GIGABYTE X870E AORUS MASTER: ATX motherboard with AMD AM5 socket and X870E chipset
The GIGABYTE X870E AORUS MASTER is equipped with the high-end X870E chipset designed for AMD’s Ryzen 9000 series processors, offering numerous features for overclockers, enthusiasts, gamers, and content creators. The Ryzen 9000 series also uses the tried-and-tested AM5 socket (LGA 1718).
Additionally, the AMD X870E motherboard offers USB 4.0, now standard, with data transfer rates of up to 40 Gbit/s. Moreover, the GIGABYTE X870E AORUS MASTER supports PCIe 5.0, providing double the bandwidth for graphics cards and NVMe SSDs compared to PCIe 4.0.
Ready for gaming
The motherboard is optimized for overclocking, ensuring you can enjoy even demanding games. The voltage regulators with 20 virtual phases provide 110 A to ensure stable power delivery to the CPU, enabling high clock speeds over extended periods. Features like BIOS Flashback and Clear CMOS allow you to recover your system in case of issues. As usual, DDR5 RAM can be pushed to higher clock speeds as well.
