GIGABYTE Z590 Vision D

The GIGABYTE Z590 Vision D is the top tier model in its line up for creators, with exquisite silver and black contrasting design. Like GIGABYTE's Designare models, which focus on premium controller sets utilized by creators and designers, the Z590 Vision D includes Thunderbolt 4 Type-C, three PCIe M.2 slots, dual 2.5 GbE, and Wi-Fi 6E networking. In the top-right hand corner is a two-digit LED debugger, with a wave of PCIe slot armor that matches the design of the rear panel cover and the power delivery heatsink covers.

Looking towards the center of the board sits the PCIe area, with three full-length PCIe slots operating at PCIe 4.0 x16, and x8/x8. The third slot is locked at PCIe 3.0 x4, with a single PCIe 3.0 x1 slot. The GIGABYTE offers three M.2 slots, with one PCIe 4.0 x4 and two PCIe 3.0/SATA, with six SATA ports for conventional drives with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 arrays. As it stands, GIGABYTE hasn't given us the QVL list for memory support, so it's listed at Intel's default DDR4-3200 spec, although the four memory slots can accommodate up to 128 GB. Like the Z590 Vision G, the GIGABYTE Z590 Vision D includes a USB 3.2 G2x2 Type-C internal header.

The GIGABYTE Z590 Vision G has a premium rear panel, with two Thunderbolt 4 Type-C ports supported with a  DisplayPort input and two USB 3.2 G2 Type-A and four USB 3.2 G1 Type-A ports. Realtek's latest ALC4080 HD audio codec makes an appearance and drives the five color-coded 3.5 mm audio jack and S/PDIF optical output. In contrast, an HDMI video output offers users support for Intel's HD integrated graphics. Finishing off the rear panel is a pair of Intel I225-V 2.5 GbE controllers, with Intel's latest AX210 Wi-Fi 6E CNVi, which also includes support for BT 5.2 devices.

At the time of writing, GIGABYTE hasn't shared any details on its Z590 models' pricing.

    If my x570 Aorus Master fan is "active", it has sure fooled me...;) It is not audible.

    I'm on a Asus Prime X570-Pro for just over a year now and I've not heard the chipset fan once totally overblown issue. Drama queens!

    I think it's impressive Intel kept a PCIe4.0 chipset down to 6w TDP. Definitely doesn't need active cooling.

    The chipset isn't Gen4.

    Not surprised if they're expecting users to overclock chips that will exceed 200W at stock settings. 😬

    Is it just me or are the MSRPs listed utterly insane? Intel has been relegated to a poor man's AMD, yet these crazy prices? As they say, a fool and his money are soon parted.

    I don't think it's actually the chipset costs that are inflating the price of the boards, but the ridiculous power circuit and components required to deliver over 200w of power to the CPU's in order for these board makers to take advantage of PL2.

    I thought the active fan is for the 10 gig networking chip. It is facing that heatsink which is right next to the vrm heatsink.

    Looking at the prices, I'm really, REALLY glad that I bought an AORUS Z490 Elite (£154, new) from eBay. I just don't understand the prices.

    I've just done exactly the same, no regrets whatsoever
