Easy to connect, looks great in my first PC build.

- Probably the best B850 Board - Plenty of connection. 2x Gen5 NVME Supper. Minimal Lane sharing ( Only with 3rd M.2) - Ez-Conn Switch add extra ports. Saved the day for rear fans. - Plenty of fan headers and really good VRMs.

ASRock quality. Great price for home office solution. Running Core 5 Ultra 5 250K Plus with no problem.

easy install lots of options

- works great - has rgb controllers (that I don't use) - software gives control on desktop - wifi antenna has magnetic base so you can slap it anywhere on the case

PCIE 5.0 Powerful VRM with great Thermal Design 4 m.2 sockets (2 gen 5) Audio Boost 5 with Line outs Wifi/Bluetooth USB ports

The aesthetic of the motherboard looks amazing. The picture I uploaded shows the PC mid-build so you can really see the motherboard. I appreciate the subtle built-in RGB lighting around the logos. The board also has a great mix of white and silver throughout that really adds to that "Ice" moniker. The easy latch system makes removing the GPU really simple. A big positive note is that I was able to POST the system on the first try. I used DDR5 6000CL28 from G.Skill with an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D and encountered no issues. The BIOS has all the main features right up front with no need to dig through additional hidden menus. The motherboard has a built-in HDMI port on the inside for you to hook up a sensor panel screen. Note that your CPU will need to have integrated graphics of some sort and you'll have to download the AM5 graphics drivers from the AMD website.

It came with the F3 bios, which is what I was hoping for, so no need to flash this bios. Everything worked out of the box with no issues, for example, the WiFi, the LAN, the audio (which is a very modest audio setup but it works well; more to that later). Bluetooth works very well, and NOTE, the antenna they include is not just for WiFi, but for Bluetooth as well. Gigabyte says little about the antenna, but it does affect Bluetooth performance for distant devices. All external connections work fine, as do internal connections. There are 3 screws built into the plate that covers the M2 drives, this is a nice feature (the built-in screws), makes it easy to remove and replace. The little connectors that hold the end of M2 drives in place is a really nice feature. Nice touch. This mobo says it is compatible with 6000Mt 16G x 2 sticks of Corsair Vengeance, Indeed, with XMP set, I am running two such sticks at 6000 (40-40-40-77-117) with Cmd Rate of 1T. That's a little fast for the i5-13600k chip, but is holding steady under stress testing at stock settings. So I''m pleased. With faster memory settings under stress, ,however, the system crashes but that is without any tweaking of the memory settings. I will be exploring more. The bios is pretty straightforward, though I wish Gigabyte had more documentation. There are so many settings, it is a bit overwhelming. There are some good "how-to" guides on YT, such as the following: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPxosArjVVw&t=548s Overall, working with this motherboard has been pretty painless; it's well built and of high quality.

-Extensive Bios features with Ez and advanced screens. -Still have access to most of the m2 slots with large video card installed. -Detected DDR5 corsair memory and suggested the correct xmp profile and speed with 1 click. -Very sturdy board.

this is my first itx and back with AMD - worked perfect - no issues so far - booted up fine with F12 bios - updated to F13 - all good - AMD all the way

Workability, Usability, esthetics, was very easy to install and set up. It lets my components breathe and work to the nine without any issues. Set it up with dual boot of windows and a specially made kali linux version they did for me.

It has a lot of features for the price. Under stress testing this board performs flawless. It's 100% stable using t-force memory.

it’s good motherboard because it has RGB which obviously gives you 400+ more frames, also has more than 1 m.2 slots

Awesome board I love it runs my i7 13700 so good no high temperature underload it's also good for overclocking

Everything is perfect!

- easy to set up lots of space

Works with and USES ECC memory, as confirmed in Ubuntu 24.04 (Kingston KSM48E40BD8KI-32HA). I didn't have to fiddle with the bios at all - either to get full performance in Passmark versus existing baselines, or to get ECC memory to be recognized and to work in Linux. This was great, as I "upgraded" early from my (not old) Gigabyte B760M with the borked 13900K.

I haven't built a PC since 2017 so this one is a huge upgrade from that era. It's also my first Gigabyte/Aorus product and have had no issues getting it up and running with a 9800x3d and 64gb Corsair RAM with expo enabled. I haven't really tinkered with it nor needed to. Stable, cool, and quiet in all stress-testing and gaming. -Tons of connectivity -Fan headers all over -Solid, well-built, and has massive heatsinks -Classy and subtle RGB -Great looking board for a white/cold looking build, though my air cooler blocks half the view

- Stable with no crashes in 6 weeks of use - it has enough features with 4 ram slots, rgb headers, bluethooth and wifi built in to make it feel better than the cheapest options - Great price - XMP/DOCP worked on second attempt with G. Skill RGB 3600 Mhz Ram

It works great in combination with the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU, 64 gb Kingston CL30 RAM, 4 TB Crucial T500 M.2 hard drive in the first slot above the GPU slot and topped off with an Asus TUF RTX 5080 graphics card. This system is amazing, and my in game from rates have increased 4 times from my prior system.
