💪 Powerful and Feature-Packed GIGABYTE Z490 AORUS PRO AX Gaming Motherboard - Intel LGA1200, Z490, ATX, Dual M.2, SATA 6Gb/s, USB 3.2 Gen 2, Intel WiFi 6, 2.5G LAN Review

This board is worth buying if you want six hard drives/SSDs and one M.2 PCIe SSD at the lowest price. This board used to cost $269.99 but is now only $249.99 making it a steal for what it is. Issues prevent all SATA 6Gb/s ports from being used, but this Pro from Gigabyte and Ultra manages it at the cost of just one M.2 slot, according to the manual. Get this if you're a data saver looking to fill up your storage case, you won't be disappointed and look no further!

Without getting too technical, this is the fifth Gigabyte build I've made. Each of them went on the first try, and none of them gave me the slightest problem. It's built like a tank and I suspect it will serve you well for many years to come. Instead of using the drivers that come with Gigabyte drives, I get them straight from their website. In addition, updating the BIOS is a very easy task and it has never been a problem either. This MOBO will look stunning if your build has a glass or…

Came with a bent pin that needed repairing to fix one of the stem channels. Runs cool and stable, but overclocking the 10700K requires higher than average voltage. There were glitches in the fan settings in the BIOS. All in all I didn't really like it. It was also difficult to install a plastic armored GPU next to the PCIe slots. The M.2 coolers didn't help, maybe they got hotter. Bluetooth turned off but WiFi was great. The integrated I/O shield was my favorite part of this motherboard.

Overall this board was a success but I had a few issues. Bios update required from home. It doesn't usually matter much, but I like to see how things work when I plug everything in. The PCIe slots completely ignored the graphics card and nothing I did worked until I saw a message somewhere saying some of those cards needed an upgrade. With a little fiddling everything worked out. I'm having an issue where the computer is idle and won't return to normal. Due to the RGB in the system, I can…

Almost perfect motherboard. The only problem I have is that the top m.2 slot is not working. I tried reinstalling m.2 and checked the manual a couple of times to make sure I wasn't missing anything. I'll play around with it another day because it's working fine with the 2nd slot at the moment. This is January 27, 2021 (8 months after I bought this mobile phone). After logging in, connect to the internet on the first startup, and sometimes after connecting to the internet, some websites don't…

Let's start with the fact that the board is physically solid and its quality is beyond reproach. The VRM heatsinks surrounding the base do an incredible job, fully aided by the heat pipes running from one heatsink to the next. All VRMs also have thermal pads, and while you might not notice them, you'll absolutely feel the effect if you're putting a lot of power into your CPU. The BIOS is the best in the business, there are no errors in the descriptions, 8 overclocking profiles, a favorites page

It's been a few weeks since I've finally been able to put my build together and so far it's been a good ride with a little nudge or two . At first the initial setup went pretty well, the RAM (16GB @ 3600) jumped in with no issues, the CPU (i7 10700k) went in fine, although the chip slipped out of my fingers a bit and I had to salvage it quickly; Luckily none of the pins were damaged so I breathed a HUGE relief when it was posted. The m.2 heatsinks are beefy and feel nice, and I didn't have any…

I've had great luck with Gigabyte boards over the years and the Z490 + 10th gen Intel i7 have been just as good. 4/5 because Gigabyte still needs to work on improving their software. But from the point of view of the iron, this is 5/5.

Good product, had a little problem but in the end it works as it should. The 1st board was poorly packaged, Revain sent the 2nd back in one day. I take my hat off to Revain. Let me tell you a story with a bad ending. I bought another motherboard from another well-known online store. xxxxxxx. The payment arrived broken. I tried to send it back and a reputable online retailer told me I need to contact the OEM to get it fixed. So, the famous store took my money and that's it. NO HELP from them…

Most people don't need a $700 motherboard, and while $270 is a bit pricey, this board sits comfortably in the middle of the Aorus lineup just the right amount of premium features and qualities that more expensive boards have and still feel premium. There is almost no space on the rear I/O panel as you get 9 USB ports, 4 USB 2.0 ports and 5 USB 3.2 ports + 1 USB 3.2 Type-C port. This motherboard does a great job overclocking all cores 1.3v, 5.0ghz on my i7 10700k. 30-35°C idle and 60-67°C when…
