Overview
The GIGABYTE Z890 Aorus Elite WiFi 7 Plus is a full-size ATX motherboard built around Intel's Z890 chipset and the LGA1851 socket, designed to support Intel Core Ultra processors (Series 2). It pairs a capable VRM design with modern connectivity standards, making it a solid platform for enthusiast desktop builds that demand both performance headroom and future-ready I/O. At the heart of its power delivery sits a digital twin 16+1+2 phase VRM solution, backed by VRM Thermal Armor Advanced for effective heat dissipation during sustained workloads. The board's AI PerfDrive feature provides an optimised BIOS preset profile, helping users extract stable performance without manual tuning expertise. Memory support is handled by four DDR5 DIMM slots arranged in dual-channel configuration, accepting capacities up to 256 GB. The board supports DDR5 speeds up to 9466 MHz via Intel XMP, as well as CUDIMM (Clocked Unbuffered DIMM) modules for expanded flexibility. Storage and expansion are well covered. The primary PCIe x16 slot runs PCIe 5.0 at full x16 bandwidth for discrete graphics or compatible NVMe SSDs. Two additional PCIe x16 physical slots from the chipset operate at PCIe 4.0 x4 speeds. Four M.2 Socket 3 connectors and four SATA 6Gb/s ports accommodate a wide range of storage configurations, with EZ-Latch Plus and EZ-Latch Click mechanisms enabling tool-free drive and heatsink installation. Networking is headline-spec: onboard Wi-Fi 7 (2T2R antenna, with WIFI EZ-Plug for easy antenna fitting) and Bluetooth 5.4 handle wireless, while a 5GbE RJ-45 port serves wired connections. The rear I/O panel includes a USB4 Type-C port with DisplayPort Alt Mode, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, three USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports, four USB 2.0/1.1 ports, a dedicated DisplayPort output, optical S/PDIF out, and two audio jacks. Audio quality is supported by a Realtek ALC1220 codec paired with WIMA audiophile-grade capacitors. Internal headers include a USB Type-C header with USB 3.2 Gen 2, a USB 3.2 Gen 1 header, two USB 2.0 headers, three addressable Gen 2 RGB headers, one standard RGB header, and two Thunderbolt add-in card connectors (compatible with GIGABYTE Thunderbolt 5 add-in cards only).
