Based on the Intel Z690 Express chipset, the Gigabyte Z690 AORUS MAS TER motherboard will serve as the foundation for your high-performance processor-based gaming PC with Gigabyte-exclusive features like Smart Fan 6. It supports 12th generation Intel Core processors, PCI-Express 5.0 16x graphics cards, SATA 6 Gbps and M.2 PCIe 4.0 drives, DDR5 RAM as well as USB 3.1 and 3.2 devices.
The 12th generation Intel Core processors are a small revolution in the world of x86 architectures, as they are the first to integrate a hybrid architecture. This process consists of combining two different types of cores on the same chip. The first 1, called Percormance-Cores, are dedicated to performance in games and mono-threaded applications requiring resources. The second type, called Efficient-Cores, are particularly efficient for multitasking and side task processing. Together, the two provide spectacular performance and incredible responsiveness for your system.
