Great gaming budget board.

Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2021

Absolutely great product. I have had it set up with R5 3600 for about a week now and can honestly say its leaps and bounds better than the Asrock b450m/ac I swapped it for. If you are looking for a budget gaming board this is probably the best you can get. Just a heads up, this board only supports R5 3600 and up. Anything 2000 or 1000 will not boot. This is not listed anywhere in the description or on the box. But for $200 US for the R5 3600 it's definitely worth it. I'm not going to mention anything about overclocking because every chip is different but I am extremely pleased with this board.

Would not Detect NIC/Ethernet Controller

Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2021

I've installed many, many, Gigabyte motherboards since I've built PCs. Not just Gigabyte motherboards but many different ones.

This is the first time that I've installed a fresh copy of Windows, Installed the Network Drivers and come to find out that it could not detect it.

Luckily I had a spare TP-Link NIC (PCIE) laying around that I was going to use for another project so I could get network connectivity.

After checking many forums and looking around the internet for the issue, apparently its known issue with the board.

This is Revision 2 of this board and there are Network Controller Issues? Other than that the board was fine but disappointing none the less. I don't play on RMAing it as the NIC is probably better and more trustworthy than the onboard NIC. During my forum reading people have lost connectivity when it did work anyways. The BIOS update was suppose to resolve both of these issues, but I never even got it to detect the NIC.

Buyer Beware and at least buy a NIC to go along with this just in case.

Good mid range motherboard

Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2021

Verified Purchase

I recommend this for anyone who wants a mid range build using a 5600x or a 5800x build. Its a good motherboard with enough to get your pc running and offers easy overclocking. Currently using a 5600x in it with a gtx 1080(curse you bitcoin miners) and it runs great with me being able to overclock my cpu, gpu, and ram.

Mid grade b550

Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2020

Pros
Price
1.2 gb lan
Usb bios flashback
Awesome vrms
Good rgb effects
Cons
No on board usb-c
Weird pci-e 16 config
No factory ryzen 5000 support
Out of box
First let me say that price of this b550 is good considering what you get it's one of the best ones now this model is not like the other ones that have usb-c on board no just a header for one in case xfire and sli support along with wifi(don't use just a reason for price hike)also more sata ports so why just go for a x570 or better b550 price vrm quality which is also a plus for this product that's right the reason x570 are hard to find or just out of stock and b550 boards are price the same while in some cases costing more so I got a b550 which will support a r5 thru r9 remember am4 is dead after this year so don't get a r9 expecting your x570 godlike to support ryzen 6000 series one last thing make sure get the right revision for the one you want

I wanted a Motherboard to work with the new Ryzen out of the box and it did just that. No need for a bios update. It is a very nice motherboard. Probably the best one I've had.

Great board for the price

Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2021

Very solid VRMs. Working wonderfully with my 5800x. Detected out of the box, no Q-Flash needed. Easy install, no space issues. Lots of room for cpu fan or AIO mount, but capacitors are something to watch out for. I like the front panel clip, makes connections easy.

Solid Board, Slightly Overpriced

Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2021

Verified Purchase

Pros:
1. This board has excellent VRMs and overclocking abilities. It has 14 Power Phases and a 4-layer PCB.
2. This board looks really modern, it's a all black finish with subtle RGB.
3. This board is great at RAM overclocking as well, as with most Gigabyte AORUS B550 boards.
4. This board has all other things you'd expect from a B550 board, like Resizable BAR, Zen 3 Support, PCIe 4.0, etc...

Cons:
1. The lighting is really subtle, as mentioned above.
2. This board is slightly overpriced, you can get similar quality boards for cheaper.
3. This board lacks any debug lights, which is bad for troubleshooting dysfunctional components.
4. Gigabyte RGB Fusion is mediocre at best.

I purchased this board for about $90 from the Amazon Warehouse Sale and it performs great with my 3700X.
