Compatibility and service notes
Use only LGA1200 processors enumerated by GIGABYTE for rev. 1.0. 10th Gen CPU PCIe capability differs from 11th Gen, affecting the primary slot and CPU-attached storage. Follow the DDR4 population order and consult the manual for M.2/SATA sharing and E-ATX clearance.
Before service, document the silkscreen revision and BIOS ID. Use ESD-safe handling and a firmware image explicitly assigned to this board.
