Description
GIGABYTE X870 AORUS TACHYON ICE is a high-end Extended ATX motherboard for AMD Ryzen 9000 series processors that blends extreme memory support and advanced connectivity for serious builders.
The X870 AORUS TACHYON ICE supports Socket AM5 and is compatible with AMD Ryzen 7000, 8000 and 9000 Series CPUs, making it a future-ready foundation for high-performance desktops and workstations.
Memory support is exceptional with two DIMM slots for DDR5-SDRAM in dual-channel mode, ECC and non-ECC compatibility, and official support up to an astonishing 9600 MHz and 128 GB total (up to 64 GB per slot). This makes the board ideal for memory-intensive applications such as content creation, virtualization and heavy multitasking.
Storage and expansion are comprehensive: three M.2 slots (one supporting PCIe 5.0 x4 up to 25110), additional PCIe 5.0 x16 slots, SATA III connectors and support for up to seven drives with RAID 0/1/5/10 capability for performance or redundancy. The board offers robust passive cooling and multiple headers for water pumps, fans and temperature sensors to keep components stable under load.
Connectivity is extensive and modern, featuring USB4 Gen 3x2, multiple USB 3.2 Gen2 and Gen1 Type-A and Type-C ports, dual PS/2 ports, HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 for integrated display options, and audio by Realtek ALC1220-VB delivering 7.1-channel sound with S/PDIF out. Networking includes onboard Wi‑Fi 7 (Realtek RTL8922AE), Bluetooth 5.4 and multi-gig Ethernet (2.5G / 5G) via a Realtek RTL8126 controller.
The board’s white aesthetic, passive cooling design and comprehensive power delivery — including dual 8-pin EPS connectors and multiple 12V and TPM headers — make it well suited for premium builds focused on performance, silence and expandability. Windows 11 x64 is supported out of the box and the UEFI AMI BIOS with 512 Mbit memory provides advanced tuning options.
Typical use cases include high-refresh gaming rigs with dual Gen5 GPUs, content creation workstations that demand fast DDR5 memory and multiple NVMe drives, and enthusiast overclocking or silent water-cooled builds. The GIGABYTE X870 AORUS TACHYON ICE places key selling points such as extreme memory speeds, PCIe 5.0 storage, Wi‑Fi 7, and multi-gig networking front and center for customers seeking a top-tier AM5 platform.
