GIGABYTE’s solid reputation in
the industry has been nothing short of outstanding through a strong suit of motherboards
and graphics cards designed to cater to hardcore gamers and enthusiasts. Now,
the company has just announced its new AORUS Gaming line of motherboards that
supports Intel’s latest processors for the Philippine market!
The GIGABYTE AORUS brand was
first popularized by the company’s lineup of gaming products from high-performance
gaming laptops to mechanical keyboards and gaming mouse. Now, the company dons
the name into its motherboards, thereby getting a unified branding for its full
range of products that cater to the high-end segment.
The AORUS motherboards offer easy
customization and personalization through their unique features – the lineup
supports liquid cooling to deliver step-up cooling performance, fully customizable
RGB LED lights for bling, an intuitive software that gives a one-stop control
panel for optimization and personalization, and specific features for the
company’s offering in each price range.
Now, if you want to get some fun
in personalizing your gaming rig with fancy colors, GIGABYTE has got you
covered. The AORUS’ RGB Fusion fashions your gaming machine with absolute light
show. It supports RGBW LED light strips to give you a whole lot of colors and
combinations so you don’t run out of ideas on how to amp up your rig.
GIGABYTE is also offering its
Smart Fan 5 to give a smart and absolute control of fans. Airflow has been one
of the most important elements on a PC. All of the fan headers act as Hybrid
Fan headers that allows users to control each fan without all the confusion on
which one does what. Specific fan headers can even support power of up to 2A
for larger fans and pumps.
