GIGABYTE B760 Gaming X AX DDR5 Intel Motherboard

The Gigabyte B760 Gaming X AX DDR5 is an ATX-form-factor motherboard built around the Intel B760 Express Chipset and designed for Intel LGA1700 processors. It supports 12th-generation (Alder Lake) and 13th-generation (Raptor Lake) Intel Core, Pentium Gold, and Celeron processors, making it a versatile platform for mid-range gaming and productivity builds. Memory flexibility is a standout strength. The board features four DDR5 DIMM slots capable of supporting up to 128 GB of system memory. Out of the box, it runs DDR5 at 4000 or 4800 MT/s, and through XMP/overclocking profiles it can reach speeds of up to 7600 MT/s, covering a wide range of DDR5 kits from budget to enthusiast tiers. For graphics, the primary PCIe x16 slot operates at PCIe 4.0 bandwidth, ensuring modern discrete GPUs have full-speed connectivity. Two additional PCIe x16-keyed slots run at PCIe 3.0 x1 electrical bandwidth, providing space for additional expansion cards. Four SATA 6 Gb/s ports handle conventional storage drives, while integrated Intel HD Graphics support (via CPU) is exposed through a rear DisplayPort and an HDMI output, useful for builds using iGPU-equipped processors. Connectivity is strengthened by the integrated Wi-Fi (AX-class wireless, indicated by the “AX” designation) and a Realtek 2.5GbE wired LAN controller offering speeds of 2.5 Gbps, 1 Gbps, and 100 Mbps. Audio is handled by a Realtek audio codec paired with six rear-panel audio jacks, suitable for multi-channel speaker setups and headsets. The rear I/O panel also includes a DisplayPort output and one HDMI port for iGPU display connections. Gigabyte’s Ultra Durable construction reinforces slots and uses quality components throughout.
