Z390 Aorus Master ATX motherboard

The Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Master is an ATX motherboard built for the LGA 1151 socket. It supports Intel 8th and 9th Generation Core i9, i7, i5, i3, Celeron and Pentium processors. The board uses a 12-phase IR digital VRM with PowIRstage components. It includes an integrated I/O shield for simpler installation.

Builders needing 8th or 9th Gen Intel on ATX

This board suits builders assembling a system around Intel 8th or 9th Generation LGA 1151 processors who want robust power delivery and integrated Wi-Fi. It is not for buyers whose CPU uses a different socket or who require a smaller form factor such as micro-ATX or mini-ITX. It also does not suit anyone needing support for newer processor generations.

12-phase digital VRM with PowIRstage

The 12-phase IR digital VRM solution with PowIRstage is the specification that defines this board's power capability. It delivers clean current for high-end Core i9 and i7 chips under sustained loads. If your build targets a lower-power processor or a tighter budget, a board with a simpler VRM may be more appropriate.

Questions about this item

What DDR4 memory speeds does the Z390 Aorus Master support, and where does overclocking begin?

The board runs DDR4 at 2133, 2400 and 2666 MHz natively; every speed from 2800 MHz up to 4400 MHz is marked O.C. and requires manual tuning.

What clearance does the 12-phase VRM heatsink and fins-array design need for a CPU cooler?

The VRM heatsink and direct-touch heatpipe sit close to the LGA 1151 socket, so choose a cooler that clears the top heatsink fin stack.

How do I enable the front-panel USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C header during installation?

Connect the case cable to the motherboard header, then enable the USB 3.1 Gen 2 controller in BIOS or the port will stay inactive.
