The advantages of the Gigabyte B450 AORUS M motherboard :


The Gigabyte B450 AORUS M motherboard allows you to assemble a first-class gaming configuration. It has many possibilities to assemble a PC that will allow you to play the latest titles in the best possible conditions.
  • AMD AM4 socket for AMD Ryzen processors (Pinnacle Ridge, Raven Ridge & Summit Ridge)
  • 4 Dual-Channel DDR4 3600 MHz (OC) memory slots
  • 6 SATA 6Gbit/s + 1x M.2 PCIe 4x NVMe / SATA 6 Gbit/s
  • 2 x PCIe 16x ports
  • Smart Fan 5 cooling control with 0 RPM mode
  • Gigabit LAN networking with cFosSpeed Internet Accelerator Software
  • 2 RGB LED connectors with RGB Fusion support


Control your cooling performance

With Smart Fan 5, control your PC with finesse. Smart Fan 5 allows you to manage the fan connectors through the different connectors on the PCB. Smart Fan 5 is compatible with PWM fans for optimal management of liquid cooling systems.
  • Hybrid Fan Connectors detect whether the cooling system is using PWM or Voltage mode and adjust accordingly.
  • Over-voltage protection for optimal management of high-end fan systems
  • 0 RPM mode

Finally, theBIOS interface has been redesigned to offer a number of innovations similar to those of the Smart Fan 5 UI: active stages according to temperature scenarios, definition of ventilation curves, reduction of noise pollution following sudden temperature changes... all this without leaving Windows!

    Update of the bios

    Quite surprised to see a bios update too recent v P60; error signal on startup and no image if plugged into CM sockets. No problems with graphics cards on PCIe. Processor ryzen 3 1200, DDR 2133.
    CM not compatible with win 11 and difficulties with the latest versions of win 10. Numerous bios update versions are available but beware.

    Compatibility

    Lack of compatibility information with a last generation ryzen for vindows8.1 but only supported from windows10 and a priori can't mount anything else the card receiving only AMD despite the intervention with technicians .

    Good map

    I bought this card to make a home NAS with FreeNas.
    With an AMD Ryzen 3 3200G Wraith Stealth Edition and Noctua NH-L9a-AM4 Chromax.
    The advantage is that there is no need for a video card (GPU of the proc) for my use it is perfect.
    It has 4 RAM ports, 1 M2 port and 6 SATA 3 ports.
    Except that if you use the M2 port you lose SATA ports (3 less ports with a M2 Sata).
    So I installed the OS on an M2 and added 2 SATA 3 cards plus a 4 port RJ45 network card.
    Everything is perfectly recognized on FreeNas. I'm still happy with my purchase.
    Otherwise it's nice too.

    Well received and works as expected

    The motherboard is top-notch, up to standard and complies with the information given in the product sheet, works immediately after installation (including LED debugging if there are any problems). I was able to plug in all the connectivity, processor, RAM, SSD and a large graphics card without any problem.
    The packaging was also decent, nothing to say although the delivery took quite some time.
    Be careful to have a tower that supports large motherboards.

    Good motherboard

    Good motherboard coupled with a ryzen 7 3700x processor and the bios update is perfect the only negative is the 2 unique fan sockets which forced me to get a fan hub to connect all the fans.
    The big plus of this card is the integrated heatsink for the ssd m.2

    Good product

    I'm not sure what to do with it, but it's a good product.
    I'm not sure if it's a good idea to add an extra FAN connector because 2 are a bit too light, the PCI x16 is a bit too close to the proco but it's micro ATX.
    I'm happy with my purchase!

    Good product but....

    I bought a motherboard by default because the MSI boards I was looking at were all out of stock.I regret my choice a little because if this board is well made with a recent chipset I have encountered some problems with its operation. I have to say that I regret my choice because even though this card is well made with a recent chipset, I have encountered some problems. Some BIOS functions such as the management of the processor speed variation remain blocked on "auto" and inaccessible for modification. The management software under Windows does not work. The processor (2.2 to 2.6 GHZ) remains stuck at 2.4 whatever the load.moreover the memory (2666) was detected at 2133, problem solved after call to the technical service.finally the video dvi socket is not eligible for an adapter, video card required.
