Smart Fan 5
With Smart Fan 5 users can ensure that their gaming PC can maintain its
performance while staying cool. Smart Fan 5 allows users to interchange their
fan headers to reflect different thermal sensors at different locations on the
motherboard. Not only that, with Smart Fan 5 more hybrid fan headers that
support both PWM and Voltage mode fans have been introduced to make the
motherboard more liquid cooling friendly.
All Hybrid Fan Pin Headers
- All Hybrid Fan Headers can automatically detect the type of cooling device
whether it be fan or pump with different PWM or Voltage mode.
- Supports up to 2 amps with built-in overcurrent protection—a must for
high-end high current fans.
- Closed Loop Watercooling
- CPU Fan
- System Fan
- Watercooling Pump
New Smart Fan 5 Software
Choose from different modes, Quiet to Full Speed, to match your system usage
scenario. For each fan or pump, you can use the intuitive fan curve to define
trigger thresholds and corresponding fan speeds.
Interoperable Sensors and Fans
- Each fan can be customized to operate at different speeds according to any
defined temperature source input (except the CPU fan).
Fan Curve
- Customize fan curves based on specific temperatures with the intuitive
graphical UI.
Enhanced BIOS Interface
The enhanced BIOS interface also has the advanced features seen in the Smart
Fan 5 UI, such as: the ability to set triggers based on different temperature
sensors on the board, fan curve definition and the temperature interval setting,
which can prevent fan rotation noise caused by sudden temperature changeall
without having to load Windows.
Ambient LED
Ambient lights are now programmable, You can have them beat to the rhythm of
the music you are listening to, or pulse at a soothing pace to create an
atmosphere that enhances the environment of your game, movie or music.
ALC 1220 120dB SNR HD Audio with Smart Headphone Amp
- Exceptional audio listening experience with 120dB SNR andsupport for
DSD128 hardware decode.
- Smart Headphone Amp automatically adjusts volumes based on detected
headphone impedance.

Automatically detects impedance of your head-worn audio device, whether
earbuds or high-end headphones to provide optimal audio dynamicspreventing
issues such as low volume and distortion.
USB DAC-UP 2 | Adjustable Voltage USB Port with Dedicated Power
Design
- GIGABYTE improves upon USB DAC-UP technologies with USB DAC-UP 2.
- USB DAC-UP 2 continues to provide clean, isolated and low-noise power
while adding the ability to compensate for voltage drop.
- Virtual reality pioneers and gamers alike can rest assured that their
expensive accessories and peripherals will not encounter connectivity or power
deficiency issues with the GIGABYTE USB DAC-UP 2. With Gaming Gear drawing
large amounts of power and having firm specification requirements USB DAC-UP 2
is up for the challenge.
Immersive VR Gaming Experience
- VR requires more performance than Full HD graphics for a steady 90FPS or
greater.
- Only Gaming PCs can provide the best VR experience.
2-Way CrossFire Multi Graphics
Multi-graphics configuration offers better graphics performance for gaming
enthusiasts who demand the highest frame rates without compromising on
resolution.
Killer E2500 Gaming Network
Killer E2500 is a high-performance, adaptive gigabit Ethernet controller
that offers better online gaming and media performance compared to standard
solutions.

Networking Performance
Fast Onboard Storage with NVMe PCIe Gen3 x4 110mm M.2 (Up to 32
Gb/s)
GIGABYTE's M.2 solution offers considerably faster storage performance and
support for both PCIe and SATA interfaces for M.2 SSD devices.
PURE SPEED
GIGABYTE Extreme USB 3.1 Motherboards
The ASMEDIA2142 USB 3.1 controller utilizes 2 PCIe Gen3 lanes, offering a
total of up to 16 Gb/s, which means you have extra bandwidth to take full
control of the 10 Gb/s USB 3.1 ports. With twice the bandwidth compared to its
previous generation, and backwards compatibility with USB 2.0 and 3.0, the much
improved USB 3.1 protocol is available over the new reversible USB Type-C and
the traditional USB Type-A connector for better compatibility over a wider range
of devices.
Connecting the Future - USB Type-C
- The World's Next Universal Connector
- Reversible USB Type-C with USB 3.1 Gen 2
Diagnostic LEDs | Hardware Troubleshooting at a Glance
Onboard LEDs controlled by the system BIOS indicate if a malfunction is
occurring, allowing users to quickly diagnose which major component
(CPU/DDR/VGA/HDD) is malfunctioning so they may take action promptly
Support for DDR4 XMP Up to 3866MHz and Beyond*
GIGABYTE is offering a tested and proven platform that ensures proper
compatibility with profiles up to 3866MHz and beyond. All users need to do to
attain this performance boost is to ensure that their memory module is XMP
capable and that the XMP function is activated and enabled on their GIGABYTE
motherboard.
What is XMP?
DDR4 memory modules are available at a stock frequency of 2133MHz, but as
frequency tweaking requires a considerable amount of effort and knowledge,
memory vendors encode XMP profiles which can automatically modify the timings of
the supported memory modules to work with your CPU and to achieve increased
performance.
GIGABYTE Patented Double Locking Bracket
TriDef SmartCam | Custom Stream Modding
To facilitate being the full streaming solution each GIGABYTE motherboard
includes TriDef SmartCam software, you are now able to remove backgrounds
without the hassle of using a green screen. Through the SmartCam application you
can now apply live filters, and fully control your background, not only while
streaming, but also through other video applications such as Skype.
