Don't go for Gigabyte guys...it's not worth a penny. Go for MSI instead. I tried Gigabyte for a few weeks: - after 20 mintues render on 8 cores VRM was hitting 85'C and MB would shut down - issues with sound card (crackling noise) - pc not waking up from sleep - fans behaving as they want -...

Tried both. First i started with original one mentioned by you. Couldn't fix it so i did fresh install and went with the one pulled by windows. Same bahavior. If i plug speakers into external usb sound card everything works fine.

gigabyte z390 m gaming This is really weird one. start my PC normally - crackling during the music If i restart pc (restart not shutdown/power on) it works like charm without issues. If u put it in the sleep and wake up => crackling. So seems like it works properly only after restart from...

Just fyi, Gigabyte sound card is garbage. Can't make it work properly with windows 10. Everytime i reboot PC i have to restart it again to stop crackling noise from the speakers. Super annoying..... I might return it and go for MSI. Especially that PCI layout on Gigabyte , if i add sound card i...

Audio is important for me as well. I don't get the game code. So if I'll buy Gigabyte I have better vrm + I'll buy an external sound card which will be better than the one on the motherboard and I total about 10$ more expensive which is nothing :)

Yeah, just to be safe i think I'll go with https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/Z390-M-GAMING-rev-10#kf 10+2 and good quality as well if you trust Buildzoid. I have 1,9 Gbp wifi card anyway so only departments I'm settling are looks and sound card.

Yeah...and it has the looks :D Since I'm not planning to do any OC I think I'll go with MSI. Do some testing on 24 hours continuous load which is not uncommon for me and i guess we will see :)

The problem is that they don't have higher tier mATX boards :(

Golden grail ! https://ocaholic.ch/modules/publisher/item.php?itemid=4184 So it's 4x2 +1

Yeah, I've been there. They list MPG Z390 Gaming Edge AC from which is my first screen for ATX. They don't have mATX version listed. And if i compare backplate between MPG Z390 Gaming Edge AC and MPG Z390M Gaming Edge AC i think it has one phase less. But it's just me guessing by number of dots...

Yeah, it seems like I was wrong :P I'm trying to figure how many phases mATX version has. On one of youtube videos, I did a snapshot of the back. Looks to me like it has 4+1 vs 5+1 it has on ATX which is bummer Sadly no proper reviews on the WHOOOOLE internet :(

Thanks for all your input @rIcK I was looking to create a setup with 9900k and I decided to go with mATX MSI as well. It's hard to find any review for this and your screens helped me to make a call. A lot of people praising Gigabyte for their 10+2 VRM section. And guess what? MSI has the same...
