Experience high-octane overclocking with the Z590 AORUS TACHYON LGA 1200 E-ATX Motherboard from GIGABYTE. Whether you are looking to test the capabilities of your parts or enjoy PC games with unrelenting performance, the AORUS TACHYON gives you the capabilities to take your build to the next level.

Built upon the Intel Z590 chipset, you have access to an LGA 1200 socket designed to take advantage of 10th and 11th Gen Intel Core processors. Two DDR4 RAM slots allow you to install up to 64GB of memory for enhanced multi-tasking. Build an array of storage devices with six SATA III and two M.2 ports. A total of four PCIe x16 slots offer various configurations for graphics and utility cards, consisting of two 4.0 and two 3.0 protocols. Connect to your wireless network with Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) capabilities or use the 2.5 GbE LAN port if you prefer a hard-wired connection. A suite of USB 3.2 Gen 2 and Gen 1 Type-A Ports give you the ability to connect resource-demanding peripherals, with a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C port giving you even greater expansion for your external devices. Bluetooth 5.2 technology enables you to use wireless peripherals for a true cable-free experience.

VRM Design

Digital PWM Controller works with the Direct 12 Phases VRM design, 100A DrMOS, and Tantalum Polymer Capacitor Matrix to provide enhanced electrical stability essential for running high-powered overclocked setups while maintaining lower temperatures and better transient response across the motherboard. Dual CPU power connectors are built with metal shielding to provide maximal current input to the processor, ensuring your system maintains the proper electrical operation while running.

Shielded Memory Routing

A specialized shielded ground layer located within the printed circuit board protects digital signals from interference when running information from the CPU to the RAM slots, and vice versa. This provides you with dedicated channels that work directly with your CPU to provide enhanced operations suitable for your needs. Daisy-chain memory trace layout achieves the shortest memory distance between the CPU and RAM DIMM to give you the highest clock speeds at the lowest latency.

PCIe 4.0 Performance

Achieve enhanced speeds up to 64 Gb/s with PCIe 4.0 capabilities. Attributed to two PCIe x16 slots and M.2 storage slots, you can experience intense graphic fidelity for your GPU and faster loading times for your NVMe solid-state storage device, suitable for high-performance gaming. Additionally, you can install Thunderbolt cards via internal headers for enhanced peripheral use.

2.5 Gigabit Ethernet

With 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, you can achieve high-speed performance suited for competitive gamers and streamers, giving you a smooth online experience.

Wi-Fi 6E Connection

Experience smooth streaming video and intense competitive gaming with Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) technology. A dedicated 6 GHz wireless band ensures fewer dropped connections, speeds up to 2.4 Gb/s, and a higher network capacity. The AORUS antennas actively search for the best Wi-Fi signal strength, optimizing your network performance.

USB 3.2 Gen 2x2

A single USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C port located on the back panel of the AORUS TACHYON gives you up to 20 Gb/s data transfer speeds, suitable for resource-demanding peripherals such as hubs, external audio/video sources, and more.

Overclocking

Sporting an E-ATX form factor provides you with a slew of additional overclocking buttons and switches that allow you to fine-tune every bit of your experience right on your motherboard. Power and reset buttons give you basic power functionality. LIMP Mode allows you to automatically reboot into default or safe settings without needing to clear CMOS, although a separate CMOS button also allows you to easily clear it. Cold Reset button allows you to force reset your system in case of a CPU or memory crash. Swap profiles with the Profile Switch. Adjust CPU parameters with the CPU Ratio Switch, OC Trigger Switch, Enhanced LN2 Mode, and LN2 Mode Switch. BIOS Switch and SB Switch grant you BIOS management with dual profile settings. Reserved switch is reserved for hardware expansion, and a Voltage Measurement enables you to manage power values.
