Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Master – Best VRM Cooling We Have Ever Seen

Performance and Overclocking

Working in the BIOS set-up screen is a familiar process as Gigabyte has carried over the features we have seen in previous enthusiast motherboards.

Performance and Overclocking Overview
We overclocked our Core i9-9900K to 5.0GHz by simply raising CPU Vcore to 1.35V, setting Loadline Calibration to Turbo and bumping the multiplier to 50x. This was incredibly easy and was also what we expect to see with an Intel Coffee Lake CPU. This particular CPU can run at 5.1GHz however the CPU temperature gets uncomfortably high so the limiting factor here is the CPU rather than the motherboard.
