Gigabyte B860 GAMING X WIFI6E ATX Intel LGA1851 Motherboard
The Gigabyte B860 GAMING X WIFI6E is an ATX motherboard built for Intel Core Ultra processors on the LGA1851 socket. It combines DDR5 memory support with Wi-Fi 6E connectivity and PCIe 5.0 expansion, designed for gamers and builders who want modern I/O and overclocking capability without overspecifying for workstation or server use.
Why this product
Wi-Fi 6E wireless networking
Built-in Wi-Fi 6E with dual antennas (2T2R) offers the latest wireless standard for reduced latency and higher throughput than Wi-Fi 6.
PCIe 5.0 M.2 and x16 slots
One M.2 slot and one x16 expansion slot run at PCIe 5.0 speeds for future-ready NVMe drives and graphics cards.
DDR5 memory with XMP Booster
Supports up to 256 GB of DDR5 memory across four DIMM slots, with AI-enhanced DDR5 XMP Booster for automated overclocking without manual tuning.
Multiple display outputs
Three independent video outputs—HDMI, DisplayPort, and USB4 Type-C—allow simultaneous connection to up to three displays for work or gaming.
2.5 GbE wired networking
One Ethernet port delivers 2.5 Gigabit per second throughput, a step up from standard 1 GbE for file transfers and online play.
