GIGABYTE Z390 AORUS PRO Wi-Fi (Intel LGA1151/Z390/ATX/2xM.2 Thermal Guard/Onboard AC Wi-Fi/RGB Fusion/Gaming Motherboard)

It was just under $200 when I purchased it. It's a great motherboard, but it is NOT for beginners. I have been using this motherboard since October 2020 and it has been smooth sailing.A few notes I had to learn the hard way since it isn't well documented...- The board IS Windows 11 compatible. You have to go into the BIOS settings, activate TPM, and then Windows 11 can be installed without issue- It is ARGB compatible, but the instructions are... confusing to say the least, in the instruction manual.- Gigabyte is not known for having robust or stable firmware, but it can still be a worthwhile experience if you know how to manage itAs I mentioned, this is not a board for beginners. There are certain caveats to consider when purchasing a performance-oriented, but budget-friendly board, that can be easily overlooked if you don't know what you are doing.Even so, for the features and performance alone, it is definitely a 5-board for PC builders with a bit of experience.

I've got nothing bad to say about this one. I'm not a Gigabyte fan in general, but they got this one right. I put a lot of effort into building it as a gamer for a specific client, and it did everything well when I tested it and shipped it out. Just recently had contact with the buyer, he absolutely loves it still, won't even consider "upgrading" to the Intel 10 series because he doesn't want to switch boards. This has all the bells and whistles (ARGB headers being his favorite), but it's still as rock solid performance-wise as they come. The lighting is cool, even I admit it. The software to control it is even better in my experience than most, and I was able to tweak the settings I'd normally not want to saddle a buyer with right out of the box. Great board, fair price.

I got this for $189, which I think was a great deal. The board is fast, has lots of good bells and whistles, and even a little bling with LED lights that can be controlled via software through Windows. The built-in WiFi is a huge plus, and it has a jillion USB ports.One thing that's often overlooked is the layout of the board. I have a big Noctua CPU air cooler, and the RAM doesn't get in the way on this board. The 16x PCI slot is also far enough away from the CPU that the graphics card doesn't cram up against the CPU cooler either, which is an improvement over other mobos I've had in the past.I don't do any crazy overclocking or extreme builds or whatever, so I can't comment on that. But for some gaming and a little A/V work, I can't complain at all about the board. Put a fast processor and enough RAM into it and I think you'll be happy.

This good, solid motherboard for gaming or everyday use PC. I choose this one as it has variety of ports and additionally wifi card build in. In case you decided to move your PC to different room and there is no network socket - no problem, use wifi. Also this motherboard have very good and stable CPU power supply, support DDR4 RAM, dual M2 sockets for fast hard drives with thermal guards (motherboard have multi cuts heatsinks and heat pipes). If you planning to use for gaming computer it has what they call "Smart Fan 5" allow to connect enough fans and maintain stable cooling and performance. For some it would be additional benefit - Digital LED's installed on motherboard which give excellent look through transparent side of PC case. For those who needs (I'm not using this due to cost) it also support Intel optan memory. Highly recommend this motherboard especially that price is very attractive - you can spend more on other necessary components.
