Unique Features

Enhanced VRM Design The Z390 AORUS ELITE uses a 12*+1 phases digital CPU power design and has additional 8+4 Solid-pin CPU Power Connectors that allows enthusiasts to get the absolute maximum performance from the new 9th Gen Intel Core processors.	RGB Fusion The onboard Digital LED's shine beautifully against the Z390 motherboard's monochrome pallet. Paint your system with bold colors with full RGB support and a redesigned RGB Fusion application, which gives the user complete control over the LEDs which surround the motherboard.	Smart Fan 5 With Smart Fan 5 users can ensure that their gaming PC can maintain its performance while staying cool. Smart Fan 5 allows users to interchange their fan headers to reflect different thermal sensors at different locations on the motherboard and gives users up-to-the-second details on flow rate and temperatures.

Unique Features

M.2 Thermal Guard With durability in mind, GIGABYTE provides a thermal solution for M.2 SSD devices. The M.2 Thermal Guard prevents throttling and bottlenecks from high speed M.2 SSDs as it helps to dissipate heat before it becomes an issue.	Front USB Type-C Equipped with next generation connectivity, AORUS motherboards already support the chassis of the future. The onboard USB Type-C header for USB 3.1 Gen1 makes access convenient when connecting a USB 3.1 Gen1 drive or charging your new mobile device.	AORUS 360 Armor AORUS motherboards are layered with Ultra Durable protection, such as an Integrated I/O shield, memory armor and PCIe armor, to give users a strong foundation to build their gaming systems.
