I don't understand why it got negative reviews because I found it easy to set up and use. It worked right away and it accepted my Windows 11 install. Bonus, it came with two 16 gb of memory that this board accepts.
Happy it comes with a digital BIOS Q-Code display along with pins for a beep speaker. Gigabyte appears to be using a new and updated BIOS interface, which is different from the Z370 and Z390 Aorus motherboards that I have.
My motherboard purchase from new egg was very good. The board was new in a sealed box with all parts and worked perfect for my son's new build. I tried purchasing a board from Am-a-zon. What a disaster that was. First time they sent me an opened box, likely used board. Returned. Secured board was DOA and wouldn't turn on. New egg was a way better experience.
Always been of fan of gigabyte brands , 20 years no problems
Looks nice in my setup and working great
- Perfect Productivity MoBo - 4 Simultaneous Displays supported! 2 DP, 1 HDMI, 1 VGA - More I/O than I can use - Great price
I recently upgraded my PC with the MAG Z790 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI motherboard, and I've been quite pleased with it. While it might not be the absolute top-of-the-line, it's been a dependable workhorse for my gaming and daily tasks. The performance is strong, the design is simple yet stylish, and I've found it to be a great value for a mid-range system. It's become the heart of my gaming rig, and I'm happy with the results.
Worked with the core i5 13600k with no BIOs update. I used a LAN line for the setup and it worked flawless. Plenty of connections of all types for fans, peripherals, etc
Have not done anything except open box took a pictutr and tried to report the issue to Newegg
Simple setup, worked and updated itself on first power up zero issues thus far. Massive heat sinks everywhere running benchmarks so far everything has been optimal. Nothing over 70c at 100% on processor,board, or video card. Wish I had known before hand they had heat sinks installed on the M.2 sockets for M1 M3 and M4. Wouldnt have had to buy memory with heat sinks. This is more positive than negative hence the pros column.
The rgb on the motherboard looks really good the pcie button makes installing larger cards such as the 5090 much easier to do
Great motherboard for the price, I was surprised when I tested it with I9 14th gen K and i found out it work without needing to upgrade the Bios, over all it is great option for budget built however it is not fancy as you think but it do the job
Cheap Overclocking Support Good Looking
Easy setup. clear labeling
Sleek and powerful, definitely worth more than it costs
-beautiful board -plenty of high speed connections (TB5, TB4, 10G LAN, etc)
Well built with quality parts.
This motherboard is easy to configure compared to earlier generations. The bus speeds appear to the fantastic, supporting the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K purchased along side. The newer 1080 bios interface is a welcome upgrade. I am not using it to it's full potential yet as I really purchased it for future proofing my rig.
Easy set up. No issues. I didn't use the Gen5 SSD at the moment and only use Gen4 SSD's. Hopefully in the near future there will be more options better suited for it to use alongside different manufacturer sales. Yes, it's all about the costs. But it's there when wanted as time goes by.
Works great as advertised. No issues out of the box. Rtx 4090 with i9-14900kf.
