Compact Z590 Motherboard for Small Builds

The GIGABYTE Z590I AORUS ULTRA is a Mini-ITX board built on the Intel Z590 chipset for LGA 1200 processors. It supports 10th and 11th Gen Intel Core CPUs and runs dual-channel DDR4 across two slots. Integrated Intel WiFi 6 and 2.5GbE LAN handle networking without extra cards.

Suited for High-End Mini-ITX Systems

This board fits builders who want a full feature set in a compact layout, including robust 10+1 phase 90A VRM cooling and dual M.2 heatsinks. Buyers who need more than two memory slots, additional full-size expansion slots or legacy ports should look at larger form factors.

Dual PCIe 4.0 M.2 Slots Decide Storage Speed

Two M.2 connectors run at PCIe 4.0 x4 or 3.0 x4 for NVMe drives, each covered by a Thermal Guard heatsink. This specification sets the ceiling for boot and scratch-disk performance in a space-constrained build.

Questions about this item

What does the 10+1 phase 90A VRM mean for an 11th Gen Intel Core CPU in this Mini-ITX board?

The direct 10+1 phase digital VRM with 90A smart power stages delivers stable power to 11th Gen Intel Core processors, supporting high boost clocks within the compact Mini-ITX form factor.

How does the PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 interface cap real-world NVMe speeds on this Z590 board?

Dual M.2 slots run at PCIe 4.0 x4, so compatible NVMe drives can reach their full sequential read and write potential without bottlenecking from the chipset link.

What clearance does the Fins-Array II heatsink with twin heatpipes need in a Mini-ITX case?

The multi-layered PCH and M.2 heatsink uses two heatpipes and a fin array, so verify your case allows enough height above the motherboard for the VRM and chipset cooling assembly.
