It works without issue. It is one of the cheapest Z690 boards. I am using it with a 12600K and Crucial 3200 RAM. After installing Windows 11 I enabled XMP and received the full 3200 on the RAM.

easy to install GIGABYTE is my go to for motherboards no issues comes with everything you need.

The list of the pros is way too long!!!!

3 PCIE 4 NMVE slots Strong voltage regulation ROG STRIX brand, their other chipset MB sells for $500 - their engineers put only what is needed to get the lower price point. BIOS flash without having to power on MB before first boot when building.

Everything plugged in and worked first try. My first pc build ever but the wiring diagram was easy to read.

Has usb-c front connect, flash bios, many pcie slots, double m.2 and 4 ram slots. Plenty of headers for your fan and for your aio pump too.

PCIe 5.0 GPU Gen 5 SSD support EZ-DIY features like the M.2 clip and PCIe release button


So many storage options, no PCIE lane sharing! Solid board, well built. Definitely a premium product.

Nice features Very good looking

Ryzen 9 9900X+CORSAIR Vengeance 32GB +XFX SWIFT AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT OC White The board has lightning USB 40G and wifi 7 which makes it future proof. Clear CMOS and Flash BIOS buttons are very convenient. Lots of storage options.




Fairly easy to set up and install.

- High end looking and quality. - Low profile Bluetooth and WIFI antenna with great signal strength. - M.2 fan that can be completely turned off.

This build was for my cousin. He wanted white/gray build and wanted AMD with a budget of $1500. Paired with AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D and 4070 super. For case we went with Lian Li Lancool 216 White and MSI MAG Coreliquid A13 240 White for the cooler. So far he loves it. It was super easy to install and all the other components matched perfectly. The board has 1x GEN5 plus 2x GEN4 slot along with EZ PCIe release is so convenient. At the back of the board you have WiFi7, 5G LAN, USB4 Type-C and so many other connection options. It is future proof and build quality is very sturdy.

First time boot perfect! Bios worked out of the box with 7800x3d. Just needed WIFI driver. Really pleased with the board connections compared to other low/mid boards. They feel really good, the pins are solid and not flimsy like on other boards. I like the colored status lights, makes it easy to see it's booting. I like that the wifi 7 antennae bend and are adjustable. The white pcb looks good, and the RGB strip at the bottom looks neat. The bios options are extensive and you can change the color of the bios screen. I like that fan customization can be done with either a numerical interface or curves visualization. The quick release m2 gimmick all new boards have is not my favorite, but this one does feel like it latches pretty good and doesn't just fly off like the others-- it has two tangs like a safety catch.

Hidden back connectors, black brushed aluminum, minimal ambient light
