Gigabyte B460 Hd3 Motherboard

Gigabyte B460 HD3 Motherboard:

The Gigabyte B460 HD3 (rev. 1.0) Motherboard is an ATX motherboard built around the Intel® B460 chipset. It’s designed to support 10th Gen Intel® Core™, Pentium® Gold, and Celeron® processors with an LGA 1200 socket. This motherboard aims to provide a reliable and feature-rich foundation for a desktop PC, balancing performance with essential connectivity and durability.

Key Features for a Robust System:

The B460 HD3 features a 4+2 Hybrid Digital VRM Solution with Low RDS(on) MOSFETs, which helps in efficient power delivery to the CPU and reduces energy waste. It supports Dual Channel Non-ECC Unbuffered DDR4 RAM across four DIMM sockets, allowing for up to 128GB of system RAM. For Intel® Core™ i9/i7 processors, it supports RAM speeds up to 2933 MHz, while for Intel® Core™ i5/i3/Pentium®/Celeron® processors, it supports up to 2666 MHz. It also supports Extreme Memory Profile (XMP) RAM modules.

For storage, the motherboard is equipped with Dual Ultra-Fast M.2 slots. One M.2 connector (M2Q_SB) supports PCIe x4/x2 SSDs, and the other (M2A_SB) supports both SATA and PCIe x4/x2 SSDs. These slots enable data transfer rates of up to 32 Gb/s, providing quick boot times and rapid application loading. Additionally, it offers six SATA 6Gb/s connectors with support for RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, and RAID 10 configurations. The motherboard is also Intel® Optane™ Memory Ready, which can accelerate traditional storage devices.

Network connectivity is provided by the GIGABYTE Exclusive 8118 Gaming LAN with Bandwidth Management, ensuring a fast and smooth online experience by prioritizing game or application traffic. For display output (when using compatible Intel® processors with integrated graphics), it offers D-Sub, DVI-D, and HDMI ports, supporting up to three displays simultaneously.

The motherboard features Smart Fan 5, which includes multiple temperature sensors and hybrid fan headers with a Fan Stop function. This allows for precise control over cooling and quieter operation when the system is under low load.

The “Ultra Durable” design of the B460 HD3 includes solid pin power connectors for stable power delivery and enhanced durability. It also features High Quality Onboard Audio Design with ALC1200 codec and audio noise guard, delivering high-resolution and high-fidelity audio. The motherboard incorporates GIGABYTE Patented DualBIOS™ Design, providing a backup BIOS to protect against BIOS failures. It also supports AMD Quad-GPU CrossFire™ and 2-Way AMD CrossFire™ technologies for multi-graphics card configurations.
