3 nvme slots Good wireless Like UEFI bios, upgrading from circa 2010 lol
-It does what its supposed to do. -The wifi module included/ -plenty of features. -has bios flash back. -Affordable.
I upgraded from a (MSxi) X570which was always very slow to get through the BIOS boot process (it took minutes). This was a defect, probably caused by the mobo searching for uninstalled hardware. This motherboard boots normally after the initial boot, which seemed to take forever. The physical layout is pretty standard. I like this motherboard, used with a Ryzen 9600X CPU. The Gen5 Samsung 990 EVO plus SSD runs off two CPU PCIe lanes (which the 990 Pro and EVO versions cannot do), leaving the full 16 lanes on the motherboard for the PCIe slots. I like the Ez-Latch feature on the NVME slot heatsinks - no tiny screws to lose. There's lots of USB back panel USB ports, and more on the board. It has only three PCIe slots - one 16 lane slot and two one-lane slots - enough for me - but my previous boards have had more. Heat sinks abound. Unlike some other boards I've used, the reset pin is in the lower right corner, where it's easy to reach. The board seems physically heavier than my previous boards. NOTE - while the 6 pin PCIe power connectors fit in an 8 pin supplementary power supply socket (backwards), but the polarity is reversed. And don't use accessory removable cables from other power supplies without first checking pin polarity. Cabling from different PS manufacturers is not necessarily interchangeable. Polarity may be reversed, even though the connectors are the same. I lost three backup hard drives when I over-volted them a few years back. Live and learn. Unlike with my previous boards, the learning curve for the AMI BIOS is fast. I found the BIOS easy to work with. I immediately upgraded the BIOS from within the BIOS, which was easy if you plug the flash drive (containing only the new BIOS file) into the correct USB port (marked BIOS). I put the f3 BIOS flash drive in the wrong USB port, and of course, the update failed. Read the manual first, which had to be downloaded from the Gigabyte website and printed out using my old computer. Avoid a heart attack. After installing a few core software programs, I played with the BIOS. I didn't overclock, but I did examine the BIOS pretty carefully. I like it. Unlike previous mobo's, this BIOS used the advertised CPU and memory speed ratings and settings on the initial boot. No BIOS changes were needed to get up to spec speeds. It also had some text to explain some of the features. The overclocking options are all there, but as with other BIOS's, they are buried pretty deep in the menu structure, so it takes some time to learn how to navigate through the advanced features of the BIOS. Overclocking can be simple with this (AMI) BIOS, or complex. Most of the advanced settings are set to Auto. Overall, I spent considerably less startup time with this BIOS than with previous BIOS's. Once you find out where to look, it's pretty easy to work with. It is adapted to varying levels of experience, so you can easily overclock automatically. If you are serious, you can play with the CPU and memory timings. Then I upgraded to Win 11, which was quick and easy. What a discouragement! Microsoft has done it again, making it more like a cell phone than ever before. It's more automated and for me, harder (almost impossible) to find the settings I work with within Windows. Nomenclature and procedures have changed for the worse - again. Even the Win FIle Manager has been altered for the worse. It's a giant riddle to do what I was used to doing in Win 10 without thinking. Like putting program icons on the desktop. Or changing the desktop background to a solid color. So I recovered Win 10 and installed "Classic Shell", which changes the look and feel to more like that of Win 7. At that point found I had no sound output even though Device Manager showed Sound as working properly. After trying to fix this with the Control Panel, which didn't work, I used the Gigabyte Control Center to install the Gigabyte sound drivers, downloaded from their website. No problemma. Five Stars+
Fantastic quality
White looks great. Lots of work space. Very dummy proof. I.O cluster is plentiful in its offerings
The options of components that you can put on this motherboard without worrying about taxing it are great. We're testing games that have not yet been optimized so will be putting it through the paces but it's more than capable to build a great system. Having visual post errors helps. The USB4 is great for running a full frame camera for presentations.
AM5 Socket 4 Dimm slots WiFi built in
Built in WiFi on a budget board! Great price, easy to use bios, looks and preforms well so far!
- It works - Plenty of USB ports - USB antenna is not limited to I/O port but has a magnetic base and can be moved and positioned as needed - LED troubleshooting
- Compact - Tons of M.2 - Amazing memory support - Amazing OOTB CPU support - Not running too hot under normal use
A sturdy motherboard that has plenty of connections and rear io ports. The board was very easy to flash with a usb out of the box. Asus's driver program is really helpful at identifying what needs to be updated. Armory crate is pretty good too. The look of the board is really clean and matches my build really well.
-Awesome budget motherboard that delivers a phenomenal gaming experience. -Awesome user manual makes for easy installation -Very sturdy, can easily see and feel its quality -Ryzen -Easy navigation through BIOS -Troubleshooting LED indicators allow easy diagnosis of potential problems within hardware systems
- The Aesthetic - 6 Sysfan connector, perfect for use MSI Center Fan management software - No Tool installation for SSD M.2 - EZ Connect - Motherboard Driver Installation via MSI Driver Utility Installer during first boot of OS
Everything works as described and as I expected.
- Beautiful looking - feels very sturdy and high quality - all the latest and best tech - included wifi
-Clearly labeled -Extra USB ports, and quality ones at that. -Wifi 7 - didn't know we had made it past 6E -Extra heat sink for M2 slots under GPU -Plenty of connection for USB and fans -Cool little LED RBG strip on the thing at least lets you know it's getting power, also assignable to do stuff, haven't played around with it yet
Came with UEFI and Secure Boot enabled, which was a pleasant surprise. The BIOS was only a few months old so I haven't even bothered to consider updating. Everything worked first time as expected
