Double the speed compared to the previous generation. Extreme Performance with M.2 NVMe SSD With durability in mind, GIGABYTE provides a thermal solution for M.2 drives. The M.2 Thermal Guard prevents throttling & bottlenecks from M.2 devices as it helps to reduce & dissipate heat before it becomes an issue. Dual-Mode M.2 Slot Design Support both PCIe NVMe + SATA SSDs GIGABYTE Motherboards are built with dual M.2 slots. With a PCIe NVMe + SATA dual-mode design on both M.2 slots, users can build a RAID storage system with two NVMe M.2 SSDs, two SATA mode M.2 SSDs or a SATA mode M.2 SSD + a general SATA SSD. This configuration is designed for flexibility & adaptation to fit most users & gamers requests. RGB Fusion with Digital LEDs Support With AORUS Motherboards, RGB Fusion is even better with Digital LEDs.* RGB Fusion offers users the option to control onboard RGB & external RGBW / Digital LED light strips for their PC. Already feature filled with colors & patterns, RGB Fusion on AORUS Motherboards are now upgraded with Digital LED support. With external digital LED strips*, where each LED is digitally addressable, users can experience even more patterns, styles, & illuminations. AORUS Gaming Motherboards will support either 5v or 12v digital LED lighting strips & up to 300 LED lights. RGB Fusion with Digital LEDs comes with 9 new patterns & 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. 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 & Voltage mode fans have been introduced to make the motherboard more liquid cooling friendly.
