Gigabyte has not released the latest Intel DTT driver for this board, so you may not be able to benefit from the APO improvements in this platform yet. When I inquired, they told me to sit on my thumbs until their HQ feels like releasing it.
I just bought this motherboard and there was an extra $72 coupon as well. brought the price down to $168 before tax. It's the cheapest I've seen this MB for the last 5 months, I think. It is a very decent MB for the price.

I am seeing the driver under downloads. Is this not the one you are referring to?
Intel Dynamic Tuning Technology (APO) Driver
9.1.10000.62 Windows 10 64bit
Windows 11 64bit 26.10 MB Oct 26, 2025
That is not the latest version, APO will not run with that driver. Intel provides a base driver that Gigabyte needs to "customize" and release for their boards.
The "Failed To Connect" error you're encountering with the Application Optimization (APO) app seems to be a known issue related to the Intel Dynamic Tuning Technology (DTT) driver. The APO app has been updated in the Windows Store and now requires an updated DTT driver that has not yet been provided by motherboard manufacturers or OEMs. This mismatch between the app update and the driver availability is causing the connection failure.
