Product Features
- Unparalleled performance
Hungry for better performance? Z490 AORUS XTREME WATERFORCE has a full PCIe 4.0 design, supports high frequency memory, and comes with full SSD thermal guards to make sure you get the maximum full system performance. - Right-angled connectors
Z490 AORUS XTREME WATERFORCE uses revolutionary Right-Angled Connectors design, 90% of pin headers and connectors on motherboard are right-angled and relocated to one side of PCB. The never-seen-before design helps easier cable management and better in-chassis air-flow when installing great amount of devices. - AORUS M.2 Thermal Guard II
With durability in mind, GIGABYTE provides a thermal solution for large capacity M.2 SSD devices with double side flash. The M.2 Thermal Guard II uses a double-sided heatsink design and prevents throttling and bottlenecks on high speed M.2 SSDs by dissipating heat before it becomes an issue. - Next-generation connectivity
Z490 AORUS XTREME WATERFORCE provides all next-generation network, storage, and Wi-Fi connectivity to keep you up to speed. - Definitive aesthetics
GIGABYTE ID team designs Z490 AORUS XTREME WATERFORCE from the drawing board. After countless hours of conceptualizing ideas, fine tuning details, and engaging in discussion, GIGABYTE has produced a board that is equal parts beast and beauty.
