## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this board have a 5v argb header compatible with fractal torrent's case led bar?**
A: It does

**Q: Do you need to update bios for Intel 13th gen?**
A: As far as my knowledge the Z790 boards will support 13th gens out of box. Z690 boards need to be flashed back( Bios Update) to support a 13th gen.

**Q: Can I run 64gb of 6400MHz RAM on this motherboard? The Manual doesn't specify 6400MHz support, but a website was saying it's usable after BIOS update?**
A: Go off of the brands website data. That would be the most accurate.

**Q: GIGABYTE Z790 IS there a variant with more pcie slots and without onboard video? Goal: Fastest handbrake PC ?**
A: If your after a fast gaming rig, this will do. Things of importance. 
Pci-x 5, pci-x 4, chipset supports DDr5, capable with 13th gen Itel cpu. Bout it, no need for more pci-x slots as most only support 1 5x, 2 4x and rest 3x. Thins one has a 5x for 4080ti RTX, pci-x 4 for best ssd and 3rd and 4th for anything else like a more affordable ssd for storage. There are no other MBs with more slots but some have for example 2 5x slots ect. Again if you buy a more expensive mb, you will not see much if any performance in Gaming. Provide more info on your planed Rig for additional help. I built mine off this mobo and it hit 24k in 3d mark bench test. That was with only a 4070ti. But the board worked flawless from first boot till now. Not one crash regardless of what it's doing. It also converts video files in a few hours. My previous rig took all night and it was Ryzen 5 and 2060 super.
