    At first, I was skeptical due to the lack of reviews and a big price tag. But I wasn't disappointed! I used this mobo in my first ever personal build, after building about 10-12 other PCs to sell or for other people. I built a Win10/macOS 10.14.5 Hackintosh, following a guide on Tonymacx86 using this exact board. Trying to keep most of the components the same and wanting to provide a solid foundation for my CPU and GPU, I went with this.Pros:-Helps keep my i9-9900k cool-Lots of I/O ports and USBs-A good number of fan headers, only needed one y-splitter to make my cooler a push & pull (because why not)-Two M.2 drives with gorgeous covers-Onboard Wi-Fi (even though I use another card for AirDrop, BT, and WiFi for MacOS)-Very visually appealing, awesome silver/black/blue tri-tone color scheme.-Little-to-no GPU sag with Vega 56 PulseCons:I can't really think of a reasonable con for this board, but if I had to pick one: the Wi-Fi M.2 card on the board is an ugly green card with a big white QR code sticker, which annoyingly interrupts the whole color scheme. It would've been smart for Gigabyte to at least put a black sticker over it, but then again I can too. It's really no big deal, as it can be fixed with a sharpie, tape, sticker, etc.Conclusion:I'll admit, a few months ago I was drooling over mainstream brands. (like MSI and ASUS, which are undoubtedly great brands) But Gigabyte produces some high-quality products and this motherboard has officially won me over as an advocate... This isn't cheap silicon junk that heats up like a microwave. It's high quality, suited for whatever workload you through at it. If Gigabyte makes the rest of their products like this motherboard, then you won't be disappointed with anything you buy from them. I'm already looking at their 2080 Super GPU...Build: i9-9900K, Vega 56 8GB Pulse, Z390 Designare, G.Skill 3000 MHz 32GB, 250GB 970 Evo Plus & 1TB 860 Evo​

    Pretty good board with lots of options on the I/O. Build was a breeze as well as bios update for CPU. Gigabyte App center software is trash. Gigabyte Monitoring software worked for about a month. And now fails to open. Luckily NZXT's cam software runs smooth. Gigabyte Tech support says wipe OS and do a fresh install for their software to work again. Not worth the trouble reinstalling all programs,Codecs and Reg Keys to change board RGB color. (stuck on blue). All in all.. Hardware is great/Software is shit.

    Reviewed in Japan on July 3, 2019
    何よりもパッケージからマザーボード本体の付属品に至るまで、そのデザインがカッコイイ。

    初めてCore i9-9900Kを導入するにあたり、マザーボードをいろいろ見ていましたが、そんな時見つけたこの製品に一目惚れしました。機能性とデザイン性を両立するVRM周りに、M.2のシンプルでスタイリッシュなヒートシンク。マザーボード自体のライティングもスマートで控えめ、他のパーツの邪魔をしません。純粋にゲーミング用途やRGBライティング(いわゆる魅せるPC)に力を入れるのであれば、同社製のZ390 AORUS MASTERをおすすめします。ほぼ同価格の2製品のVRM周りはパッと見似ていますが、MASTERのはOC向けで仕組みが大きく異なります。また、MASTERのM.2スロットとヒートシンクはx3で余裕があり(とはいえSATAポートやM.2スロット同士の競合があるので要注意)、オーディオもより上位品で、(大事な人には本当に大事な)Addressable RGB Headerも付いています。

    本製品は第9世代Intel CPUの安定した運用を視野に入れつつも、ビデオカードの機能拡張や外部機器との接続に特化した、(プロアマ問わず)クリエイター向けのハイエンドマザーボードだと思います。クリエイティブな日々を過ごし、4K以上のモニターや液晶タブレットなどを積極的に活用できる方に向いています(因みに僕はどちらも持ち腐らせているので向いていません)。特定の機能に特化しているため汎用性に欠ける部分があり、その「特定の機能」に対して必要性を感じられなければ無意味な投資となります。コストパフォーマンスや将来性、必要性が気になるという方は、ぜひメーカーサイトで詳細な情報を確認の上で購入することをおすすめ致します。
