Well
Nothing to complain about, the product does the job.
The integrated wifi/bluetooth card works well so far.
I recommend to plug in the processor fan before mounting the card in the case.

Nothing to complain about, the product does the job.
The integrated wifi/bluetooth card works well so far.
I recommend to plug in the processor fan before mounting the card in the case.
This motherboard has a pretty good value for money (I expected nothing less from Aorus), the materials used are very qualitative, the rgb on the side is good to take, too bad there is not more because you can't necessarily see the leds well because of the cables (a good cable management will remedy this perhaps). The card is very nice otherwise, and the presence of WiFi plus an M.2 NVME slot will delight all lovers of speed at start-up, provided that the ssd is compatible. It remains to be seen whether the card will last, although I shouldn't have to worry about it at Aorus.
Advantages :
- Possibility to install a dual fan fan without blocking the RAM.
- The M2 NVMe slot is protected by an unscrewable cover that feels solid and dissipates temperature well.
- An antenna is included with the board for connectivity, with high performance and stable BLE and Wi-Fi throughput.
- The motherboard's bios allows for Ryzen 3 compatibility.
Disadvantages :
- The Gigabyte Bios overclocks my CPU (Ryzen 5 3600) which tends to get hot
- The next generations of Ryzen will probably not be compatible with socket b450 anymore, so the card is not very durable for a possible upgrade.
- The installation of the different components is quite complex (you need to have magic fingers), but I guess that's mainly due to the ITX format.
I would like to thank you for the responsiveness of the after-sales service who exchanged my motherboard following my error on the format of the PCB.
ordered and received quickly works very well even in wifi this motherboard will go in a corsaire 1000D case for a second configuration all in AMD.
This motherboard does the job, I've had it for 6 months now and I'm sure it works (used every day for 7-8h)
I've been using it for 6 months now and I'm very happy with the way it works (I use it every day for 7-8 hours), but when the CPU is under heavy load, I get the coil wine symptom in the power supply (the coils vibrate).
I tested with another PSU (gold) always the same problem, no graphics card because I have a ryzen 5 3400G (integrated graphics).
I also noted another black point: there are only two FAN sockets, 1 more would have been great.
I have been using this card for a few weeks now as a replacement for an ASRock Fatal1ty B450 Gaming-ITX_ac which lasted 6 months.
I have installed a Ryzen 3600 and 2*8GB of RAM at 32000 MHz.
No Bios update needed for compatibility with this CPU.
LED backlighting is useless (hidden by cables).
Cooling for the M2 SSD is welcome.
High quality motherboard, very stable.
Bios update possible with support for the latest Ryzen CPUs.
Easy to install, very complete for a mini-ITX card;
M2 SSD slot protected by an unscrewable cover
Plastic CPU bracket can be unscrewed or not depending on the fan model installed
