Durable Performance

GIGABYTE Ultra Durable™ motherboards built with optimal components inside out provide the prime performance and timeless platform.

Digital VRM Design

5+2+1 Phases Digital VRM Solution with high performance DrMOS

GIGABYTE UD series motherboards use a 5+2+1 phases digital PWM + high performance DrMOS design to support AMD’s new generation CPUs by offering incredible precision in delivering power to the motherboard’s most power-hungry and energy-sensitive components as well as delivering enhanced system performance and ultimate hardware scalability.

GIGABYTE is offering a tested and proven platform that the memory overclocking capability is able up to 6400 and beyond. All users need to do for achieving this extreme memory performance boost is to ensure that their DDR5 memory modules are AMD EXPO™/ Intel® XMP capable, the EXPO/XMP function is activated and enabled on their GIGABYTE motherboard.

Secure Mode

MB provides fixed 5V to Native DDR5 memory and built-in PMIC outputs locked 1.1v to memory IC.

• GIGABYTE exclusive circuit design unlocks Native DDR5 voltage control
• Transforms Native DDR5 memory module to Overclocked DDR5 memory
• Increases DDR5 memory overclocking performance and capability
• Supports all PMIC vendors for maximum compatibility

Programmable Mode

GIGABYTE’s exclusive design unlocks Native DDR5 PMIC secure mode into programmable mode and control Native DDR5 voltage with wide range.

EXPO & XMP Support

Shielded Memory Routing

Note: The picture is for reference and may vary by mode.

All memory routing is under the PCB inner layer shielded by a large ground layer to protect from external interference.

GIGABYTE AM5 MB supports both AMD EXPO™ and Intel® XMP overclocking memory modules for maximal compatibility. MB will automatically detect both profiles format in SPD, users can choose to enable one of profiles from BIOS menu and easily reach overclocked memory performance.

Future Connectivity

The ultimate connectivity with blazing data-transfer speeds through the next generation network and storage.

802.11ax Wi-Fi 6E

The latest Wireless solution 802.11ax Wi-Fi 6E with new dedicated 6GHz band, enables gigabit wireless performance, provides smooth video streaming, better gaming experience, few dropped connections and speeds up to 2.4Gbps. Moreover, Bluetooth 5 provides 4X range over BT 4.2 and with faster transmission.

2.5GbE LAN

First adopter on 2.5GbE LAN onboard

2X Faster than ever
-Adoption of 2.5G LAN provide up to 2.5 GbE network connectivity, with at least 2 times faster transfer speeds compared to general 1GbE networking, perfectly designed for gamers with ultimate online gaming experience.
-Support Multi-Gig(10/100/1000/2500Mbps) RJ-45 Ethernet

PCIe 4.0 Hardware Design

GIGABYTE A620 Motherboards are ready to work with the PCIe 4.0 devices which are expected to experience twice bandwidth than the current PCIe 3.0 devices. To reach the high speed and maintain good signal integrity, GIGABYTE R&D uses the low impedance PCB to provide the maximum performance.

High-End Audio Capacitors

GIGABYTE motherboards use high-end audio capacitors. These high quality capacitors help deliver high resolution and high fidelity audio to provide the most realistic sound effects for gamers.

Audio Noise Guard

GIGABYTE motherboards feature an audio noise guard that essentially separates the board’s sensitive analog audio components from potential noise pollution at the PCB level.

Easy Friendly

Innovative and intuitive hardware, software, and BIOS interface design to create your personal style.

Q-Flash Plus

Update the BIOS easily without installing the CPU, memory and graphics card. With GIGABYTE Q-Flash Plus, you don’t need to install the CPU, memory and graphics card nor enter the BIOS menu to flash the BIOS. Just download and save a new BIOS file (rename to gigabyte.bin) on the USB flash drive, then press the dedicated Q-Flash Plus button and you’re good to go!

• STEP 1: Plug 24pin & 8pin power supply cable on motherboard
• STEP 2: Download motherboard BIOS file and rename to “”gigabyte.bin””, save to USB flashdrive, and plug USB flashdrive into Q-Flash USB port
• STEP 3: Press Q-Flash Plus button, and motherboard will start updating BIOS automatically.

Smart Fan 6

Smart Fan 6 contains several unique cooling features that ensure gaming PC maintain its performance while staying cool and quiet. Multiple fan headers can support PWM/DC fan and pump, and users can easily define each fan curve based on different temperature sensors across the board via intuitive user interface.

Cooling Features

• High Current Support: Each fan headers support PWM and DC fan and Water Cooling Pump , and up to 24W (12V x 2A) with Over-Current Protection
• Precision Control: Multiple temperature/fan speed control points for precise fan curve
• Dual Curve Mode: Slope/Stair dual mode for different user scenario
• Fan Stop: Fan can stop completely below users’ specified temperature point

Smart Fan 6 BIOS UI

1. Improve fan curve UI: We increase control points from 5 to 7 and larger fan speed graph for precise and easier fan curve control.
2. Slope/Stair dual graph mode: Fan curve can be quickly switch with Slope and Stair modes for different user scenario. Slope is traditional and intuitive linear fan speed curve. With newly added Stair non-linear mode, fan keeps at same speed between specified temperature interval.
3. Manual Input: For advanced users, we provide fan speed manual input for more precise control.
4. EZ Tuning: Use can place 4 EZ Tuning points at rough temperature/fan speed, and Smart Fan 6 can quickly generate a fan curve.
5. Fan curve profile: Fan curve profile can be saved in BIOS ROM, profile will be kept after updating BIOS.
