Gigabyte B760 Gaming X DDR4 Gen5 ATX LGA1700 Motherboard
The Gigabyte B760 Gaming X DDR4 Gen5 is an ATX motherboard for Intel 12th to 14th generation processors that brings PCIe 5.0 support to DDR4 platforms. It suits gamers and creators who want next-generation graphics card and storage bandwidth without switching to DDR5, solving the upgrade path for those with existing DDR4 memory.
Why this product
PCIe 5.0 ready for next-gen GPUs
The CPU-connected x16 slot runs at full PCIe 5.0 speeds, doubling bandwidth versus PCIe 4.0 to 32 GT/s per lane. High-performance graphics cards, NVMe drives, and AI accelerators benefit most.
One-piece molded heatsinks for power delivery
TMOS heatsinks cover MOSFETs with 4× the surface area of traditional designs and feature multi-cut channels to improve thermal dissipation and stability under load.
Fast M.2 and USB 3.2 Gen 2 connectivity
Three M.2 slots (one PCIe 4.0 from CPU, two from chipset) and USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A and Type-C ports rated to 10 Gbps support modern SSDs and peripherals.
Q-Flash Plus for CPU-free BIOS updates
Update BIOS directly via USB without installing a CPU, RAM, or GPU, using the dedicated Q-Flash Plus button and USB port.
DDR4 memory up to 5333 MHz overclocked
Four DIMM slots support up to 128 GB and handle DDR4 speeds from 2133 to 5333 MT/s, with XMP profile support for easy tuning.

- Intel 12th, 13th, and 14th generation Core, Pentium Gold, and Celeron processors in LGA1700 socket.
- DDR4 memory modules, including XMP-profiled kits rated up to 5333 MHz overclocked.
- PCIe 5.0 and PCIe 4.0 graphics cards and NVMe SSDs on all three M.2 slots.
- The CPU PCIe x16 slot runs at full PCIe 5.0; the two chipset slots run at PCIe 3.0 x1 each, limiting simultaneous high-bandwidth expansion.
- DDR5 memory; this board is DDR4-only.
- Intel Raptor Lake Refresh-S, Alder Lake-S, or older processors outside the 12th to 14th generation range.
Best for
- Gamers upgrading from 11th gen or earlier and keeping DDR4 memory.
- Creators using high-end graphics cards or fast NVMe storage that benefit from PCIe 5.0 bandwidth.
- Enthusiasts who overclock memory and want DDR4 support with multiple tuning profiles.
- Users who need reliable BIOS updates via Q-Flash Plus without installing all components first.
Trade-offs
- DDR5 system builders; this board only supports DDR4 memory.
- Multi-GPU setups; the two additional PCIe slots run at PCIe 3.0 x1, not x16.
- Builders using 11th generation Intel or older processors; LGA1700 supports only 12th gen and newer.
- Users needing Thunderbolt ports or WiFi; neither is present on this board.
The new GIGABYTE B760 motherboards provides the most efficient solution to enjoy boosted performance of PCIe Gen5 on the existing platform. PCIe 5.0 doubles the data transfer rate of PCIe 4.0 from 16 GT/s to 32 GT/s per lane. This substantial increase in bandwidth particularly benefits high-performance graphics cards, storage devices, and AI accelerators that demand faster data movement.
High coverage MOSFET and integrated molding Heatsinks to improve thermal efficiency with better airflow and heat exchange.
4X Large Surface – Increased surface area up to 4X larger compared to traditional heatsinks. It improves heat dissipation from the MOSFETs.
Real One-piece Build – TMOS is a TRUE single piece heatsink. Its one-piece design and larger surface drastically improve the cooling performance against competitors' multi-piece design.
Multi-Cut Design – TMOS features several channels and inlets on the heatsink.
Unlock the latch of the PCIe slot easily when remove the graphics card in the PCIe slot. Effortlessly upgrade your BIOS without the need to install CPU, RAM, or GPU. Connect the 24-pin and 8-pin power cables directly to the motherboard.
Download the motherboard's BIOS file, rename it to 'gigabyte.bin', and store it on a FAT32-formatted USB drive. Insert the drive into the Q-FLASH PLUS USB port. Press the Q-FLASH PLUS button to trigger automatic BIOS updating.
Technology embodies our commitment to excellence, providing gamers with a platform that's not only powerful but also built for longevity and reliability. GIGABYTE motherboards are engineered to endure and excel.
GIGABYTE's one-piece stainless-steel shielding design reinforces the PCIe Slots, providing the extra strength required to support heavy graphics cards.
Our innovative UD Power Connector design enhances power conductivity and thermal dissipation. Provide stable power for CPU integrated PCIe & Memory controller.
Experience ultimate connectivity with next-generation network, and storage solutions, delivering lightning-fast data transfer speeds. Design deliver blisteringly fast transfer speeds to ensure the most stable transmission environment when the system is performing cloud computing or providing external computing services.
Connecting the Future - Front USB3.2 Gen 2 Type-C® – USB 3.2 Gen 2 provides USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports with speeds up to 10Gbps. With twice the bandwidth compared to its previous generation as well as backwards compatibility with USB 2.0 and USB 3.2 Gen1, the much improved USB 3.2 Gen 2 protocol is available over the new reversible USB Type-C™ and the traditional USB Type-A connector for better compatibility over a wider range of devices.
