to new Z490 platform is an opportunity in the future to apply 4.0-compatible components in the PCIe system.

GIGABYTE Company offers

AORUS platform which is carefully tested industrially which provides appropriate compatibility with XMP profiles of the RAM modules capable to work at frequency of 5000 MHz and above. To reach the specified memory subsystem performance, the user needs to make sure only that the RAM modules installed in a system support XMP profiles, at the same time the option XMP is present and is activated in appropriate section of BIOS Setup of the AORUS motherboard.

x4 Two M.2 the PCI Express 3.0 connector

Within industry standards the Z490 AORUS motherboards show

best compatibility with the NVMe-drives presented at the market, meeting basic criteria to which the disk subsystem – the capacity necessary for the user and maximum capacity should satisfy. Means of a disk subsystem of AORUS motherboards it is possible to organize a fast RAID for the high-performance PC (speed on read operations of consecutive data to 3551 MB/s) that the choice for the AORUS products makes clear.

Built-in 2.5GbE the LAN controller

with

data transmission rate of Ethernet-connection to 2.5 Gbps, it by 2.5 times exceeds high-speed performance of interface 1000Base-T which is most distributed now. Characteristics of the controller ideally are suitable for game PCs and the systems of stream broadcasting of video content (streaming), guaranteeing high data transmission rate in real time. Within backward compatibility the controller supports standards of connection 10/100/1000/2500 Base-T, the connector for connection – the standard RJ-45 Ethernet socket.

WiFi 6 802.11ax + BT 5

Wireless module of the Intel company supports standard 802.11ax, providing the data exchange rate means of WiFi-connection exceeding high-speed performance of network 1GbE LAN, smooth transfer of video streams, necessary comfort for participants of network fights and also independent support of several diverse connections at a speed up to 2.4 Gbps. Besides, the range of the built-in Bluetooth 5 of the module increased by 4 times in comparison with devices of the Bluetooth 4.2 standard, and speed increased twice.

Polyzonal light show

Now when there was an opportunity to select a preferred choice from the extensive list of ready profiles, or to independently create the unique profile, users can organize PC illumination in compliance with their ideas of style. Thanks to full support of RGB rulers and functionality of the processed RGB Fusion application 2.0 users got access to management of all LEDs involved in illumination of the motherboard and its environment.

Reinforced PCIe Ultra Durable connectors

Within the concept of new design of the GIGABYTE boards on PCIe connectors screens from stainless steel thanks to which plastic blocks get additional protection and are ready to installation of any PCI Express of expansion cards.
