Brilliant well made board everything you could need Gigabyte have done themselves proud with the Aorus Master.Onboard audio has improved dramatically in the last couple of years and that is what the focus of my review is about.I had a usb dac bypassing the onboard audio on my previous board and delivering direct to my amplifier and on to my speakers. The usb dac stopped working and i had to connect the amp up to the onboard audio via a single jack plug to rca splitter cable. I was impressed how good the sound was using the just the onboard ALC1200 Realtek on my Z370 board, so much so that when i spotted the Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Master and read the reviews and specs and found out that it had notonly a Realtek ALC1200 dac but also a ESS Sabre 9118 dac as well as other improved audio components i just had to see and hear if it was any good, i took a gamble and made a purchase. Really glad i did.I don't know the technicalities of how the two dacs work together, but it works and boy does it ever deliver . The sounds are much more cleaner and clearer i think the audio is of a high quality, high enough certainly to be classed real HI-Fi. I have it connected via the jack plug rca splitter to my Yamaha S301 amp using pure direct coupled to a pair of Q Acoustics 3020 speakers and a Q Acoustic 2070s subwoofer. The sound is in my opinion way better than the very expensive standalone usb dac that i owned previously and better than the Z370 Realtek ALC1200 on it's own.My headphones are Sennheiser hd 650 and these i plug into my amp. Listening to music on my headphones is heavenly crystal clear best ever i've heard.I'm using mp3 files most at 320 bit but also a fair few Flac files which play superbly and i am using JRivers as the music player with playback set to (Realtek (R) Audio) [ WASAPI ]Hope this review helps anyone looking for a good audio using onboard rather than paying inflated prices for standalone dacs, the board may seem expensive but it is cheaper than a paying hundreds of pounds for overpriced audio dacs

I upgraded my Asus Prime to this motherboard to run a mild overclocking (all cores boost speed on a 9700K).The VRMs in this board are known to be brilliant. If you plan on any overclock, VRMs are very important to guarantee the right power supply to the CPU.If you don't need to overclock then there isn't much difference between boards really.Some evident differences you may find when not overclocking between this and a chap basic board:- USB-C. This board has USB-C on the back and the specific connector internally as well for external connectors- Fan headers. The board has 4 system fan headers, all independent. Cheaper board might have less- RGB. It isn't obvious, but the lights on the board are all RGB.There is a software for the board that allows you to control the effects. All the lights will behave the same way (same colour, same effect, no separation allowed).- Instead of a separate I/O shield, the I/O panel is integrated and nicer- The m.2 sockets have a heat dissipator for the SSDsNote that these boards have 1x 4pin plus 1x 8pin connectors for the CPU power, so if you want to take sull advantage of the power supply in case of overclocking with these boards you need a power supplier with the 2 lines for the CPU (usually found on the more powerful/more expensive PSUs).I upgraded from an Asus Prime basic board to this. Managed before to get 4.8GHz all cores on my 9700K, couldn't get more. Got now 4.9GHz all cores on the same CPU. Potentially can get better increasing the voltage a bit more, but happy overall.Note: it is "easy" to install for someone that knows what to do. Do not install this if you are not sure of what you are doing. Get help from an expert if you want to learn how to do it, be guided or get it assembled by them. If you get things wrong YOU WILL damage your components

Instantly strikes you as quality the minute you take it out of its box. Super sturdy and just really well made. Upgraded from a hero xi and its night and day. Has every feature you could wish for. I've a water cooled build so my cpu and gpu blocks are using the 2 addressable rgb headers. My ek d5 pump res combo is in a standard rgb header, so for the first time ever I have one piece of software controlling all my rgb and it works flawlessly. The vrm is incredible. Made even better by the back plate that actually works and the decent finned heatsink. There was a bit of controversy that the cheaper boards in the aorus line up had a better vrm as they use 50amp power stages and smart doublers butin controlled testing with all heatsinks removed the all ir vrm with its 40 amp power stages ran 1.5c cooler. So what's better on paper doesn't always equate to reality. I've heard a lot of people complain about gigabytes bios but I've had zero issues with it and it's my first gigabyte board. Every setting you could ever wish for, plus an ez bios for simple adjustments. The only flaw I can find with it is its automated oc'ing options. Just dont go near them. They use an insane/dangerous voltage. Just enabling mce my 9900k was using up to 1.45v!! Even my hero xi only used about 1.32v. Oh yeah, nicest looking mb I've ever had too. Just the right amount of rgb in the right places. Making my dad a pc out of all my old bits and pieces so was the perfect excuse to get a new mb. One last thing, when you put your pc to sleep, the rams rgb turns off, yey!!

I have Windows 10 Pro, 32 and 64 bit, Windows Server 2019, and Red Hat linux 7 installed to this system. It was a painful experience.It doesn't tell you here, but 32 bit OSs are not supported. For some reason, even with the on-board graphics wound down to low resolution, only 948 Mb memory is available to Windows, and a bare-bones OS will use 700Mb of that. Where's the other 3GB? Gigabyte aren't saying. If you ask, they'll tell you it only supports Windows 10/64 bit.The Intel Ethernet driver installer universally insists that there is no Intel Ethernet hardware on the board. If you get the latest driver direct from Intel (easily found, but Windows 10 only), it will install to Pro editions,but not to Server 2019. A cheap LAN card just worked, right out of the box. Red Hat 7.6 was happy to use all the on-board hardware, once updated, but again, the cheap (TP-Link PCIe) add-on Ethernet card was needed at first.Get a photo of the serial number on the 24 pin power connector before you put it in a case, because otherwise you'll struggle to read it if you need to contact their support desk. I didn't like the answer I got, but it was very prompt.Oh, and leave that bit of black plastic in the CPU cage until after you've installed the CPU. It has instructions embossed on it, but it's not very prominent.OK, it's sold as a gaming system, and my requirements were for a stable machine giving decent performance without overclocking. Those are actually hard to source online. All those grumbles aside, I'm not disappointed.

Having built a fair few PC's in my time, they seem to get easier as the years progress. My latest one was a breeze, partly due to the ease of connecting this motherboard.The connectors are fairly well laid out around the board, so it's easy to get things looking neat. There's a nice header for the case connectors (which I found after I'd installed everything).Memory is 2 x CORSAIR VENGEANCE RGB PRO 32GB which works great. The multi-colour rippling LED colouring is nice (if you're into that sort of thing) but can't be replicated once you use the RGB Fusion software. You can only cycle through colours, not have lots on the same chip at the same time.I installed a 1TB M.2 drive which works great.Be sure to read the manual to see what support it has, as two M.2 chips are only supported in certain circumstances. It does boot up rather quick though! I'm also using all 6 SATA ports without issue.BIOS seems fine to me. You set it up, play with it a bit then leave it. Fan control is pretty good, as most turn off when it's ticking over. My i9 is running at 21C and it's only when you push it extra fans start up. Depending on your setup this is where any fan noise may spring in, but you can set it to not turn them off and keep them ticking over, which is nice.It's a solid motherboard and coming from a military electronics background, appears to be well made. Lots of pretty lights if that's your thing.

I am a long time fan of Gigabyte and this board does not disappoint. It has everything I need and more.I think my only criticism of Gigabyte is the rather crazy M.2 heat shields. These seem to preform pretty much no function at all and don't even contact the NVMe drives. I find it much better to just buy a separate heatsink for an M.2 and use those instead, throwing the shields in the bin. The positioning of the M.2's is bad too, since one is in a fan draft dead-spot under the CPU ( not so bad if you use a traditional fan heatsink on the CPU ), one of them is under the graphics card ( hot ), and the third, well, that one is the socket of choice.I just use a PCIe M.2 riser board though and ignore the M.2 sockets completely.The BIOS is undoubtedly unfriendly but it's no big deal really. You only need to understand it once then you can forget about it!The onboard display is useful if the board doesn't power up.One thing I found unnerving is for me the board powered up on the internal GPU so plug your monitor in to the hdmi socket on the back first. I then needed to setup the BIOS and disable the internal GPU before it powered up on the graphics card. I have no idea whether this is normal but just be aware that it might do that! If you are plugged in to the wrong thing it scares the heck out of you when it powers up with a black screen!!

Bought this Gigabyte Z390 Gaming X board to upgrade to 9th gen, fitted an i7 9700K, 16GB HyperX Fury 3200 RAM & EVGA RTX2070.It was very easy to build, mainly because the board layout is of a standard design. The manual is good, but the standard location of sockets definitely helped me too. It matched my old Asus board in it's design, which meant I could remove my old board and plug cables in without too much re-routing and without too much head-scratching.I haven't tweaked bios settings yet, I just set the boot order to install Windows from a usb and left the rest at default. On first power up it restarted itself a couple of times,then booted into my new Windows 10 usb.Installation of both board and Win OS were both very quick and trouble free.It ran perfectly well without using the supplied driver disk, but I have since installed latest chipset, audio & usb drivers to make sure it's fully up to date. (BIOS flash was not needed as it arrived with F8, the latest version).It's not one of the more expensive boards, but I don't plan on overclocking in any big way, if at all.Over the Moon with the result, it's all running quietly, cool, and unbelievably fast.

I took time looking for a well equipped Z390 Motherboard at a reasonable mid range price and this appears to tick all the boxes.Having upgraded the guts of my PC from an ageing Z97 board, Installation was be a little tricky in my case as some of the onboard ports and connections on this full size board were fiddly to get at, but once all together it was satisfying that it booted through POST first time and then I went straight in to BIOS. Nice addition in BIOS to switch from the graphical interface to a more text based "classic" layout.A little head scratcher after the fitting of my first ever M2 drive and subsequently filling up all 6 SATA connections, I found that last two SATA ports didn't appear to be working!?However once I read the relevant section in the manual all becomes clear that M2 drives share bandwidth with SATA and therefore 2 SATA ports will be unusable when the M2 slots are occupied. Not a major issue unless you still really need six SATA ports and an M2.The addition of both Bluetooth 5.0 and WIFI on this board as standard is great as I had previously been using add in cards and USB dongles so this is much neater.

I love gigabyte motherboards as they are the first ones I picked for my first gaming pc I went from 4690k to 9700k and pick this motherboard i was excited as I love building computers I followed the manual bit by bit and when everything was installed turn it on the motherboard lights up and everything but it kept restarting every 10 seconds and did not seem to go to post or boot when I checked it had an red light on the CPU led so I checked the cpu socket and it had 3 5 bent pins but I thought the computer would still work so tried again and then the motherboard refused to power up all together dissipate the motherboard led lights powering up but nothing else did this time it’s my first returningan item and I don’t know if it was my fault if it was am soo sorry am getting an replacement and hoping I can get my pc running. Thank youReplacement came and it works flawlessly no problems at all and am very pleased best board I used and the intel 9700k chip amazing fast feels like I can run any game or program without issues.

This is a MOBO that does the perfect job for a gaming PC. Value for the money is perfect. I am not going to list the all features it has but it combines practicality with performance and looks. The RGB lighting is sublime and can be controlled via RGB fusion. Mine came with an older BIOS version and it didn't boot or launch the XMP but a quick Q Flash later and it works perfectly. Overclocking wise it keeps my I7 9700k at 4.9GHz nice and stable with no concerning high temps (the 12 phase VRM does the job).System build on it:CPU: I7 9700kRAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB 3600MHzGPU: Palit JS RTX 2070 SuperCooling: Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML360R RGBMemory: Kingston A2000 (SA2000M8/500G)SSD NVMe 500GBWD Blue 3D NAND Internal SSD 2.5 Inch SATA - 1 TBPSU: Corsair RM750CASE: Cooler Master MasterBox MB520For the price and the functions it has it trumps over the other brands. On the Z390 chipset I would definitely recommend it over any MPG series from MSI and Strix series form ASUS.

I am very pleased with this Motherboard. Build and installation of components all went without any problems at all. Software all seems to work well, although there may be a bit too much. A couple of minor gripes that you might want to consider, but wouldn't put me of buying again;1) Heatsinks for SSD have adhesive pads on the rear, SSD comes with labels that say do not remove. Once pad is stuck to SSD I am not sure it will come off without peeling label off. I say this because I had considered changing location of SSD and there are two different sized heatsinks but decided not to because of this fact.2) Aurus lighting effect looks great on the pictures,but there are very few picture of the board with lighting effect being shown after build. The nicest part of the LED effect is obscured when the graphics card is installed in the X16 port. I didn't buy this board for the lighting effect, but if they are going to build it that way, they could have considered this.

Bought an i9 9900k and was using it in a z370 ASUS board, but it had issues with apps closing randomly and causing blue screen errors during high demand, particularly games. As someone with a bit of experience with PCs, I quickly suspected the CPU was not getting the proper juice it needed to remain stable. After some research, this was confirmed.I bought this motherboard with a better VRM to supply better voltage regulation to the CPU, and all the issues went away. It’s a solid, well made board which is much better constructed compared to most standard boards, as the PCB contains a copper layer.I would highly recommend this board to anyone wanting to build a work station level PC without the budget to splash out for the really high end stuff.And of course it’s also a great choice for gamers who want high end performance.

Bought this for a new PC build for my son - amazing. Paired with an I7 9700K processor, a Gigabyte RTX 2060 OC, a Samsung Evo 970 Pro M2 ssd and 32Gb memory. Fab for his first gaming PC !! Auto clocked itself to 4.9 mhz upon first boot up and now running at 5.1 mhz with no issues ! Aparrently he is happy with his 380+ FPS playing most games at full resolution and epic settings whatever that means :)Just one this was the CPU power socket(s)... was expecting only one 8 pin CPU power socket so bought a PSU with that oprion - but it has 2 CPU power sockets and so upgraded the PSU to a Seasonic 750w Prime Gold Pro which came with the right dual power connectors etc.Apparently cheaper PSU's only give you one 8 pin CPU power cable (which does work but if over clocking then best get the right PSU).

I honestly wasn't impressed with Gigabyte back in the AMD FX days having to RMA boards constantly but the last straw was when i sold a board online and it failed in 1 week causing me one of the biggest headaches i have had.....saying this though, i thought i would give them a try on my recent 9900K upgrade and i was not disappointed!The RGB the board has compliments my 2080Ti Seahawk & EK Coolant perfectly!The bios is easy to follow and was running 5 GHz after a few clicks and types!It's one of the best made board i have had and is extremely sturdy!Comes with loads of accessories & if you like stickers (i don't), it has loads!Even though i run a separate sound card i was impressed with how well it drove my headphones!All in all,it's a great board!

Bought this to replace a faulty MSI Carbon Z370 board I bought for my new PC.I've never been a fan of gigabyte, more due to the fact I never really paid much attention to them and thought they were a cheapo version of brands like ASUS and the like.However, after researching boards again to replace the MSI one, I found a lot of superclockers recommending Gigabyte because they use quality components, they are consistently manufacturered (you win the mobo lotto more often than not) and are well priced.So I took the hit and bought it; you can tell it's a quality bit if kit, the header locations/fan ports etc are all well laid out, it was very easy to put together.All in all a perfect performance board for a decent gaming rig!Gigabyte have a new fan.
