A solid option at the price.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The reviews on this seem mixed, so I thought I would add my own. I've worked in IT for over 20 years. This motherboard is a great value for the price. It's not perfect, but it works well right out of the box and Gigabyte does a nice job making driver installs very easy. A lot of reviews mentioned dead boards but I had no issues at all. Maybe there were issues with the first runs, but that's also why I tend to wait until a product has been out for 6 months or so before ordering. Let others be the beta testers, especially with a new platform like AM5. Installing Windows was easy, installing drivers also very easy. Firmware updates were also simple. The build quality is great, I was surprised by the heft to the board, but AM5 adds great features like a permanent backplate, and Gigabyte added a lot of nice heat sink options to this board. Very few negatives bring the score down a bit. For the price, it should have wifi and bluetooth. It also should have a better back plate. That's really it, otherwise, great motherboard.

Wondeful to work with motherboard.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is one of the best value for your money AM5 motherboards out there. As with all AM5 boards ake sure to inspect the CPU socket for bent pads, and when you install the RAM have the motherboard on a flat hard surface to make sure the RAM seats properly. All of the ports work, and there are no compromises on connectivity, and from the M.2 working at the same time as all the expansion slots and the SATA ports. I will note update the BIO/UEFI before changing any settings beyond default and you should have no problems enabling higher RAM speeds, and yes the motherboard does let you multiplex the 16x slot a huge plus if you want to put a M.2 carrier card in it and use the CPU's integrated graphics for example in a home file server.

Great board, bit noisy
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great small form-factor board, does what a mobo should do. Only issue I had was a very high pitched coil whine, thought it was the CPU at first but it's the board. Still holds up well enough for an AM5 board.

Backup becomes First String Player!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was purchased as a testing boared but ended up becoming a replacement board. As with any new build, without a test stand, its difficult to determine a factory defect or component hardware related cause to a failure. This board isolated the root cause and in that evaluation made me realize that this was the better choice for my needs. I did, however, discover firsthand the drawbacks to this manufacturer's support for certain processors and their memory requirements/capabilities. In the end, I'm still deciding on purchasing yet another one!

Early BIOS was finicky, board rocks after update!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this board because it seemed to be good enough for a 7700x based gaming PC, and I wasn't planning on overclocking it. (I got lucky and now that there has been some legit reviews, this is the best bang for the buck AM5 in early 2023 if you don't feel the need for any PCIE 5.0) When I got it it wouldn't post. Not a big issue, guessing it was the earlier UEFI/BIOS got stuck memory training. Cleared the CMOS, booted up right away. Updated to newest BIOS. EXPO set correctly, windows installed easily, and with mid tier CL36 DDR5 5600 I'm still getting baller FPS with my 7900XTX. (sidenote, apparently DDR5 takes longer for the board to acknowledge it correctly? "memory training"? watch some tech tubers, they explain it way better than I can)

Q: QuestionWill the b650 be better for a ryzen 5600x 6 core 12 thread or a b550?
Asked by Nick.
- A:Answer The 600 series of motherboards is incompatible with ryzen cpus below ryzen 7000. Your ryzen 5600x has a different socket and is not compatible with any 600 series motherboard ( A620, B650, X670 ). It is however compatible with all 500 series motherboards and some 400 and even 300 series motherboards, though I would suggest going with a B550 motherboard. Dont get the A520 motherboard as you have a X series chip which draws more power.
