Gigabyte Z490i Aorus Ultra Mini ITX Gaming Motherboard
ULTIMATE POWER DESIGN

To fully support the latest 10th Gen ten- cores CPU, the Z490I AORUS ULTRA is equipped with the ultimate power solution with the desired features: direct, digital and multiple phases. After countless experiments and tests, GIGABYTE presents the unbeatable Z490I AORUS ULTRA for enthusiasts and gamers.

UNPARALLELED PERFORMANCE

GIGABYTE realize that our customer won’t stop chasing a better computer performance. We take care of it and implement more on products. Optimized memory trace enhance the performance. Faster read and write are needed to save time and improve efficiency. We offer plenty of M.2 Storage with thermal guards to ensure unthrottled read and write. In advance, adopting PCIe 4.0 ready components get the Z490 easier to upgrade.

NEXT GENERATION CONNECTIVITY

Network connectivity is getting more important nowadays. Majority of Desktop PC are with both ethernet and WIFI for the stable connection to avoid interrupt or bad signal. The Z490I AORUS ULTRA features the fastest WIFI 6 that improves the reliability and performance in dense environment. Furthermore, As 4k Monitor become more popular, ultra high resolution display output is also required.
