Gigabyte X370 Gaming K3, AMD X370-Mainboard - Socket AM4 [GA-AX370-Gaming K3]

 The advanced AMD X370, B350 and A320 chipsets for the enthusiast, mainstream and base segment provide many modern I / O interfaces and connections for peripherals, while additional data lines are directly controlled by the CPU or APU.

AMD Logo AM4 motherboards also support fast and energy-efficient DDR4 memory in dual-channel mode, along with partial ECC support, via the processor's built-in memory controller. The highly developed "Zen" microarchitecture and the associated AM4 platform form the ideal basis for powerful systems in any application.
Features of the Gigabyte GA-AX370 Gaming K3 in ATX format

The Gigabyte GA-AX370 Gaming K3 is a motherboard in ATX format and has graphics cards with a fast PCI Express 3.0 slot with full x16 connection and an x16 slot that is connected to the chipset with four lanes. There are also three PCIe-x1 slots available for other expansion cards. As an X370 motherboard, the Gigabyte GA-AX370 Gaming K3 also supports AMD's Crossfire technology for multi-GPU setups.

Up to 64 GB of DDR4 memory take up the four RAM banks, with corresponding memory running at a maximum of 3,200 overclocked megahertz. The internal connection repertoire includes, among other things, two headers for USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 for 4 ports as well as Clear CMOS, COM port and TPM headers.

Such as SSDs and hard drives, the board manages over eight SATA 6G connectors (including RAID support) as well as an M.2 slot, which is connected with four PCI Express 3.0 lanes, thus delivering tremendously high speeds of up to 32 Gbit / s. M.2 SSDs of 42 to 110 mm in length can be used, as well as the advanced NVM Express protocol, which has been specifically optimized for highly parallelized data carrier accesses to modern PCIe SSDs.

The Gigabyte GA-AX370 Gaming K3 is also an integrated red LED light. Last but not least, five fans with a 4-pin PWM connector can be connected directly to the board. On the back of the mainboard, additional devices and components can be connected via USB 3.1 and -3.0, universal PS / 2 or five audio jacks and an S / PDIF output for 7.1 sound with the Gigabyte GA- AX370 Gaming K3. In addition, an HDMI monitor output is available for the image display via an integrated APU graphics unit (optional).

AMD Socket AM4 Compatibility Note:

Because AM4 (+), AM3 (+) or FM2 (+) predecessors AM4 (+), AM4 (+), AM4 (+) AMC connectors are compatible with compatible AM4 mount sets. CPU coolers attached directly to the motherboard's retention module are fully compatible.
