- Let's have another go - Marcel, 14 January 2025
Having lost my 8-year-old Gigabyte Z170x Ultra Gaming to failure I was not deterred from purchasing another Gigabyte motherboard, since that MB had worked hard. This MB has 4 M.2 slots, 6 Sata plugs, plenty of USB ports and much improved cooling for the MB chips. The BIOS menu is also easy to use and customize.
- Great performance and thermals - Lodewyk, 2 August 2023
Everything I need to get the most out of my 13700K CPU and RX 7900 XT GPU. It runs very cool and has more than enough USB ports. The RGB integration works quite well. My previous Gigabyte board (from 2017) still runs like a champ. I expect the same of this one.
- Always used Gigabyte never had problems - Vincent, 15 May 2023
Always used Gigabyte and never had problems.
