- Does this board support 10th or 11th gen Intel CPUs?
- No. It uses socket LGA 2066 for Core X-series processors. Mainstream LGA 1200 and LGA 1700 chips do not fit.
- How much memory can it take?
- Eight DDR4 DIMM slots allow very large capacities, well beyond typical four-slot boards. Check Gigabyte's qualified memory list for high-capacity kits.
- How many M.2 drives can I install?
- Three M.2 slots, supporting 2280, 2260 and 22110 lengths. Some slots share bandwidth with SATA ports, so check the manual before filling all of them.
- Is it good for a gaming build?
- It works, but the platform is old and offers no PCIe 4.0. A modern mainstream board gives better gaming value unless you already own a Core X CPU.
- Does it fit in a standard ATX case?
- It is extended ATX, so many mid-tower cases will not fit it. Check your case's motherboard support before buying.
- Where is the Gigabyte X299 AORUS MASTER LGA 2066 Extended ATX Motherboard cheapest?
- At Newegg, for $799.00, as of our latest check.
