In our first day of travels at CES 2019, we met with our friends at GIGABYTE who had a lot to share. A couple of months back, they showed off the Z390 AORUS Extreme which was an incredibly feature-laden board with a robust VRM. Today they showed the Z390 AORUS Extreme Waterforce which adds a water block and cools the CPU, VRM, and chipset taking an already over the top motherboard and making it even cooler… in this case, literally.

AORUS RGB Series SSD

Additionally, they announced a RGB AIC SSD along with a M.2 variant. The AIC version comes in 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB with speeds rated at 3480 MB/s reads and 3080 MB/s writes making it one of the faster available in the market. Speed isn’t the only change with the new SSD, AORUS has also adorned it with an aluminum heatsink (makes contact with flash memory via thermal pad) and frosted RGB LEDs surrounding it taking the aesthetic to the next level. The RGB LED implementation is controlled via RGB Fusion software.
