Customer Ratings & Reviews

THE GOOD: Plenty of connectors and USB on the i/o. Very easy to build with too. looks decent enough, No RGB THE NOT SO GOOD: Absolutely no instructions at all. not even a link to the site with all the firmware. Bluetooth wont work until you figure out how to get all the firmware. Part of the firm ware includes Norton (the worse virus of them all). No RGB.

The flash bios button is pretty sweet, looks great and runs even better

Easy installation, and i love the multiple spots for m.2 drives. The wifi has been giving me some trouble but i use an ethernet so i cant really complain. All connections were very easy to find and most of them have it labled.

The Gigabyte AORUS ELITE AX is a fantastic B650 motherboard. It offers excellent features, including Wi-Fi 6E, and has proven to be stable and reliable. A great choice for building a new AM5 system.

The Aurois Axe Elite is a popular choice among fragrance enthusiasts. It's got a unique blend of notes that might just tickle your fancy. Here's what I've got: Pros: - Long-lasting scent, lasts all day kinda deal - Projection is fire, people will notice - Unique blend of aquatic and woody notes Cons: - Might be too aquatic for some, kinda polarizing - Sillage could be stronger, but it leaves a nice trail If you're into aquatic fragrances, give it a shot! What's your take on it? Use it yourself?

This mobo is great because it has three m.2 SSD slots, built-in wifi, and can have up to 128gb of RAM. For the price it was the best option for my build.

This is the first time that I’ve purchased a Gigabyte motherboard for a PC build. I’ve always used Asus boards because they’ve always been very reliable; however, my last two Asus boards failed. So I decided to try this Gigabyte Aorus motherboard, and its perfect. Fantastic Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth, a plethora of ports, 3 NVMe drive slots, some RGB (that’s not overbearing), a great chipset, and a super smooth and easy to navigate BiOS. 10/10 so far.

I bought this motherboard last month . It's working so excellent with ryzen 7 7800x3D :)))

Got this as a replacement for my current board. Works as intented. Nothing too crazy.

Good Mother Board but must know work arounds for common installation problems. At first would not power up. I played with main power connector and it finally powered up. If using 2 RAM slots, first install one ram stick in the 4th slot, away from CPU. It should post then. After installing Windows, then install the 2nd ram stick in the 2nd slot (for dual channel capability). Then install the Gigabyte Control Center and install the updated drivers. After restarting, then install the 2nd ram stick in the 2nd slot (for dual channel capability). All should be good at this point. I couldn't install the AMD CPU overclocking software because it stated that there is conflict with the AMD graphics driver. The ram is running at a frequency lower than the specification of 6000. Maybe it is running lower because the system is idle? I'll play games tomorrow to learn more about the mother board. I just wanted to share a few suggestions for anyone running into installation problems.

Best VRM’s for the buck while also having over 10 USB ports on the back IO 11 type A ports and 1 USB-C. Not a huge fan of Gigabyte’s BIOS but once you figure that out. The manual that must be obtained from the website is very sparse on info and doesn’t even explain or show all menus. On a side note why don’t motherboard manufacturers not include comprehensive manuals for motherboards? They are much more complex and have many more setting but motherboards from a decade ago had a light novel included with them that went over all settings. No 7 segment display for fish is another strike against this board too. Bios flashback is a plus though. If you can get it for under $200 it’s a good deal.

This is a well designed and put together board. It has everything you need for top tier gaming. With the latest am5 slot and pcie 5 NVME support you can take your gaming to the next level.

It has great compatibility with my parts. All of the connectors are labeled on the board which made it super easy to install

The GIGABYTE B650 AORUS ELITE AX motherboard seems to be a really powerful solution to build a high-performance system with the latest technologies at the first glance. On closer analysis, though, it drops top performance in areas like memory compatibility, which leads to great hassle and disappointment. **Pros** Though lacking in so many ways, the GIGABYTE B650 AORUS ELITE AX still had a few redeeming qualities. It had a sleek design and came with so much connectivity at hand—among them Wi-Fi 6E for fast and stable internet connectivity. The motherboard supports the latest DDR5 RAM and the PCIe 5.0 to future-proof upcoming hardware releases. The BIOS interface is user-friendly, and many settings are available for enthusiasts who like to tinker with their systems. Besides, it has multiple M.2 slots for high-speed NVMe SSDs—a boon for people who want decent storage paired with fast access times. **Cons** Poor memory compatibility—this is the most blatant problem with the GIGABYTE B650 AORUS ELITE AX. Even with RAM on the QVL, users are reporting huge problems booting up when both sticks of RAM are equipped. It continues to this day despite all the trouble-shooting, updating to BIOS, and adjusting settings. The frustration of catering to a malfunctioning system is further aggravated by the feeling that GIGABYTE support comes off as somewhat clueless, so users are on their own in troubleshooting hell. The fact that it cannot support one of the most core requirements of modern systems—reliable dual-channel memory—is unbearable. System performance slows dramatically, and one does not derive the intended benefits from investments in high-speed DDR5 RAM. Having to put up with such compatibility problems wastes time and a lot of effort; this is especially a huge drawback where some users expect fluid performance out of the box on a premium product. **Conclusion** In summary, even though factory-filled with many lovely features, the GIGABYTE B650 AORUS ELITE AX motherboard has critical issues in memory compatibility, making it a really bad board for system builders seeking reliability. The continuous inability to boot dual-channel RAM, even when on the QVL, negates any benefit it might derive. **Will I recommend?** I would not recommend this motherboard at all—GIGABYTE B650 AORUS ELITE AX. For a product at this price tag, the least one would expect is that all its features and compatibility work seamlessly. The incompatibility with memory is quite serious and frustrating. Unless GIGABYTE fixes these very core problems and teaches its support a thing or two about reliability, use some other motherboard that offers better stability and reliability.

It was easy to install on the case with almost no issues, it feel durable and the i/o shield that comes with it helps when adding it to the case. One thing I wish this would include is a manual with more detailed explanation of all connections in the board, i had to watch youtube videos to find out what goes where, even if it already has labels, that would be nice

Super balance on performance super fast and good power distribution

Easy to build in and has plenty of slots on the io. Multiple pcie slots and easy to install. Multiple ports labeled so easy to know where to plug stuff in.

I bought a v2 version off of Amazon did not work so I sent it back and got this one from best buy i got a 15 frame increase at most on certain games i have a 7 7800x3d and a 7900 gre 1440p monitor

Really good motherboard. Easy to assemble into the case and mount the cooler. Intuitive design.

Great motherboard. Works good with ryzen 7700x and 4070 super gpu and 64 mb ram. Got it on sale. Good value for money.
