Name: GIGABYTE Z890 AORUS PRO ICE Motherboard - Intel Z890, DDR5, PCIe 5.0
Brand: GIGABYTE

GIGABYTE Z890 AORUS PRO ICE Motherboard arrives as a high-performance ATX solution built around the Intel Z890 chipset and designed for Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) processors on the LGA 1851 (Socket V1).

This white GIGABYTE Z890 AORUS PRO ICE Motherboard supports up to 256 GB of DDR5 memory across four DIMM slots with dual-channel operation, and an extreme supported memory clock of up to 9500 MHz for demanding multitasking and content-creation workflows.

Storage flexibility is extensive: five M.2 slots plus SATA III support let you combine ultra-fast NVMe SSDs with traditional HDD storage, with RAID 0/1/5/10 options available for performance or redundancy. The board supports up to four storage drives and up to nine HDDs via available configurations.

Expansion and GPU support are well provisioned with two PCIe x16 Gen 4 slots and one PCIe x16 Gen 5 slot, enabling next-gen graphics cards and high-bandwidth add-in cards. On-board graphics are not included, so a discrete GPU is required for video output.

Connectivity covers modern desktop needs: 5 Gigabit Ethernet, dual Thunderbolt ports, Wi‑Fi 7 (Intel BE200) with Bluetooth 5.4, multiple USB ports including USB 3.2 Gen 2x2, HDMI and two DisplayPorts, and comprehensive audio with a Realtek ALC1220 chip delivering 7.1 channels.

Power and system management include dual 8-pin EPS connectors, a 24-pin ATX connector, TPM connector, 12V power header, RGB LED header, UEFI AMI BIOS (256 Mbit) with Clear CMOS button/jumper, and robust PC health monitoring for fans, temperature and voltage. Windows 11 x64 is supported and the board ships with a three-year warranty.

Use cases for the GIGABYTE Z890 AORUS PRO ICE include high-end gaming rigs that require PCIe Gen5 GPU support, content creators who need massive DDR5 bandwidth and multiple M.2 drives, and workstation builds that benefit from 5 GbE networking and Wi‑Fi 7 for fast transfers and low latency collaboration.
