Gigabyte has officially launched the cutting-edge Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE motherboard, recognized for enabling overclockers to achieve remarkable memory speeds in conjunction with Intel’s Core Ultra Series 2 processors. This release marks a significant milestone for enthusiasts looking to push their hardware to the limits.
Groundbreaking Memory Performance: Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE
The Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE has swiftly become a favorite among serious overclockers. Historically, experts like HiCookie have endeavored to surpass the 12, 000 MT/s threshold. The motherboard gained notable attention when Splave previously hit an impressive memory speed of 12, 698 MT/s.
Recently, HiCookie broke the record, achieving an astounding 12, 726 MT/s, showcasing the Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE’s outstanding overclocking capabilities. Often, motherboards tailored for overclocking enthusiasts are quietly released only after being tested by seasoned users. With this breakthrough, Gigabyte is now ready to make the Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE available to a wider audience of gaming and tech enthusiasts.

Details about the Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE motherboard are available on Gigabyte’s official website, where the record-breaking 12, 726 MT/s speed is highlighted as a key feature. Although the motherboard presents a default limit of 9500 MT/s, skilled users can push the boundaries further with optimized timings and voltage adjustments.
The motherboard features a distinctive design, with DIMM slots positioned at the top and an LGA 1851 socket oriented at a 90° angle. Notably, it supports only 2 DIMMs in a dual-channel configuration, a design choice that facilitates enhanced memory speed achievements. The board’s robust 18+1+2 power phase VRM setup with 110A Smart Power Stages not only allows for significant memory overclocking but also provides ample headroom for CPU overclocking endeavors.

Equipped with a suite of onboard tools for overclockers, the Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE simplifies experimentation with features including error code displays, quick power and reset buttons, CMOS clear functionalities, and various BIOS options. A unique two BIOS switch provides safety in case of configuration errors, a feature seldom found in most contemporary 800-series motherboards.

In addition to its formidable overclocking features, the Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE boasts advanced connectivity options, including WiFi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, 5GbE LAN, and Thunderbolt 4 ports. The motherboard further supports a variety of USB A and C ports alongside multiple headers for RGB lighting and cooling systems, making it an all-encompassing solution for Intel Core Series 2 users.
While pricing and availability details have yet to be confirmed, enthusiasts can anticipate the Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE hitting the market soon.
