GIGABYTE has just announced its new Z390 Designare motherboard with the new Z390 Designare motherboard brimming with features and connectivity including Thunderbolt 3 and USB 3.1 Gen 2 for 40Gbps of bandwidth.

The new GIGABYTE Z390 Designare motherboard is not just a gorgeous motherboard, but it is packed to the rafters with some of the best features you will find on any Z390 motherboard on the market. We have support for Intel's latest and greatest Core i9-9900K processor, built-in USB Type-C and Thunderbolt 3 as well as USB 3.1 Gen 2 for up to 40Gbps of bandwidth.
GIGABYTE has used 12+1 phase digital CPU power with a digital PWM controller and DrMOS, with 8+4 pin power connectors providing the power necessary to run the Z390 Designare motherboard and it loaded up with a 9900K and NVMe-based SSDs. GIGABYTE has used a high-efficacy VRM heat sink for maximum heat dissipation, with the heat sink designed to increase surface area with a Direct-Touch heat pipe. The thicker material reduces heat generated by the on-board DrMOS module, too.

Storage is where GIGABYTE has put some additional love into the Z390 Designare, as the company has put out the first-ever direct CPU attached AIC SSDs of NVMe storage for people who want crazy fast storage but a more mainstream chipset and CPU.

The GIGABYTE Z390 Designare is capable of RAID speeds of a huge 3551MB/sec directly attached to the CPU side, removing the bottleneck between the CPU and chipset. This is a huge deal for power users.
