This thing is packed with features, lots of high power consumption consideration (considering it's an OC Monster). Tons of ease and quality of life features like the EZ PCI-E Release, the M.2 quick release hold downs, and white peripherals.

Doing a new build and the MOBO was flakey out of the box. Purchased a new one and sent the bad one back and received full credit within a couple of days of them receiving back under an RMA No. Newegg covered all shipping and emailed labels to print. Couldn't have been any smoother.

Went from MSI Z690 Pro to this MSI B850 and windows loaded right up. Did not have to do a clean install. I had the Windows USB boot drive installed and instead of asking me for a clean installed, it somehow downloaded what was needed and booted. Remember to have the internet connect through cable. Only problem I had was with Windows recognizing my key but Windows support helped me getting Windows acivated. All good now


No regrets I was looking forward to it!!

- Good build quality - Full PCIE lane access with lots of SSDs (not cutting into GPU bandwidth) - Easy BIOS usage - Good XMP RAM compatibility with few issues - Good stock voltage levels, not too aggressive - High amounts of USB ports and USB C header for the front - Good compatibility with 9000 series CPU

1) 10g nice on board 2) optional IPMI which I am planning to get. 3) Asus cpu enhancement all 24 cores fully under-load at 4.8GHz/ single core 5.2 boot stock out of the box 4) 1TB or Rdimm supported 5) lots of pcie slots for expansion

I purchased a 64GB kit and this Gigabyte X870e Aorus Master motherboard was a free gift. Paired nicely together with Corsair 64GB 6000mhz ram and and Ryzen 9800X3D. Memory training was quick, everything worked out of the box. Be sure to check your ram compatibility with your motherboard and that its rated EXPO.


Rear and front panel I/O are fantastic. Plenty of 10Gbps ports and USB4 / Thunderbolt compatibility. No tools required for M.2 access. Thermal pads on the top and bottom.

Easy to install and I love the convince of the m.2 slots and the ability to lock your gpu in place with a push of a button

Future proofing with USB4, and PCIE 5 for both graphics and NVME. Don't need the latter yet but when I do won't need to replace the board.
