Gigabyte Z490 VISION G Review
Audio Quality »Finished Looks
The Gigabyte Z490 Vision G has a striking white and silver theme that stands out nicely against darker components.
The RGB on the Gigabyte Z490 Vision G is limited to a single zone over the rear I/O. The diffusion is excellent and a great compliment to the white aesthetic, but it could be brighter.
