Questions
What's the warranty in India for the Gigabyte Z890 Aorus Elite AX?
3 years Gigabyte India. This is the official Indian distributor version, which means full manufacturer warranty support.
What does BIOS Flashback mean and do I need it?
BIOS Flashback lets you update the motherboard's BIOS using only a USB stick - no CPU required. This board does not have it. It matters if you're planning a Ryzen 9000 build. Without Flashback, buy from a seller who pre-flashes the board (MDC, PrimeABGB).
