Gigabyte Z270X Gaming 9 Preview

Up Close cont

The Aorus Gaming 9 has a built in watercooling block so you can keep your power phases cool under even the most extreme loading scenarios without having to resort to purchasing an additional block and possibly voiding your warranty fitting it. As befits the top of the Gigabyte range there are loads of fan headers and plenty of RGBW strip headers too. If you haven’t been keeping up with that then the RGBW has a dedicated pin for the white hue, allowing you to get clear crisp whites without them ending up slightly blue as you get with mere RGB strip headers. Think of it like the Persil of lighting. Great with coloureds but good with whites too. The amount of connection options on the Gaming 9 is positively staggering, and even the most storage drive and fan heavy user will struggle to fill everything up.
