With an aggressively redesigned armor & thermal heatsinks its sure to turn heads & catch eyes. Performance is no stranger to GIGABYTE, with exotic cooling & an ability to be tuned to peak performance GIGABYTE motherboards will exceed expectations. Triple NVMe PCIe x 4 M.2 with Thermal Guard With a high-end platform that is already so feature-filled triple M.2 support is a rarity. X299 DESIGNARE EX Motherboard has focused on delivering this technology to enthusiasts who want to maximize their systems potential. With Triple M.2s available on the X299 Series, configuring RAID Arrays have never been simpler. Armor GIGABYTE X299 DESIGNARE EX is designed with an aggressive stance, but looks are just the beginning. The armor on the GIGABYTE X299 DESIGNARE EX is created to offer best-in-class performance while still staying cool. Base Plate GIGABYTE Motherboards are the perfect choice when starting your PC build. With an integrated base plate, GIGABYTE Motherboards give users a strong foundation to build their Gaming PC. With larger & heavier coolers, graphics cards, & even memory modules the GIGABYTE Base Plate is perfect to help support any enthusiast’s build while reducing cuts & stings from sharp areas of the motherboard. I/O Shield Armor With an integrated I/O shield building an GIGABYTE Gaming PC is even easier.* Gone are the days of realizing that the rear I/O was forgotten or lost. 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. RGB Fusion with Digital LEDs With X299 Designare EX motherboard RGB Fusion is even better with Digital LEDs.* RGB Fusion offers users the option to control onboard & external LED light strips for their PC. Already feature filled with colors & patterns, RGB Fusion on X299 Designare EX motherboard is now upgraded with Digital LED support. With onboard options & external digital LED strips*, where each LED is digitally addressable, users can experience even more patterns, styles, & illuminations. X299 Designare EX motherboard will support either 5v or 12v digital LED strips. 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.
