What about this? Supposed to be b die and found it a fair bit cheaper? 175ish

It's all b die. Absolutely all and high bin.

As the big man has mentioned, both kits are B-Die, tight timings. Would personally go for the 4000hz for the price !
But situations can force you to go for the 3200 which is same price, those being hieght clearance. They are shorter and can be made even shorter by removing the top crown ! Used both - excellent kits

slap in the 3200hz version personally , Pro should be able to handle the speeds but normally 4000hz is better ran on ITX/Flagship models

the value of the 8 Pack kits is.... you have @8 Pack , how is kind enough to assist owners and hound vendors is he's ram kit isn't working to how he'd like it :)

if you want to be an animal, try and get CL10 3200hz running ;)

thermal grizzly :)

long as your case allows fans to be moved slightly higher in the case you should be fine . Technically i think the Pro kits have tighter timings - but they are all highly binned Samsung B-Die .

And I know a lot of Teamgroup and 8 Pack kits have been sent to Gigabyte to offer better ram support :)
 
Xtreme version - heads up, VRM running AXV is about 60c with 9900k at 5ghz

How much of that is down to Aorus, or Gigabyte themselves ? I'd be curious to know.

lot of it from feed back from Reviewers, forums and sales ! Z370 is always the stop gap, z390 was penned in before z370 launch . Intel was rushing to combat ryzen , why z370 is on a different node and H370/B360 had a new more integrated chipset. I think Gigabte played it to reframed with most of their z370 line up in which turn forced them to play such a bit hand with z390 line up, with 75% of their product being 12+1 phase design ...

they also went form being worlds largest supplier of motherboards by 2/3rds to slipping under asus who shot up with ROG branding and larger push . needed to get act together - now last effort is push on the bios front

Just ordered a Aorus Z390 Pro from elsewhere for a cracking price. It was that or the Asrock Extreme 4 so I hope I have made the right choice.

Design wise yes, hopefully bios well improve as well, believe the new Easy View layout isn't on release Bios but on the newer releases , advanced is still the same

Believe builzoid has actual pro and master boards , Gigabyte sent images of ITX and Xtreme it seems .
Will see bigger push their from Gigabyte with him self ... Learning to get such people on board is key
