🎮 GIGABYTE Z590 AORUS ELITE Gaming Motherboard with Triple M.2, PCIe 4.0, USB 3.2 Gen2X2 Type-C, and 2.5GbE LAN (LGA 1200/ Intel Z590/ ATX) Review

Nice gaming board, it looks great and has a nice BIOS with a quick BIOS update button on the board itself, this board comes with App Center for easy setup and RGB control supplied. if you need a CPU cooler, you should use AIO rather than air cooling, since the board has a large and long I/O shield, so that dual-fan air-cooling fans have competition problems. (A 1-fan CPU air cooler shouldn't be a problem. Overall, this is a good gaming board with lots of features at a good price.

Bought for a much needed new build. (Thanks stim!) Decided it was a decent price with a thin RGB (logo). Worked out of the box with no problems. After drivers and updates, my build is fast and works like a dream. I'm using an i7-10700k (10th gen works) and an MSI 1070 from my old build. This is my first run. A simple tweak increases the CPU clock from 3.8 to 4.7 GHz. I want to go further, but plan on adding a water cooling kit before messing around with it. The same goes for RAM, except I had…

So this doorstop has arrived, thanks Revane. It hangs a few times on boot, so I fix Gigabyte and call Gigabyte without expecting anything at all. I wait about 45 minutes before finally deciding to just leave a message. I explain the situation in the message and hang up. The next afternoon I finally get a call back from a man whose native language is obviously not English. Not even close. She's nice enough when I have to ask her to repeat it multiple times, but she soon becomes bored with the…

I bought this because Gigabyte products have been well supported in the past - for example I emailed their tech support about a BIOS issue and they emailed me a corrected firmware within a few days, to flash my bios chip. . It's insanely amazing. But first you have to show me yours and I'll show you mine. I received an RMA number for it and that was it. No shipping schedule, no idea how long it would take them to test/evaluate the board and determine if it's broken and then how to ship the…

Contrary to a disturbing previous review, this board uses Realtek 2.5Mbps Ethernet instead of 10Mbps. And it works great and there are drivers for Windows 10. I've used this chip on several boards and it's always been fine. It's not uncommon, but it works. People also complain that the PCIe m.2 CPU slot doesn't work with 10th Gen processors, but that's true for all Z590 boards. This was particularly the case with the Gigabyte Z490 boards, whose m.2 CPU slot was marked as "reserved for future…
