Like its Z490 predecessor, the Gigabyte Z590I AORUS Ultra comes with a lot of hardware packed into a small form factor. Among its features are 2.5 Gb/s Ethernet, WiFi 6, dual M.2 slots, and top-tier 90 A power stages. Let's dig in to see how Gigabyte has improved an already excellent design!

Since 2010 Intel has never had 1 gen per socket. That's 11 years ago.
Better to think of it as four generations of motherboard per CPU now ;)
Z170 for Skylake
Z270 for a Skylake using a new marketing name.
Z390 for Skylake with two extra cores
Z490 for Skylake +++ and also the "10-core Skylake Yield Problems Marketing Stunt Edition."
