Smart Fan 5With Smart Fan 5 users can ensure that their gaming PC can maintain its performance while staying cool‎.‎ Smart Fan 5 allows users to interchange their fan headers to reflect different thermal sensors at different locations on the motherboard‎.‎ Not only that‎,‎ with Smart Fan 5 more hybrid fan headers that support both PWM and Voltage mode fans have been introduced to make the motherboard more liquid cooling friendly‎.‎• 2 Fan pin headers‎.‎• 4 Temperature Sensors‎.‎• All Fan Pin Headers Upgraded to Hybrid Fan Headers‎.‎• Supports High Current Fans up to 24W ‎(‎2Ax12V‎)‎ with Over‎-Current Protection‎.‎• Intuitive UI for Fan Control‎.‎All Hybrid Fan Pin Headers• All Hybrid Fan Headers can automatically detect the type of cooling device whether it be fan or pump with different PWM or Voltage mode‎.‎• Supports up to 2 amps with built‎-in overcurrent protection—a must for high‎-end high current fans‎.‎Supports‎:‎• Closed Loop Watercooling‎.‎• CPU Fan‎.‎• System Fan‎.‎• Watercooling Pump‎.‎New Smart Fan 5 SoftwareChoose from different modes‎,‎ Quiet to Full Speed‎,‎ to match your system usage scenario‎.‎ For each fan or pump‎,‎ you can use the intuitive fan curve to define trigger thresholds and corresponding fan speeds‎.‎Interoperable Sensors and FansEach fan can be customized to operate at different speeds according to any defined temperature source input ‎(‎except the CPU fan‎)‎‎.‎Fan CurveCustomize fan curves based on specific temperatures with the intuitive graphical UI‎.‎Enhanced BIOS InterfaceThe enhanced BIOS interface also has the advanced features seen in the Smart Fan 5 UI‎,‎ such as‎:‎ the ability to set triggers based on different temperature sensors on the board‎,‎ fan curve definition and the temperature interval setting‎,‎ which can prevent fan rotation noise caused by sudden temperature change—all without having to load Windows‎.‎Immersive VR Gaming Experience• VR requires more performance than Full HD graphics for a steady 90FPS or greater‎.‎ • Only Gaming PCs can provide the best VR experience‎.‎Realtek GbE LAN with cFosSpeed Internet Accelerator NetworkingRealtek Gbe LAN features cFosSpeed‎,‎ a network traffic management application which helps to improve network latency and maintain low ping times to deliver better responsiveness in crowded LAN environments‎.‎Anti‎-Sulfur Resistor DesignSulfur compounds in the air can penetrate tiny onboard resistors creating chemical change and causing these resistors to open or short‎.‎ If either of these occurs the motherboard will fail to function‎.‎ By equipping resistors with an Anti‎-Sulfur Design GIGABYTE gives Ultra Durable Motherboards a whole new meaning‎.‎High Quality Onboard Audio DesignDelivers high quality sound resolution and sound expansion to create the most realistic sound effects for professional gamers‎.‎• Audio Noise Guard with LED Trace Path Lighting‎.‎• High‎-End Audio Components‎.‎Humidity Protection Glass Fabric PCBThere is nothing more harmful to the longevity of your PC than moisture‎,‎ and most parts of the world experience moisture in the air as humidity at some point during the year‎.‎ GIGABYTE motherboards have been designed to make sure that humidity is never an issue‎,‎ incorporating a new Glass Fabric PCB technology that repels moisture caused by humid and damp conditions‎.‎ Glass Fabric PCB technology uses a new PCB material which reduces the amount of space between the fibre weave‎,‎ making it much more difficult for moisture to penetrate compared to traditional motherboard PCBs‎.‎ This offers much better protection from short circuit and system malfunction caused by humid and damp conditions‎.‎High Temperature Protection Lower RDS‎(‎on‎)‎ MOSFETs DesignGIGABYTE motherboards use Low RDS‎(‎on‎)‎ MOSFETs which reduce energy wastage through unnecessary residual heat dissipation‎.‎ This all amounts to tangible energy savings which are beneficial for both end‎-users and the environment without impacting system performance‎.‎Refreshed BIOS Easy‎,‎ Smart‎,‎ and FriendlyThe BIOS is essential for users during 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.‎GIGABYTE APP CenterThe GIGABYTE APP Center gives you easy access to a wealth of GIGABYTE apps that help you get the most from your GIGABYTE motherboard‎.‎ Using a simple‎,‎ unified user interface‎,‎ GIGABYTE APP Center allows you to easily launch all GIGABYTE apps installed on your system‎,‎ check related updates online‎,‎ and download the latest apps‎,‎ drivers‎,‎ and BIOS‎.‎System Information ViewerGIGABYTE System Information Viewer is a central location that gives you access to your current system status‎.‎ Monitor components such as the clocks and processor‎,‎ set your preferred fan speed profile‎,‎ create alerts when temperatures get too high or record your system’s behaviour‎;‎ these are the possibilities of the System Information Viewer‎.‎ @BIOSThe GIGABYTE @BIOS app allows you to update your system’s BIOS from within Windows using a simple and slick graphical user interface‎.‎ @BIOS can automatically download the latest version from the GIGABYTE servers or you can update your BIOS from a file on your computer‎.‎ @BIOS also allows you to save your current BIOS to a file‎,‎ recover your previous BIOS from an image and backup your BIOS to an image‎.‎ 3D OSD3D OSD automatically detects and displays your system information during games‎,‎ allowing you to easily get a hold of your system information without switching between screens‎.‎ XSplit Gamecaster + Broadcaster‎:‎ Cast Your Game Anytime‎,‎ AnywhereNow set up your
