Review on GIGABYTE Z490 AORUS LGA1200 Motherboard Computer Components by David Gonzalez

On my second z490 Aorus Master the first board had issues with the Intel i-225 onboard network regardless of driver or firmware updates it just stayed idle, no activity lights. . It will be active for very short periods of time, but mostly not. So I gave up and swapped for another one and this one worked out smoothly. I haven't built a PC in at least 16 years, hence the fact that everything went so well, including BIOS update, then BIOS setup, component installation, then Windows 10 and drivers. This board is straightforward and works great with the Ram XMP profile. There is nothing easier and I am very happy with this board.
