Gigabyte Z690 UD AX DDR4 Overview

Whether you are creating or gaming, you can get the best of both worlds with the GIGABYTE Z690 UD AX DDR4 LGA 1700 ATX Motherboard. Leveraging the power of 12th Gen Intel processors, the UD AX offers robust connectivity options, flexible power design, and an enhanced cooling system suitable for prolonged gaming or creative sessions.

Based on the Intel Z690 chipset, you get access to an LGA 1700 socket which is compatible with a wide range of 12th Gen Intel processors. Four DDR4 slots can handle up to 128GB of DDR4 RAM, taking multitasking capabilities to the next level. Save your gaming library on an array of storage drives with six SATA III ports and three M.2 PCIe interfaces. Equip your system with an array of graphics and utility cards with one PCIe 5.0 x16 slot, two PCIe 3.0 x16 slots, and two PCIe 3.0 x1. You have a wide range of inputs at your disposal, allowing you to connect low-power devices such as mice and keyboards with USB 2.0 Type-A ports as well as support for resource-demanding peripherals like external drives and powered microphones with USB 3.2 Gen 1 and Gen 2 Type-A ports. A single USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C port offers support for audio interfaces, external HD cameras, and more. Use wireless peripherals with Bluetooth 5.2 capabilities, giving you untethered freedom for mice, keyboards, and more. With the 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port, you can obtain enhanced networking speeds, giving you the edge in fast-paced competitive online games or use integrated Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) technology for wireless connectivity.

Performance
Designed to manage proper electrical loads, the UD AX offers a hybrid digital VRM design featuring 16+1+2 phases that manage and balance power throughout the motherboard. Support for PCIe 5.0 devices allows you to leverage high-speed M.2 storage drives as well as powerful graphics and utility cards. DDR4 XMP support allows you to support a wide range of memory modules with speeds up to 5333 MHz. The UD AX also leverages the unique design of 12th Gen Intel processors with Hybrid Core Optimization which automatically adjusts CPU performance for gaming and obtaining maximum performance. You also obtain RAID storage capabilities across the three Gen 4 M.2 PCIe SSDs, allowing you to customize your storage parameters.
Thermal Enhancements
Sporting a unique thermal design, the UD AX uses a fully covered, single-piece crafted thermal heatsink to prevent buildup over the MOSFETs, providing up to two-times the coverage. M.2 Thermal Guards prevent heat from damaging your storage device, and Smart Fan 6 uses internal temperature sensors and fan headers to ensure your components are nice and cool. The PCB is enhanced with 2x copper layer design which dissipates heat from the components due to its high thermal conductivity and lower impedance.
Connectivity
The back panel of the UD AX includes an array of ports, offering wide flexibility for your devices. Low-power devices such as mice and keyboards are supported via USB 2.0 Type-A ports, while USB 3.2 Gen 1 and Gen 2 Type-A ports offer data transfer rates up to 5 and 10 Gb/s, respectively. You also get a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C port for data transfer speeds up to 20 Gb/s, suitable for power-hunger peripherals like audio and storage arrays. An internal front-panel USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C connector allows you to quickly send data to your PC without reaching towards the back. Get the edge in battle with the 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port, offering quick networking bandwidth suitable for high-speed competitive online gaming. Experience clear sound with Hi-Res Audio which offers immersive sound whether you are running through the battlefield or racing through the streets. Additionally, you get DisplayPort and HDMI ports, providing support for processors with integrated graphics.
Wireless Capabilities
The UD AX includes wireless support for your network as well as your peripherals. Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) technology offers enhanced data transmission speeds while reinforcing your wireless connection for lower lag.
Customized Performance
Adjust your system with UEFI BIOS and EASY TUNE, working together so you can fine-tune various parameters so you can optimize your performance. System Information Viewer allows you to monitor your computer's components, set your preferred fan speeds, and create alerts.
RGB Fusion 2.0
Turn your PC into the centerpiece of your room with support for RGB strips, allowing you to customize lighting and effects so you can show off your unique style.
Durable Design
Upgrade the BIOS with Q-Flash Plus, allowing you to perform upgrades without installing the CPU, memory, and graphics card, adding an extra layer of support. Solid pin power connectors offer stable power with a larger contact area and more metal quantity to sustain higher power and generated heat.
