Socket LGA 1151 Z390 micro-ATX board

This GIGABYTE motherboard fits micro-ATX cases and accepts Intel 8th and 9th generation Core i9, i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron processors in the LGA 1151 package. The Intel Z390 chipset provides a 10+2 phase digital VRM and an integrated I/O shield. It targets builders who want a compact platform with full overclocking features.

Four DDR4 slots up to 64 GB dual channel

Four 288-pin slots support DDR4 at 2666, 2400 and 2133 MHz in dual-channel mode for a maximum of 64 GB. That capacity handles gaming, content creation and heavy multitasking with headroom to spare. Only workloads that demand more than 64 GB or require ECC memory will outgrow this configuration.

Single PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot for graphics

One full-length PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot runs at x16 electrical, so a discrete graphics card receives the full bandwidth the chipset provides. Two additional x1 slots and two M.2 sockets (one PCIe x4, one SATA/PCIe) remain for add-in cards and storage. If a build needs multiple x16 GPUs this board cannot accommodate them.

Questions about this item

Will the LGA 1151 socket accept my existing 8th or 9th Gen Intel Core i7 processor?

The socket supports Intel 9000 series and 8th Generation Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron processors in the LGA1151 package.

How can I confirm the integrated graphics are active after installing the board?

Connect a display to the HDMI or DVI-D port; the Intel HD Graphics driver will report the active resolution and 60 Hz refresh rate.

What comes in the box and what must I source separately?

Only the motherboard and integrated I/O shield are included; mounting screws, DDR4 memory, a CPU cooler and storage drives are not supplied.
