bad exposure for the pictures. But it's not high gloss white but definitely white. But why did they do the connectors in black? White would have been much better. For example if I fit a white power cable that motherboard connector is black. Stupid.
This reminds me of MSI's "Titanium" boards which were also more grey and silvery than white. It's not a bad look at all, but I'm looking at this for different theming than all-white build.
the REAL thing about the new gigabyte boards, the real thing about new z790 at this end-of-generation life anyway, is if they can ACTUALLY live up to their claims of better/guaranteed ram support at 7000-8000 range. for 4 dimm.
My board came bent on the PCB at the top, from the second 8Pin of the cpu to the middle of the board, right in the processor socket area, sad. I'll return it.
I have a question. I know these Gigabyte X boards are going to support gen 5 SSDs. So if I use 1 in the gen 5 slot will it affect my GPU. As in lowering it from X16 to X8 ??.
Skimming that top of the fence again Tom? You could catch splinters with your behind. :) IMO the off white and silver are good. Because when you put it in a white case and use white leds there will be a nice contrast, and components will be more accented. White, on white with white lights just gets washed out.
I already have this board on preorder. Im gonna pair it with a 4090 aero in a D41 Mesh LCD. Also really like the internal USBC DP header as it lets you run a sensor panel LCD with internal cables.
@@NobleSquad Technically nowhere but i work at a computer retailer so i can put preorders in when the product first shows in the system rather then when the public can.
I think like you too.. I bought the motherboard and am waiting for the new processor to be released. I will wait for the results of your tests until I decide which RAM is suitable.
Just when I've bought gigabyte z790 aero G 😅.... now I'm kinda wondering if I want to send it back and get my hands on this refreshed z790... looks to me as this one is evolution of aero G, because specs are very similar to aero G 😎
i have gigabyte 0 issue and problems and with INTEL NIC 0 issues cost was 550 euros.. it is only related with asus.. I had asus rog strix and i sold because of that and alot of blue screens with asus for no reason.
no , it can easy 8200 but not use XMP，XMP it is just a brainless mod for users whom never study OC knowledge , but GIGA all 14th motherboards can easy 8000-8200 sure ,it is truth , even overtake all 13th OC motherboards like aorus Ti , ROG APEX , EVGA Kingen , because 14th motherboards changed some design for memory ,cause it can OC easer than 13th MBs
I'm guessing 6 items covered up Guv, and like MSI I can't criticize Gigabyte for having more silver than white due to just how difficult it is to match white, but good on them for being brave enough to do a white based board, can we also have an AMD one please Gigabyte?
Their Vision Designare boards from a few years ago looked nicer. I dare say they were the nicest looking mb ever made. This jagged, angular motif should've died two decades ago.

let's hope that DDR5 will run stably at higher speeds than 7400Mhz (2x 16GB or 2x 24GB)
I hope we get way more "affordable" white PCB motherboards instead of the cheap ass low end stuff exclusive to china or Asus Apex extreme levels of pricing.
Funny you can't ention the 1400's coming out and J's just relaeased a video about them. I don't mind the silver to break up the white I'd prefer it oer a black
Not really a white board. Most plastic connectors could’ve been white (SATA, PCI Slots, etc). Very poor attempt by Gigabyte as certainly the “white” version will carry some premium when comes to price.
About time we got another white board.
I do love you mb reviews, actually the best there is from all the major media outlets for hardware.
Love white components but it looks more grey than white. Its still sexy though.Keep up the great work bro and stay safe.

This is basically an Z790 AERO G. Different Style + that 10GB Lan, onboard USBC-D and WIFI 7 instead of 6.

Love the white PCB.
i don't even need a new MB but with you i want to buy everything anytime haha
Hi. Would you still use a contact frame with these? If so, would it be the same that are currently used for 12/13th gen?
How much ram would you think is compatible? I was gonna get 7200mhz team t force

한국에서도 어서 빨리 볼수있었으면 좋겠군요! 화이트 메인보드 갖고싶어요!😍
When? I need it now! Can I buy yours Tom?
I have a question. I know these Gigabyte X boards are going to support gen 5 SSDs. So if I use 1 in the gen 5 slot will it affect my GPU. As in lowering it from X16 to X8 ??.
yes
I wish it had a Dr Debug or power button. You'd don't usually need either of these. But if you ever do, they are incredibly useful.
you can program the reset button for that in BIOS, for example safe boot
agreed. would like less silver, less all over designs/logos, more all white.
Thank u for ur review, just a quick question would u prefer this pro x board or the new asus strix z790-a wifi 2?
asus its only wifi 7, buy only if you use that
Looks great 👍

I think the color combo looks great. Goes with white build or really any other color you build with.
do you have the Z790 AORUS XTREME X ?
I wonder why it has an exposed wifi module? never seen that

Where is this available to pre-order?
@@NobleSquad Technically nowhere but i work at a computer retailer so i can put preorders in when the product first shows in the system rather then when the public can.
@@MrKeeleeer Oh lucky, do you know what the MSRP and release date will be?
@@NobleSquad I have a Canadian place holder price of $544 if i recall correctly. And no i dont know when release is.
i would buy it, but already have z690 A gaming wifi ddr5
I can't tell you how many things you covered up but I can tell you that you forgot to tape over things on the Master X box...
wich will be the price range for this?
Is 8000mz RAM stable on this motherboard? I bought it a few days ago but have not yet purchased the RAM
No idea yet - Ill be testing mine with 'next gen' CPU's (cpu is just as important for memory speed as the board)
I think like you too.. I bought the motherboard and am waiting for the new processor to be released. I will wait for the results of your tests until I decide which RAM is suitable.
stable absolutely , its OC performance overtake all 13th MBs , that have been tested
Just when I've bought gigabyte z790 aero G 😅.... now I'm kinda wondering if I want to send it back and get my hands on this refreshed z790... looks to me as this one is evolution of aero G, because specs are very similar to aero G 😎
many of these z790 motherboards are using intel NIC's and they are causing problems. nice to see this board is realtek
i have gigabyte 0 issue and problems and with INTEL NIC 0 issues cost was 550 euros.. it is only related with asus.. I had asus rog strix and i sold because of that and alot of blue screens with asus for no reason.
Realtek® 5GbE LAN chip (5 Gbps/2.5 Gbps/1 Gbps/100 Mbps)
did you guys test yet if these x boards can actually XMP 8200>?
no , it can easy 8200 but not use XMP，XMP it is just a brainless mod for users whom never study OC knowledge , but GIGA all 14th motherboards can easy 8000-8200 sure ,it is truth , even overtake all 13th OC motherboards like aorus Ti , ROG APEX , EVGA Kingen , because 14th motherboards changed some design for memory ,cause it can OC easer than 13th MBs
yeah i have an apex encore on the way for my 14900k and a nice kit @@lynver6719

What Realtek ethernet lan port model is it?
Very nice, x4 sata's dealbreaker for me
Still using those?

This board can run ddr5 8000mhz stable that's amazing
thumbs up
I think I spotted 8 things that where covered up but 2 where on the mobo stand due to gigglebyte never sending over a stand with their branding on it
How many layers pcb is it ?
8
I hope we get way more "affordable" white PCB motherboards instead of the cheap ass low end stuff exclusive to china or Asus Apex extreme levels of pricing.
I know what is the usbdp but that is for later and there ia more but that is also for later
Hmm, saw TACHYON X on that paper in the box
Wait!!!! Sata's being phased out!!!!! what!!!! NO Way?!?
Funny you can't ention the 1400's coming out and J's just relaeased a video about them. I don't mind the silver to break up the white I'd prefer it oer a black
Errrrm the other box was not covered..
did we really need to cover up the word ultra on the board like we all don't know what's going on right now lol jk :P
no CMOS clear button is an automatic pass for me
If only Gigabyte software wasn't trash.
MSI MPG Z790 CARBON MAX , better motherboard
14900k intel
I love white. But this looks rather disappointing. Too much silver. My main issue is the white looks kind of milky. Not for me
Intel Core is covered up...

Is he covering the inter 14 gen ready?
