Gigabyte B560M Ds3H Motherboard

Gigabyte B560M DS3H Motherboard:

The Gigabyte B560M DS3H Motherboard (rev. 1.0 or V2/V3 depending on revision) is a Micro ATX motherboard designed to support Intel® 11th and 10th Gen Core™ series processors with an LGA 1200 socket. It’s built on the Intel® B560 chipset, offering a reliable and feature-rich platform for building a balanced PC.

Key Features for a Balanced System:

This motherboard features a Direct 6+2 Phases Digital VRM Solution with Low RDS(on) MOSFETs, which provides stable and efficient power delivery to the CPU, contributing to overall system stability and performance. It’s designed with PCIe 4.0 Ready PCB and supports a full PCIe 4.0* design, allowing for the latest high-speed components, especially with 11th Gen Intel® CPUs.

For RAM, it includes four DDR4 DIMM sockets, supporting up to 128GB of dual-channel Non-ECC Unbuffered DDR4 RAM. It supports a wide range of RAM speeds, including overclocked speeds up to 5333MHz (O.C.) for 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i9/i7/i5 processors, and also supports Extreme Memory Profile (XMP) RAM modules.

Storage options include Dual Ultra-Fast NVMe PCIe 4.0/3.0* x4 M.2 connectors. One M.2 slot supports PCIe 4.0 x4/x2 SSDs (with 11th Gen CPUs), while the other supports SATA and PCIe 3.0 x4/x2 SSDs. It also provides six SATA 6Gb/s connectors and is Intel® Optane™ Memory Ready.

Network connectivity is handled by GIGABYTE Exclusive 8118 Gaming LAN with Bandwidth Management, which helps to improve network latency and maintain low ping times for a better online experience. Some revisions (like the DS3H AC) also include integrated 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.2.

The motherboard features High Quality Audio Capacitors and Audio Noise Guard with LED Trace Path Lighting, providing clear and immersive audio by separating sensitive analog audio components from potential noise interference.

For customization, RGB FUSION 2.0 supports addressable LED and RGB LED strips, allowing users to personalize their system’s lighting. Cooling is managed by Smart Fan 6, which offers multiple temperature sensors and hybrid fan headers with FAN STOP, enabling precise control over cooling and quiet operation.

For convenient BIOS updates, it includes Q-Flash Plus, allowing updates without installing the CPU, RAM, or graphics card.
