GIGABYTE GA-Z270-Phoenix Gaming Intel motherboard

SKU CH-KRXG-V1779

Z270 board for 6th and 7th Gen Intel CPUs with four DDR4 slots, dual M.2 for NVMe RAID, USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C, and 120 dB audio

  • Supports Intel 7th and 6th generation Core processors on LGA1151 socket
  • Four DDR4 DIMM slots enable up to 64 GB dual-channel memory
  • USB 3.1 Gen 2 delivers Type-C and Type-A ports for fast transfers
  • Dual M.2 slots accept NVMe and SATA drives with RAID 0 support
  • ALC1220 audio codec provides 120 dB SNR with smart headphone amp

Z270 chipset motherboard for LGA1151 CPUs

This GIGABYTE motherboard uses the Intel Z270 Express chipset and the LGA1151 socket to support 6th and 7th generation Intel Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron processors. It provides four DDR4 DIMM slots for dual-channel memory up to 64 GB with XMP support up to 3866 MHz. Integrated Intel HD graphics output is available for CPUs with onboard graphics.

Suits builders using 6th or 7th gen Intel CPUs

This board suits builders who already own a compatible LGA1151 processor and want Z270 features such as dual graphics support and Intel Optane Memory readiness. It is not for buyers who need a motherboard for 8th generation or newer Intel processors, as the socket and chipset are physically and electrically incompatible with later CPU families.

Dual M.2 slots with PCIe Gen3 x4 and SATA

The single specification that decides fit is the presence of two M.2 connectors that each accept NVMe PCIe Gen3 x4 or SATA SSDs, with support for RAID 0 across two NVMe drives. If your build requires only a single M.2 drive or relies on older SATA ports alone, the extra NVMe RAID capability will not be used.

Questions about this item

Will this board run my existing DDR4-2400 memory without overclocking?

Yes, DDR4-2400 is supported natively; higher speeds up to DDR4-3866(O.C.) require XMP profiles and manual tuning.

Can I install two NVMe SSDs and run them in RAID 0?

The board provides dual M.2 slots with PCIe Gen3 x4 and SATA interfaces and supports NVMe RAID 0 for two drives.

Which Intel processors fit the LGA1151 socket on this Z270 board?

7th and 6th generation Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron CPUs in the LGA1151 package are supported; check the vendor CPU list for exact models.
