All at One Cable that Does It All.

Did you experience your pen display connecting to the PC with lots of cables? GIGABYTE VisionLINK lets you not only without cable clutter, but also the benefit of data, video, and power charging the same time. One USB Type-C® cable connected, turn your workspace into neat and tidy.

VisionLINK TB, Your Thunderbolt™ 4

GIGABYTE VisionLINK TB is based on Thunderbolt™ 4, delivers 40Gb/s high-bandwidth speeds, data, video, 60W power, and USB4™ specification compliance devices with the simplicity of just one cable. One simple connectivity to make your work better than ever.

Connect Devices You Have. Like a Pro

Creators engaged in drawing work usually connect with a high-end pen display. Now, it can even be directly presented on the big screen to discuss more details or real-time rendering during the proposal. Meanwhile, they can have a daisy chain of multiple Thunderbolt™ devices together and ultimately end up with just one cable to make the connectivity to be simple.

Do more on the go with Intel WIFI 6E​

Intel latest wireless solution WIFI 6E 802.11ax with a new dedicated 6GHz band, enables gigabit wireless performance, fewer dropped connections, and reduces congestion in heavy bandwidth usage scenarios. Moreover, providing better WIFI signal strength of the antenna design compared to a traditional antenna.​

WIFI 6E Advantage

Spectrum congestion is huge problem in current WIFI environment nowadays because too many devices all use existing 2.4GHz and 5GHz spectrum, and it cause unreliable connection and slower speed. WIFI 6E is extended standard to WIFI 6, and it use dedicated 6GHz band that it provides not only brand new frequency to transfer data, but also spacious spectrum for future more devices. With WIFI 6E, users can enjoy faster connection and stronger signal than before.

Wait No More Make Your Network More Scalable

Onboard Marvell® AQtion 10 GbE Ethernet has driven high throughput performance and low latency to ensure faster transfer of large files used in data-intensive applications.

Intel® 2.5 GbE network connectivity supports speeds up to 2.5 times faster than Gigabit Ethernet. It gives an immediate boost to overall network performance and data transfer speeds.

No Hassle Connection.

To feature the USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 connectivity design, which is double performance than the current USB 3.2 Gen 2. It works up to 20Gbps ultra-fast data transfer while connecting to USB 3.2 compliant peripherals. You can enjoy the ultimate connection flexibility to access and store massive amounts of data rapidly.

Make Your Expandability Flexible.

Multi-card configurations provide better utility for applications such as 3D design or media workflows, deep learning, video film editing, and SSD storage capacity upgrades for maximum productivity. With expandable PCIe slots, you can do more than ever before.

Faster Instant Reaction Speed

You can never have enough memory bandwidth, and DDR5 helps meet this insatiable need for speed. Whether you are editing hundreds of audio samples, handling 4K footage, or multitasking workloads, it boosts system performance and offers you a smooth experience.

DDR5 Bandwidth

DDR5 delivers at least 1.5X more bandwidth than the prior generation. This will facilitate the bandwidth needed for some applications, such as AI training and content creation.​

PCIe Bandwidth*

Up to 128 GB/s from new PCIe 5.0 x16 slot designs for the next generation add on cards need tremendous bandwidth, including the graphics card, deep learning accelerator card and the video capture card.

Fast Speed. More Space.

This new model is equipped with four PCIe 4.0 M.2 sockets and it is capable to deliver superior bandwidth. Upgrade your storage configuration now to accelerate your workflow. PCIe 4.0 M.2 SSD gives you 7X faster data transferring speeds compared to 2.5” SATA solid-state drives.

The Fastest, Most Robust Level

Equipped with the PCIe 5.0 x16 slot designed to optimize multitasking and large workloads, that is also ready for a new PCIe 5.0 graphics card or storage device. Brings a new level of performance for demanding applications in the high-performance market.

NVMe PCIe x4 M.2

GIGABYTE's M.2 solution provides NVMe SSD RAID support for fast storage performance. For creators who demand high capacity and fast storage ability, the full speed PCIe 4.0 M.2 sockets offer them the flexibility for many storage combinations.

Creates Exclusive Storage Performance

The exclusive four PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 sockets are designed to handle the most data-consuming tasks without extra configuration.

Thermal Technology

An effective cooling solution can prevent the risk of design work being interrupted by an unexpected system crash. GIGABYTE’s advanced thermal solutions provide a perfect balance of aesthetics and performance. A large heat sink design and Direct-Touch Heatpipe II ensure stability during creative sessions.

M.2 Thermal Guard III

The new M.2 Thermal Guard III design elevates the height of the M.2 heatsink to increase the surface area for cooling M.2 SSDs. It prevents the thermal throttling at high transfer speeds and dissipates heat before it becomes a problem.

SMART FAN 6

Numerous hybrid fan headers and temperature sensors are planted on the motherboard to monitor in real time and configure fan mode to fit different workloads via Smart Fan 6. Creators are allowed to set the trigger point to activate the fan and its corresponding speed. The fan completely stops when performing light tasks to avoid noise.
