Some Gigabyte Z690 Motherboard Pricing Leaked by Newegg
The pricing of the seven leaked boards ranges from US$199.99 to US$469.99, which is less painful than what we’ve seen so far from other brands. The base model is the Gigabyte Z690 UD DDR4, which even at US$199.99 is almost $50 more than the current Z590 UD board from the same retailer. Moving up a step, we have the Z690 Gaming X DDR4 at US$229.99, followed by the Z690 Aorus Elite AX DDR4 at US$269.99 and the Z690 Aero G DDR4 at US$289.99.
The first DDR5 model leaked by Newegg is the Z690 Aorus Pro, which comes in at $329.99, followed by the high-end, but not quite flagship Z690 Aorus Master at US$469.99. The last board, which is another DDR4 board, is the Z690I Aorus Ultra, which is a Mini-ITX board. At least Gigabyte’s base model looks more attractive than MSI’s and ASRock’s base models, which also appear to cost more, but beyond that, we’re going to have to wait for official details later today, to have a closer look at the various boards.
