Gigabyte Z790 UD AC Motherboard Intel Z790 Express LGA 1700 ATX

UNPARALLELED PERFORMANCE

With the fast-moving changes in technology, GIGABYTE always follows the latest trends and provides customers with advanced features and the latest technologies.

GIGABYTE motherboards are equipped with an upgraded power solution, the latest storage standards, and outstanding connectivity to enable optimized performance for gaming.

To ensure maximum Turbo Boost and overclocking performance of Intel's new generation CPU, GIGABYTE's UD series motherboards equip the best VRM design ever built with the highest quality components.

Shielded Memory Routing

All memory routing is under the PCB inner layer, shielded by a large ground layer to protect from external interference.

Impedance-optimized topology

By optimizing memory trace width, length, and style from HPC simulation to actual implementation, overall impedance is lowered between the CPU memory controller and memory modules to achieve higher DDR5 speeds.

PCB with low signal loss

Server-grade, mid- or low-loss PCB material is chosen to lower signal loss inside the PCB and maintain DDR5 high-speed signal transmission.

Hybrid Cores Optimization

GIGABYTE exclusively creates two new "CPU Upgrade" settings in BIOS profiles with new Intel Hybrid technology to meet different user scenarios by adjusting P-Core and E-Core activation and voltage policy.

Outstanding Thermal Design

The unrivaled performance of GIGABYTE Motherboards is ensured by innovative and optimized thermal design to ensure the best CPU, chipset, and SSD stability and low temperatures under full load application and gaming performance.

4X Large Surface Area

increased surface area up to 4X greater than traditional heatsinksIt improves heat dissipation from the MOSFETs.

Real one-piece build

™OS is a true single-piece heatsink. Its one-piece design and larger surface drastically improve the cooling performance against competitors’ multi-piece designs.

GIGABYTE Ultra-Efficient M.2 Thermal Guard

With durability in mind, GIGABYTE provides a thermal solution for M.2 SSD devices. The M.2 Thermal Guard prevents throttling and bottlenecks from high-speed M.2 SSDs as it helps to dissipate heat before it becomes an issue.

Smart Fan 6 BIOS UI

1. Improve fan curve UI

For more precise and easier fan curve control, we increase the number of control points from 5 to 7 and use a larger fan speed graph.

2. Dual graph mode for slope/stairs

Fan curve can be quickly switched between slope and staircase modes for different user scenarios. Slope is a simple and straightforward linear fan speed curve.The fan continues to run at the same speed between the specified temperature intervals when using the newly added Stair non-linear mode.

3. Manual input

For advanced users, we provide fan speed manual input for more precise control.

4. EZ Tuning

Smart Fan 6 can quickly generate a fan curve by placing four EZ Tuning points at rough temperature and fan speed.

5. Fan curve profile

A fan curve profile can be saved in the BIOS ROM; the profile will be kept after updating the BIOS.

CONNECTIVITY

GIGABYTE Motherboards provide the ultimate connection experience by delivering lightning-fast data transfer speeds via next-generation network, storage, and Wi-Fi connectivity.

Wi-Fi 802.11ac Dual Band Intel®

The Intel® onboard 802.11ac Wi-Fi module supports Dual Band and up to 1.73Gbps, which is 5x faster than 802.11n and also supports Bluetooth 5.

First adopter of 2.5GbE LAN onboard 2X faster than ever before

Adoption of 2.5G LAN provides up to 2.5 GbE network connectivity, with at least two times faster transfer speeds than standard 1GbE networking, ideal for gamers seeking the ultimate online gaming experience.Support multi-gig (10/100/1000/2500Mbps) RJ-45 Ethernet

Connecting the Future: USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C®

The USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 design doubles the performance of the previous USB 3.2 Gen 2 generation.It can transfer data at up to 20 GB/s when connected to USB 3.2 compliant peripherals.Through the USB Type-C® connector, users can enjoy the flexibility of reversible connections to access and store massive amounts of data rapidly.

High-End Audio Capacitors

GIGABYTE motherboards use high-end audio capacitors. These high-quality capacitors help deliver high resolution and high-fidelity audio to provide the most realistic sound effects for gamers.

Audio Noise Guard

The audio noise guard on GIGABYTE motherboards keeps the sensitive analog audio components on the board from being affected by noise at the PCB level.
