GIGABYTE Z790 Eagle AX LGA 1700 Intel Z790 ATX moederbord met DDR5, M.2, PCIe 5.0, USB 3.2 Gen2X2 Type-C, Intel Wi-Fi 6E, 2.5GbE LAN, Q-Flash Plus, EZ-Latch

Hello, Im Michael, and Im reviewing the Gigabyte Z790 Eagle AX.First and foremost. Im a brand loyalist and have never built a computer until recently.Im going to be using MOBO which stands for Motherboard from here on out.I was accustomed to using an Alienware 15R2 for almost 10 years. Thats a laptop. Which I worked and worked on squeezing as much as I could out of it. It is an amazing laptop from 2015 thats amazing for mobile use, but for 2024 gaming use, it just didnt cut it anymore.I upgraded my cousins old EVGA 2080 GPU to a GIGABYTE 4070 ti super first. Because I thought his old EVGA board and PSU was being GPU throttled. Instead of upgrading the board, cpu, thermal paste, cpu cooler, psu, and the case. I put in the GIGABYTE 4070 TI Super before anything else to make sure. The GIGABYTE gpu performed excellent in his build. But, unfortunately his CPU couldnt keep up with the demand. Causing alot of stuttering issues. The GIGABYTE 4070 TI Super performed beautifully. Dont get me wrong. This was a CPU issue. Not a Gigabyte issue.So. I did my own research. I did my own data testing and analysis to find the best mid range board. I was shocked that EVGA doesnt make GPU's or MOBO's anymore. Such good quality stuff. Why did they stop? I dont have that answer for you.If EVGA made motherboards and GPU's I wouldnt be wasting my time with this review.Anyways. The GIGABYTE Z790 Eagle AX is exactly what I bought. DDR5. LGA 1700 Socket, NVME Gen4, Built in Wifi 6, and bluetooth.I chose GIGABYTE because the GIGABYTE EAGLE WINDFORCE 4070 TI Super "whatever," performed with no issues whatsover.This board. Is not perfect when it comes to OC/BIOS configs. I have tested and pushed the limits. And it has forgiven me everytime. That is something new. The evga MBO when I have OC or overclocked the memory or the cpu it has completely died. And I had to reset everything. This BIOS is completely forgiving for new PC builders.My current build is the 4000D Corsair Case with 2 included fans. Corsair 650x 650w PSU, GIGABYTE Z790 Eagle AX MOBO, Intel i7 14700K CPU, Thermalright Peerless Assassin CPU cooler, Crucial 64gb DDR5 RAM, Crucial P3 1TB NVME, Samsung 950 500GB NVME, Samsung 850 500GB SSD, and a Seagate 2TB HDD.This board supports everything. I called my PC "Frankenstein" because its built with parts from other computers. Thats what someone who knows what their doing does. NVME. SATA SSD, SATA HDD. It still supports older hardware.And it does it without flaw with an undervolt and an OC on the CPU.One thing I will tell you. DO NOT TRUST THE GIGABYTE SOFTWARE. IT WILL NOT UPDATE YOUR BIOS. IT WILL NOT INSTALL EVERYTHING FROM THE GIGABYTE SITE THAT YOU NEED.With that being said. I built my cousin a brand new computer.Same Corsair 4000D case, Same GIGABYTE Z790 Eagle Ax MOBO, Same Intel 14700K CPU, Same Thermalright Peerless Assassin, Same Crucial 64GB DDR5.Upgraded to a Corsair RM1000x, in case he wants to install an 6090, Upgraded the NVME to a Crucial T500. And of course. Put his old 4070 TI Super in his new computer.The results speak for themselves. He said "He didnt know that computers were this good."

My motherboard was defective right out of the box, but it took too long for me to collect the rest of the parts for my build and I didn’t discover the defect until after the return window had expired so now my only option is to deal with gigabyte directly. Their customer service is useless, and will not replace the motherboard with a new one so I will be stuck with a refurbished board for the price of a new one . I feel abandoned by the 30 day return policy and for parts like these it needs to be longer.

ممتازه مره شغاله زي الحلاوه

I was really impressed with the GIGABYTE Z790 Eagle AX. Setup was smooth, and it runs fast with DDR5 support. Great connectivity and plenty of features for the price. Perfect for my gaming build. I definitely recommend it if you're upgrading!
