With a suite of helpful design elements and software enhancements, such as EZ Latch and Smart Fan 6, the AORUS PRO ICE is a fantastic choice for users seeking a motherboard that provides performance, connectivity and quality of life features in perfect balance.
True AI. Infinite Performance
Powered by an AI engine, memory and overall system performance can be boosted with improved multi-tasking and system responsiveness. Users can overclock like an expert in an instant, through a simple interface that brings you smart, safe overclocking that won’t put your components at risk. Your PC’s AI processing is also accelerated for increased performance with better power efficiency.
Digital Twin VRM Design
The AORUS PRO ICE uses a 16+1+2 Digital Twin Power Design which delivers consistent power to maintain system stability when overclocking your CPU. With 90A SPS modules, these fully digital controllers offer precision and reliability for the most important and energy-sensitive component in your PC, allowing enthusiasts to get the absolute maximum performance from Intel Core Ultra processors.
Thermal Armor Fin Array
Gigabyte have designed their VRM cooling solution to provide up to four times more surface area than traditional coolers, with a one-piece moulded heatsink design. Featuring more grooves and fins, it has an increased number of channels for air to flow over the heatsink, drawing heat away from capacitors and chokes. A dedicated heatpipe assists with efficient heat transfer and a 7W/mK themal pad increases thermal conductivity. The AORUS PRO ICE also features active memory cooling with Gigabyte’s DDR Wind Blade fan.
M.2 Thermal Guards
A dedicated heatsink with a small array of fins is provided for the main, PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot, whilst the other M.2 slots are covered by a wider, one-piece heatsink. These help to prevent bottlenecking during intense workloads and large transfers, where your NVMe storage can throttle due to high temperatures from sustained, full-load usage.
The Zenith of Memory
AORUS gaming motherboards can boost DDR5 memory performance up to 9500MT/s, whilst offering top-notch compatibility. Advanced BIOS functionality provides optimisation with Intel XMP, custom SPD profiles and other management features, making it easier to get the most out of your memory. AORUS motherboards bring unmatched hardware excellence using shielded, daisy-chain memory routing in an eight-layer PCB made with server-grade materials.
Extensive USB Connections
The Z890 AORUS PRO ICE offers a versatile range of USB connections, including two USB4 Type-C back panel ports with DisplayPort and fast-charging support, with a huge mix of 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports and 3.2 Gen1 ports and headers that each facilitate fast transfers between drives, as well as connecting gaming accessories and office peripherals. Up to eight USB 2.0 ports ensure compatibility with older hardware and low-power gadgets.
5 GbE LAN
The 5G LAN port provides up to 5 Gigabit Ethernet, opening the door to a whole new world of ultra-fast, lag-free gaming. This port is for gamers seeking the ultimate online gaming experience, who need the very best network support backed by premium components.
Wi-Fi 7
The AORUS PRO ICE offers faster speeds, lower latency, and improved efficiency over Wi-Fi 6 with its built-in networking. It supports Multi-Link Operation (MLO) and 4K-QAM, which combine multiple frequency bands into a single connection, and pack more data into each transmission. When combined, these features reduce congestion and boost bandwidth, for smoother gaming, faster downloads, and more stable streaming, all whilst maintaining strong connection in dense, crowded environments.
RGB FUSION
With more customisation than ever before, RGB Fusion allows you to adapt interior lighting to match the theme of your PC. With full RGB support and a redesigned application, you can have complete control over the overall look of your PC by controlling each LED surrounding your motherboard.
