Socket LGA 1151 (300 Series) ATX Board

The Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Pro Wifi is an ATX motherboard built for Intel 8th and 9th Generation Core i9, i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron processors in the LGA 1151 package. It uses the Intel Z390 chipset and includes integrated Intel HD Graphics support via an HDMI 1.4 port. The board features onboard Intel 802.11 ac Wi-Fi and RGB Fusion lighting.

Dual Channel DDR4 up to 4266 MT/s

Memory support centres on four 288-pin DDR4 slots running in dual-channel mode with a maximum capacity of 128 GB. Speeds range from 2133 MT/s up to 4266 MT/s when overclocked, covering a long list of intermediate frequencies. The VRM uses a 12+1 phase digital design with DrMOS components.

Builders Using 8th or 9th Gen Intel CPUs

This board suits builders pairing a 9th or 8th Generation Intel Core, Pentium or Celeron processor with high-speed DDR4 memory and onboard Wi-Fi. It is not compatible with older LGA 1151 CPUs, so anyone reusing a 6th or 7th Generation chip should choose a different motherboard.

Questions about this item

What does the 12+1 phase digital VRM with DrMOS mean for my CPU once the board is installed?

The 12+1 phase digital VRM with DrMOS delivers clean, stable power to the LGA 1151 socket, letting 8th and 9th Gen Core i9, i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron processors sustain high clocks under load.

Which PCI Express standard caps the top x16 slot, and what bandwidth does that limit me to?

The primary slot runs at PCI Express 5.0 x16, giving up to 128 GB/s of bandwidth for a graphics card or high-speed add-in card.

What physical space and mounting pattern does this ATX board need in my case?

It fits a standard ATX chassis with the usual nine mounting holes and the integrated I/O shield aligns with the rear cut-out.
