Gigabyte X399 Aorus Gaming 7 sports a spectacular design in which no use has been spared in the use of RGB LED lights to achieve a sensational aesthetic, we have to admit that the plate is gorgeous, even though what is really important is not related to lighting. This system is fully compatible with RGB Fusion technology and offers RGB heads capable of supporting up to 300 LEDs.

Logically the Gigabyte X399 Aorus Gaming 7 mounts a TR4 socket together with an X399 chipset to be fully compatible with the new AMD HEDT processors. Surrounding the socket we find eight DDR4 DIMM slots with support for a maximum of 128 GB of memory at a maximum speed of 3600 MHz in a four-channel configuration to get the most out of Threadripper processors.

As for the capabilities of the graphics subsystem, it includes no less than five steel-reinforced PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slots so that they can easily support the weight of the most powerful, large and heavy cards on the market. We continue with three M.2 slots with heat sinks and eight SAYA III 6 GB / s ports. Despite this, the PCI Express bus will not be saturated since one of the great advantages of Threadripper is that all models offer 64 lanes compared to 44 lanes that Intel Skylake-X offers at most.

The features of the Gigabyte X399 Aorus Gaming 7 continue with two USB 3.1 ports (Type-A + Type-C) to which are added eight USB 3.0 ports to allow the connection of a large number of peripherals and accessories. We continue with a PS / 2 combo port for mouse and keyboard, an Ethernet port and WiFi 802.11ac + Bluetooth wireless connectivity.
