GIGABYTEZ890 AORUS Elite WIFI7 Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) LGA 1851 Motherboard, ATX, DDR5, 4X M.2, PCIe 5.0, Thunderbolt 4, WIFI7, 2.5GbE LAN, EZ-Latch

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Works great! The quality definitely justifies the price. Do yourself a favor and spend a little more on a mother board as nice as this one so you don’t regret it later with a cheap one.

Over the las few decades, I have been a loyal Gigabyte motherboard customer. However, this board refused to accept any of 3 different brands of DDR 5 memory. I posted a chat support request which was unanswered for two weeks. Finally, support suggested using a different CPU. At the time I had only one LGA 1855 CPU. By the time support replied, I had already returned the product. The CPU is now happily running in on an ASUS TUF Gaming Z790-Pro WiFi motherboard.

So far so good, blistering fast, almost too fast for basic functions like web browsing; I'll get used to it. GB Z890 AE Wifi 7 MB, Ultra i9 285K, DDR5-64GB 6400 MHz (4800MT/s), PCIE 5 M.2 SSD 1T, Intel Graphics (for now), direct CPU access to SSD bypassing the chipset. Installation and set up was nothing abnormal, typical driver type obstacles during Win 11 installation but I've encountered much more problematic builds/start-ups. Wifi was not recognized, had to plug in an older alternative Wifi USB with preloaded Win 11 driver to establish a Wifi connection to download drivers for the WiFi 7. Another option would be hardwire EN. Not all drivers are available in the OS install package, common problem with newly released components. Tried using the AI DDR analysis/boost function to boost/max out DDR performance, stopped booting on first attempt. Was 100% my fault, there's more to the numbers, memory clock speed AND latency must match, lesson learned. Again, no big deal, simple CMOS reset (super easy, see manual) to factory and I was up and running in about 5-10 minutes. I like the MB, arrived new in the box with factory seal, would recommend. Have built several PCs over the years using GB MBs, not due to brand loyalty but that's how things worked out. Never an issue, many GB MBs are still in use well over a decade later.

I bought the aorus wifi 7 z890 board most costly I think. Anyway I went from a i7 3770kf 3rd gen build windows 7 to this with an ultra 265kf. It was a pain adjusting to the new bios type but once I figured it out and the mess that is installing windows 11 its hands down easier to work with then older bios I’ve used and I been building pcs since 1991/2 whenever intel 486 dx/2 66mhz was top end. So that’s saying a lot since I normally prefer older style stuff to most newer tech when it comes to control. Also I went to build a i7 14700kf last year using a asus tuf mb and I couldn’t even get it to boot. Whatever is up with the mess that is 14th gen they can keep it. I left asus cause I know whatever the cause was it was motherboard side and something to do with newest i7 gen’s. So I suggest if building a newer pc go with the ultra series processor and not the I series. I had no issues with this build other then don’t install any extra ssd/hdd until windows is done installing completely.i highly recamend this mb

The first MB purchased was DOA. Yep, Gigabyte and Amazon sold me a LEMON!The second motherboard arrived today. It is damaged. See the picture.Notice that the socket pins are damaged in three places.If the third motherboard I ordered arrives damaged, I will no LONGER buy another Gigabyte motherboard for the foreseeable future. I have never had so many issues with a motherboard as with GIGABYTE.So far...Amazon and GIGABYTE sell damaged goods. Either Amazon does not check the returned products before deeming them worthy of resale, or GIGABYTE's QA is smoking some wacky weed on the job. Either way, I am only giving GIGABYE...ONE...MORE...CHANCE!

Perfecto. El único problema que tube fue por falta de conocimiento con la tarjeta de vídeo. No sé si sea con este modelo de placa o que. Pero solo muestra para entrar al BIOS si se utiliza el displayport.. si utilizas HDMI para tratar de entrar al BIOS no va a mostrar nunca nada. Solo por el Displayport sirve. Todo excelente gran MB.

The installation and setup instruction are very poor. A printed manual is not included in the box, and the downloaded pdf manual is very lacking and/or inaccurate. It continually tells you to navigate to a certain page of Gigabytes webpage for important instructions, but these pages ARE NOT ON THE GIGABYTE WEBSITE! So I've been scouring the web looking for reliable information on installation and BIOS setup. Gigabyte.com is absolutely useless. It's very infuriating, and I'm really thinking about returning the board and buying a different brand.UPDATE...7/22/25I would never buy a Gigabyte product again! There are really too many negative things to mention and I haven't even got it running yet. If you are a computer guru and very familiar with building the new generation of PCs, you may be OK with this board. I'm not. My last PC build was 14 years ago (with a Gigabyte main board) and all went very smoothly because they included a nice, comprehensive manual. With this board, I'm on my own, trying to figure everything out by using logic or searching the internet. There's very little info out there of any use for this board, and the downloaded manual is very incomplete and unclear.Maybe all brands of motherboards are the same, but I'm not enjoying this build a bit. I'd recommend staying away from this board and Gigabyte in general.

Hermosa, visualmente me encanta y tiene los suficientes puerto que se necesitan
