Overview
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.
Fan pin header
Fan/Water Pump pin header
Temperature Sensors
Different models have different number of fan pin headers and temperature
sensors. Smart Fan 5 function may vary by model.
- 6 Temperature Sensors
- 3 Fan/Water Pump Connectors
- All Fan Pin Headers Upgraded to Hybrid Fan Headers
- Interoperable Fans and Sensors
- Intuitive UI for Fan Control
Hybrid Fan Headers
Achieve fan silence. With Fan Stop map any fan to stop completely when
temperatures drop below a specified threshold. Which fan stops, based on
readings from which sensor, and at what temperatureall of it can be customized
to your liking.
Hybrid Fan Pin Headers
Assume complete control over your liquid cooling setup! Smart Fan 5 receives
up-to-the-second information on flow-rate through the Hybrid Fan Pin
Headersgiving you absolute mastery over your PC.
All
Hybrid Fan Headers can automatically detect the type of cooling device whether
it be fan or pump with different PWM or Voltage mode.
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.
System Information Viewer
GIGABYTE System Information Viewer is a central location that gives you
access to your current system status. Monitor components such as the clocks and
processor, set your preferred fan speed profile, create alerts when temperatures
get too high or record your systems behavior; these are the possibilities of the
System Information Viewer.
AUDIO
ALC1220 120dB SNR HD Audio with Smart Headphone Amp
ALC1220 120dB SNR HD Audio
The ALC1220 is a high-performance multi-channel High Definition Audio Codec
with up to 120dB SNR for crystal clear audio and features such as Smart
Headphone Amp, 114dB SNR recording for precise voice chats and hardware decoding
of DSD128, ensuring users get the best possible audio quality from their PC.
Smart Headphone AMP
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.
High-End Audio Capacitors
GIGABYTE motherboards use high-end audio capacitors. These high quality
capacitors help deliver high resolution and high fidelity audio to provide the
most realistic sound effects for gamers.
Audio Noise Guard
GIGABYTE Z370 motherboards feature an audio noise guard that essentially
separates the boards sensitive analog audio components from potential noise
pollution at the PCB level. LED trace path lighting Illuminates to show the
separation of the PCB layers.

To create a seamless VR experience GIGABYTE Motherboards offer the best
features to make your virtual reality feel like your actual reality. With
technologies such as NVMe support via M.2 or U.2 and a one piece metal shielding
to brace for heavier discrete graphics cards it's obvious that GIGABYTE has the
tools you need to start your journey in VR. To set the mood GIGABYTE
Motherboards include RGB Fusion to put you in the center of action.
PERFORMANCE
Support for DDR4 XMP Up to 4400MHz and Beyond*
GIGABYTE is offering a tested and proven platform that ensures proper
compatibility with profiles up to 4400MHz 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 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.
LIGHTING
RGB Fusion with Digital LEDs
With Z370 Motherboards, RGB Fusion is even better with Digital LEDs.* RGB
Fusion offers users the option to control onboard and external LED light strips
for their PC. Already feature filled with colors and patterns, RGB Fusion on
Z370 Series Motherboards are now upgraded with Digital LED support. With onboard
options and external digital LED strips*, where each LED is digitally
addressable, users can experience even more patterns, styles, and
illuminations.
Z370 Motherboards will support either 5v or 12v digital LED strips. RGB
Fusion with Digital LEDs comes with 9 new patterns and various speed settings
with more to come.
*Digital LEDs are available only on select Motherboards, external LED
Strips, Digital LED Strips are not included with Motherboard purchase.
Supports RGBW &V Light Strips
Independently Programmable Onboard Pin Header for RGBW/UV LED
Strips
Not bright enough? You can install standard 12V external RGB, RGBW or RGB/UV
light strips on the RGBW pin header and control its color from the RGB Fusion
software. Using a RGBW light strip with a dedicated white LED, users will
experience brighter and more vibrant shades of colors.
When using RGB/UV LED strips, users can give their systems a fluorescent glow
with the use of UV reactive liquid, neon braided cables, and acrylic paint for a
wicked-looking gaming PC.
No need to worry when choosing light strips as GIGABYTE motherboards support
a wide variety of RGBW/UV light strips on the market thanks to the RGB Fusion
software that allows users to redefine the pin location for the R/G/B
Signal.
RGB Fusion (Advanced mode)
With the all new RGB Fusion software, users have access to different preset
LED lighting configurations with choice of colors. You can even set the LEDs to
synchronize with your favorite music or have them change colors to indicate the
CPU temperature. For true lighting experts there is an Advanced Mode, which can
be fully customized by individual area with its own effects and color
transitions, along with specific duration and transition times.
GIGABYTE RGB Fusion APP
Don't just make your PC shine, make it a work of art that friends will envy.
With the GIGABYTE RGB Fusion mobile app users can watch as they control the
lighting within their gaming PC. This gives users ease of access as they try and
adjust colors and speeds for different modes, all this can be achieved away from
the keyboard and monitor of their PC.
ULTRA DURABLE
GIGABYTE Patented Double Locking Bracket
Long Lifespan Durable Black Solid Caps
GIGABYTE motherboards integrate the absolute best quality solid state
capacitors that are rated to perform at maximum efficiency for extended periods,
even in extreme performance configurations. With ultra-low ESR no matter how
high the CPU load, this provides peace of mind for end users who want to push
their system hard, yet demand absolute reliability and stability. These
exclusive capacitors also come in customized jet black, exclusively on GIGABYTE
motherboards.
GIGABYTE Patented DualBIOS Design
GIGABYTE Ultra Durable motherboards feature GIGABYTE DualBIOS, an exclusive
technology from GIGABYTE that protects arguably one of your PC's most crucial
components, the BIOS. GIGABYTE DualBIOS means that your motherboard has both a
'Main BIOS' and a 'Backup BIOS', protecting users from BIOS failure due to
virus, hardware malfunction, improper OC settings or power failure during the
update process.
START SULFURIZATION PROTECTION
Sulfur compounds in the air can penetrate tiny onboard resistors creating
chemical change and causing these resistors to open or short. If either of these
occurs the motherboard will fail to function. By equipping resistors with an
Anti-Sulfur Design GIGABYTE gives Ultra Durable Motherboards a whole new
meaning.
