The Intel Z590 Motherboard Overview: 50+ Motherboards Detailed
by Gavin Bonshor on January 19, 2021 10:15 AM ESTGIGABYTE Z590I Vision D
Based on its larger ATX sibling, the Z590 Vision D, the GIGABYTE Z590I Vision D follows similar principles in that it is designed for content creators but for those that require a small desktop footprint. Aside from its small form factor mini-ITX design, it uses silver and black contrasting heatsinks and packs a mighty punch in the features department. It includes dual Thunderbolt 4 Type-C, Intel's 2.5 Gb Ethernet, as well as Wi-Fi 6 and dual PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2.
Located along the bottom of the board is a single full-length PCIe 4.0 x16 slot, with solid storage options including dual PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2, as well as four straight angled SATA ports that include support for RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10. GIGABYTE hasn't unveiled memory compatibility, so things currently stand at DDR4-3200, although users can still install up to 64 GB of memory across two slots.
The rear panel is impressive for a mini-ITX model, with dual Thunderbolt 4 Type-C and DisplayPort input and two USB 3.2 G2 Type-A and four USB 3.2 G1 Type-A ports. Networking includes Intel's I225-V 2.5 GbE controller and Intel AX210 Wi-Fi 6E CNVi pairing, with just two 3.5 mm audio jacks line-out and another for a microphone. Last but not least is a small Q-Flash button that allows users to update the board's firmware.
At the time of writing, GIGABYTE hasn't shared any details on its Z590 models' pricing.

I'm a bit surprised they went to an x8 3.0 link on the chipset instead of an x4 4.0 one, even if everything coming off of the chipset is still limited to 3.0 speed.QinX - Tuesday, January 19, 2021 - link
Might be because it makes routing the traces easier, they don't have to adhere to the PCIe 4.0 signal requirements. Downside would be that more pins are required.scottlarm - Saturday, January 23, 2021 - link

Other being quite boring platform , there is noticeable lack of M-ATX offerings.Chaitanya - Tuesday, January 19, 2021 - link
Also it seems like even with properly finned heatsinks Gigabyte Aorus master requires a fan to cool VRMs which is not a good sign.g85222456 - Tuesday, January 19, 2021 - link
