Very good value board with tons of features. Good vrms, tames my 14700K no sweat. Great bios out of the box and easy oc/uv/xmp etc, no issues getting 6400mhz 32GB X2 running stable. Armory Crate software could use an overhaul.. that’s my only complaint, but everything can be done at a bios level, which I prefer anyways. Gigabyte has always served me well for mobos, and this one is no different.

My motherboard was defective right out of the box, but it took too long for me to collect the rest of the parts for my build and I didnโt discover the defect until after the return window had expired so now my only option is to deal with gigabyte directly. Their customer service is useless, and will not replace the motherboard with a new one so I will be stuck with a refurbished board for the price of a new one . I feel abandoned by the 30 day return policy and for parts like these it needs to be longer.

Purchased the used Z790 for $115. For half off, this is an unbeatable deal! Some h610 boards are more expensive. Came in great condition, no cosmetic or performance issues. Booted right up on first try. No RAM timing issues. Iโm using 2 X 16GB DDR5 5600 MHz RAM modules with an i3-13100f. I underclocked the RAM to 4800 MHz and no issues at all. UEFI is simple and easy to navigate, Gigabyte Center software is functional and easy to use as well. Great product, highly recommend going for the used option if you are somewhat experienced in PC builds! Tip: ALWAYS check for bent CPU pins before installing to avoid destroying a perfectly good CPU.

Owned for about a year now and it is a solid motherboard! Definitely felt overkill at the time but worth the investment. I am constantly troubleshooting other hardware and this board does an excellent job at handling it. I mostly work and game on it daily and the solid beefy heatsinks are a must. The only issue I have had with this board is I purchased the WIFI variant, and decided to install a dedicated PCIE Wireless card that caused my PC to freeze up and boot loop. Other boards I have worked with allowed for me to install a separate wireless card but this one did not. If you plan on installing a dedicated wireless card then definitely avoid the WIFI model. Other than this very minor niche issue, I believe this is a solid buy. Price has not changed much since my purchase last June 2023, dropping only about $30, currently July 2024 with a price of about $230.

EDIT: After some testing with new parts and tinkering with settings, I’ve figured that the main issue stemmed from the RAM, not the motherboard. I’ve never used DDR5 before so maybe it’s something to do with that, but I’ve found it impossible to use at full speed and have it be stable. Never ever use XMP. I’ve learned my lesson there. Also fixed my issue with boot up times/lighting not starting properly by messing with ErP and Fast Boot settings in the BIOS. Glad I get to use this board, it’s got wonderful I/O and it’s simple enough for what I need.
ORIGINAL: Just built my new PC and this motherboard has given me the most issues out of any parts by far. To start off with the bad, it has some power issues, fan lights will often not turn on or off alongside the PC, it takes a while to start up most of the time, and I can not use my RAM to its fullest speed. Using the motherboard’s built in XMP with 4x16GB DDR5-6400 MHz RAM causes only crashes when using the PC. (memtest shows 0 errors with the RAM itself.) Games will crash quickly and sometimes the entire system just blue-screens or freezes, and every time it’s related to the XMP, and I know this because going to a lower XMP profile, it works fine. Still a few crashes but it’s never anywhere near as bad as using it at full speed. This motherboard also just has some build quality issues. USB-3 plugin came off with the connector, making the pins exposed. Thankfully it still works, but that’s definitely not reassuring when it comes off that easily.
As for the good, this motherboard has a lot of I-O. 4 USB 2.0 ports on the back for your keyboard, mouse, etc. is always nice. Lots of USB 3.0 ports and also tons of slots on the motherboard itself. The NVME storage is very nice and has a good built-in heatsink for them. The motherboard itself also looks super clean, and is incredibly simple to install.
This motherboard definitely has a lot of potential, it’s possible I got a faulty board, and if I get more problems I’ll definitely end up getting a new one from a different brand. But, if you wanna take a chance, then this one could definitely work. For now, I think there’s a lot of issues that need ironing out and if you plan on getting high-end parts, you may want to look for something with more assured quality.

I dont normally write reviews but in this case I thought it was important enough to do so. I ordered two of these boards for my nephews.
I have no complaints about the boards themselves. They are fantastic boards that are feature rich for the good price. The board itself has solid construction and heat sinks everywhere. It is a great board and I would buy it again. Just not from this seller.
I was shipped not one but two used boards. Neither had the instruction manual in them. One had heat sink glue on the CPU socket and a CPU protective cover still there. I had to return that board because the pins also looked like they might be damaged and I wasn’t going to take a chance.
I may also return the other board because while it didnt show any potential damage the tap had been removed from the M.2 heat sink cover over the slot one M.2. This is the one with the really big heat sink. This is a full priced motherboard that claims it is a new mother board. This second one also was missing all the papwerwork.
