Gigabyte makes the jump to pcie 4.0 with x570 aorus motherboards

AORUS is placed at the forefront of technology with its AORUS X570 motherboards, which will be compatible with PCIe 4.0 connections.

GIGABYTE Announces Two X570 AORUS Motherboards

Third generation Ryzen processors have been announced and will arrive in July, and alongside them, the new series of X570 motherboards. In total there are two products confirmed by Gigabyte. They are the X570 AORUS XTREME and X570 AORUS MASTER.

X570 AORUS XTREME

This motherboard uses a 16-phase design and has a reactive heatsink in the critical areas of the VRM. As we know, it will support second and third generation Ryzen processors.

The motherboard uses three M.2 PCIe 4.0 / 3.0 connections. The four DDR4 slots are compatible with ECC and non-ECC memories. WiFi 6 integration is guaranteed along with QUANTIA 10Gbe LAN connectivity.

There is no lack of RGB lighting present here and compatible with RGB Fusion in multiple areas of the motherboard. You can read more product information here.

X570 AORUS MASTER

This motherboard is a little more modest than the previous one and uses a 14-phase power design. It has 4 DDR4 DIMM slots, WiFi 6 and three M.2 connections. The motherboard does not make use of a 10GbE LAN connection, but 2.5GbE.

RGB Fusion lighting is also present but its implementation is more modest. You can see the full specifications here.

The implementation of PCIe 4.0 offers a bandwidth of 32GB / s, which should improve the performance of those products that use this type of connection, such as graphics cards and M.2 SSDs.

At the moment, we do not know the prices of both motherboards.
