Performance
6+2+1 Phases Hybrid Power Design
Cleaner and more efficient power delivery to the CPU with better thermal performance ensure stability under high CPU frequencies and heavy loading.
- 6+2+1 Phases Low RDS(on) MOSFETs
- Solid capacitors to improve transient response and minimize oscillation
- 8-pin Solid Pin CPU Power Connector
PCIe 4.0 Design
GIGABYTE B660 Motherboards are ready to work with the PCIe 4.0 devices which are expected to experience twice bandwidth than the current PCIe 3.0 devices. To reach the high speed and maintain good signal integrity, GIGABYTE R&D uses the low impedance PCB to provide the maximum performance.
Support for DDR4 XMP Up to 5333MHz and Beyond
Gigabyte is offering a tested and proven platform that ensures proper compatibility with profiles up to 5333MHz and beyond. All users need to do to attain this performance boost is to ensure that their memory module is XMP capable and that the XMP function is activated and enabled on their Gigabyte motherboard.
Dual PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 Connectors with Thermal Guard
Cooling
M.2 Thermal Guard
With durability in mind, Gigabyte provides a thermal solution for M.2 SSD devices. The M.2 Thermal Guard prevents throttling and bottlenecks from high speed M.2 SSDs as it helps to dissipate heat before it becomes an issue.
Smart Fan 6
Smart Fan 6 contains several unique cooling features that ensure gaming PC maintain its performance while staying cool and quiet. Multiple fan headers can support PWM/DC fan and pump, and users can easily define each fan curve based on different temperature sensors across the board via intuitive user interface.
Smart Fan 6 BIOS UI
1. Improve fan curve UI, with increased control points from 5 to 7 and larger fan speed graph for precise and easier fan curve control.
2. Slope/Stair dual graph mode, fan curve can be quickly switch with Slope and Stair modes for different user scenario.
3. Manual Input, for advanced users, we provide fan speed manual input for more precise control.
4. EZ Tuning, use can place 4 EZ Tuning points at rough temperature/fan speed, and Smart Fan 6 can quickly generate a fan curve.
5. Fan curve profile, fan curve profile can be saved in BIOS ROM, profile will be kept after updating BIOS.
Fan Stop
With Fan Stop, map any fan to stop completely when temperatures drop below a specified threshold. Which fan stops, based on readings from which sensor, and at what temperature, all of it can be customized to your liking.
Connectivity
2.5 GbE LAN
- Adoption of 2.5G LAN provide up to 2.5 GbE network connectivity, with at least 2 times faster transfer speeds compared to general 1 GbE networking, perfectly designed for gamers with ultimate online gaming experience.
- Support Multi-Gig(10/100/1000/2500Mbps) RJ-45 Ethernet
USB Type-C
The USB Type-C is a reversible connector that is loaded with useful features such as USB 3.2 Gen2 support for 10Gb/s transfer speed. Powered by the Intel® USB 3.2 Gen2 controller, this little port provides the best USB Type-C experience possible.
HDMI 2.0
HDMI 2.0, which is backwards compatible with HDMI 1.4, offers 18 Gb/s of bandwidth, nearly twice that of the previous generation. This unlocks the potential for users to transfer multiple video streams, as well as a native cinematic 21:9 ratio (which most movies are shot in), offering the best visual experience for viewers.
Hi-Fi Audio
- High-End Audio Capacitors
Gigabyte motherboards use high-end audio capacitors. These high quality capacitors help deliver high resolution and high fidelity audio to provide the most realistic sound effects for gamers.
- Audio Noise Guard
Gigabyte motherboards feature an audio noise guard that essentially separates the board’s sensitive analog audio components from potential noise pollution at the PCB level.
Q-Flash Plus
Update the BIOS easily
With Q-Flash Plus, you don’t need to install the CPU, memory and graphics card nor enter the BIOS menu to flash the BIOS. Just download and save a new BIOS file (rename to gigabyte.bin) on the USB flash drive, then press the dedicated Q-Flash Plus button and you’re good to go!
RGB FUSION 2.0
With Gigabyte motherboards, RGB Fusion 2.0 is even better with digital LEDs. RGB Fusion 2.0 offers users the ability to control the built-in RGB and external RGBW/Digital LED strips for their computer.
AORUS Gaming motherboards support 5v or 12v Led Lighting Strips and up to 300 LEDs. The RGB Fusion 2.0 with Digital LED comes with 9 new patterns and various speed settings with many more.
With an integrated intuitive user interface, the RGB Fusion 2.0 provides you a better solution for customizing the lighting effects across all supported devices. From motherboards, graphics cards to the peripheral products, you can personalize your gaming rig with your own style and show off your build by sharing the profiles. In addition, the new gaming mode makes the lighting effects interactive with selected games to bring you the most immersive gaming experience.
Refreshed BIOS
The BIOS is essential for users during initial setup to allow for the most optimal settings. With a new GUI and easier to use functionalities, Gigabyte has been able to reinvent the BIOS to give users a better experience while setting up their new system.
EasyTune
EasyTune is a simple and easy-to-use interface that allows users to fine-tune their system settings or adjust system and memory clocks and voltages in a Windows environment.
System Information Viewer
System Information Viewer is a central location that gives you access to your current system status. Monitor components such as the clocks and processor, set your preferred fan speed profile, create alerts when temperatures get too high or record your system's behavior; these are the possibilities of the System Information Viewer.
