Gigabyte Z690 UD ATX Motherboard, Intel Z690, DDR4 (Z690UDDDR41.1)

UNPARALLELED PERFORMANCE
With technology moving so fast, GIGABYTE still keeps up with the latest trends and provides our customers with advanced features and the latest technology. GIGABYTE Z690 Series motherboards come with an upgraded power solution, the latest storage standards, and outstanding connectivity to optimize performance for gaming.

Hybrid VRM Design
To ensure maximum Turbo Boost and overclocking performance of Intel's new generation CPU, GIGABYTE Z690 series is equipped with the best VRM design ever built with the highest quality components.

PCIe 5.0 Design
GIGABYTE Z690 Motherboards are ready to work with upcoming PCIe 5.0 devices, which are expected to have double the bandwidth of current PCIe 4.0 devices. To achieve high speed and maintain good signal integrity, GIGABYTE R&D uses low impedance PCB to provide maximum performance.

DDR4 XMP
GIGABYTE offers a tested and proven platform that ensures proper compatibility with profiles up to 5333MHz and beyond. All users need to do to attain this performance boost is to ensure that their memory module is XMP capable and that the XMP function is activated and enabled on their GIGABYTE motherboard.

3X PCIe 4.0 M.2 Slots
Triple PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 Connectors with Thermal Guard

Hybrid Cores Optimization
With new Intel Hybrid technology, GIGABYTE exclusively creates two new "CPU Upgrade" BIOS profiles to meet different users' scenarios by adjusting P-Core and E-Core activation and voltage policy.

ADVANCED THERMAL SOLUTION
Z690 UD DDR4 uses a high-performance covered thermal design with high coverage MOSFET Heatsinks and a thick thermal pad, providing ultimate MOSFET cooling performance for enthusiasts, overclockers, and gamers.

Covered MOSFET Heatsink
2X Large Surface
Increased surface area up to 2X larger compared to traditional heatsinks. It improves heat dissipation from the MOSFETs.

Real One-piece Build
TMOS is a TRUE single-piece heatsink. Its one-piece design and larger surface drastically improve the cooling performance compared to competitors' multi-piece design.

Multi-Cut Design
TMOS features several channels and inlets on the heatsink. This design allows for the airflow to go through, leading to a great improvement in heat transfer performance.

M.2 Thermal Guard
GIGABYTE Ultra-Efficient M.2 Thermal Guard
With durability in mind, GIGABYTE provides a thermal solution for M.2 SSD devices. The M.2 Thermal Guard prevents throttling and bottlenecks from high-speed M.2 SSDs as it helps dissipate heat before it becomes an issue.

2X Copper PCB
By adopting 2X copper on the PCB inner layer, it lowers the components' temperature by at least 3% by turning the PCB into a super-thin PCB-sized copper heatsink to effectively dissipate heat from the components, due to its high thermal conductivity and lower impedance.

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

NEXT GENERATION CONNECTIVITY
GIGABYTE Z690 Series Motherboards let you experience ultimate connection flexibility and blazing data transfer speed with next-generation network and storage connectivity.

First adopter on 2.5 GbE LAN onboard
Adoption of 2.5G LAN provides up to 2.5 GbE network connectivity, with at least 2 times faster transfer speeds compared to general 1 GbE networking, perfectly designed for gamers with the ultimate online gaming experience.

Connecting the Future - USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C®
Featuring the USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 design, which doubles the performance compared to the previous generation of USB 3.2 Gen 2. It works up to 20Gbps ultra-fast data transfer while connecting to USB 3.2 compliant peripherals. Through the USB Type-C® connector, users can enjoy the flexibility of reversible connection to access and store massive amounts of data rapidly.

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.

Refreshed BIOS
The BIOS is essential for users during the initial setup to allow for the most optimal settings. With a new GUI and easier-to-use functionalities, GIGABYTE has been able to reinvent the BIOS to give users a better experience while setting up their new system. Photos are for reference only. Product features may vary by model.

RGB FUSION
With an integrated intuitive user interface, RGB Fusion 2.0 provides you with a better solution for customizing the lighting effects across all supported devices. From motherboards, graphics cards to peripheral products, you can personalize your gaming rig with your own style and show off your build by sharing the profiles. In addition, the new gaming mode makes the lighting effects interactive with selected games to bring you the most immersive gaming experience.

EASY TUNE
GIGABYTE's EasyTune™ is a simple and easy-to-use interface that allows users to fine-tune their system settings or adjust system and memory clocks and voltages in a Windows environment. With Smart Quick Boost, one click is all it takes to automatically overclock your system, giving an added performance boost when you need it the most.

System Information Viewer
GIGABYTE System Information Viewer is a central location that gives you access to your current system status. Monitor components such as clocks and processors, set your preferred fan speed profile, create alerts when temperatures get too high, or record your system's behavior; these are the possibilities of the System Information Viewer.
