Save $30 on a New Gigabyte Z790 Motherboard
A core component in any new build
As any PC builder knows, your choice of motherboard helps determine and tie in what kind of computer you're going to build. You have to pick your mobo with many significant hardware specifications in mind, such as what CPU platform it supports, type of RAM, generation of PCIe, number of USB headers, built-in wireless/Bluetooth - the list goes on. Today's deal is on a modern motherboard from Gigabyte that contains the LGA 1700 socket that supports Intel's 12th/13th/14th-generation processors.
Head to Amazon to save $30 on the Gigabyte Z790 GAMING X AX motherboard, which is on sale for $199. The MSRP price displayed is $249 but, it's been selling for $229 predominantly, so you're getting a 13% discount on its usual selling price realistically. Motherboards have held their value well, and this is a decent discount for a motherboard with these specs.
