Gigabyte’s Z690 AORUS Master Motherboard Leaks – DDR5 and PCIe 5.0 On Show
Thanks to REHWK, @hw-reveal on Twitter, a marketing image of Gigabyte’s Z690 AORUS Master motherboard has leaked, a motherboard design that features PCIe 5.0 connectivity and DDR5 memory support.
Gigabyte’s Aorus Master series sit amongst the company’s highest-end motherboard designs. As such, this motherboard will be one of the best Alder Lake motherboards that Gigabyte has to offer. This board features dual 8-pin EPC/CPU power connectors, a reinforced PCIe 5.0 slot and space for what appears to be at least three M.2 slots.
The Z690 AORUS Master is an EATX motherboard design that features a tonne of connectivity options, appearing to support onboard WIFI, two additional PCIe x16 slots (alongside a single reinforced PCIe 5.0 x16 slot), six SATA ports, and a huge number of available USB ports. Sadly, the rear I/O of this motherboard is not clearly visible, but if the Z590 Aorus Master is anything to go by, the Z690 Aorus Master will support WIFI 6E, and 10Gb Ethernet. Thunderbolt 4 support is also a likely add-on for this motherboard.
With Intel’s Alder Lake CPU launch being less than a month away, it is likely that we will see more Z690 motherboard leaks in the near future.
