Easy install & setup.

La he instalado de forma rápida y fácil, bastante refrigerado el diseño, yo la ocupo todo al menos 15 hrs diarias, no soy gamer. Le agregue un AMD 5600gt, no hubo necesidad de actualizar el BIOS, lo detecto inmediatamente, 2 módulos de 16gb, 1 NVme de 512 gb que con los disipadores que trae incluida la tarjeta madre alcanza temperaturas de 29 grados centígrados. por cierto estaba casi 900 pesos mas barata que en ML.

This board is working good now but had few issues at first. Want to go over these as it may help someone installing windows 11. We used windows 11 pro so tpm had to be enabled in bios before it would load. After, windows 11 installed fine but would blue screen when the computer was at idle. Enabling dummy load in bios fixed this issue. next problem was usb ports were disconnecting during gaming (rdr2). Uninstalling all the drivers that we installed from the gigabyte support site fixed the usb disconnect issue. If you install windows 11 on this mb just use the drivers windows 11 installs and give that a try first.. I gave it 4 stars due to the issue of Gigabyte’s RGB fusion interfering with the corsair ram rgb lighting after xmp profile in bios was enabled. However icue worked fine with the corsair h150i aio and the extra corsair fans we installed.
System details:
Gigabyte aorus pro ac
Evga 1000w gt psu
ryzen 9 5900x
corsair 3600 mhz rgb white ram
2tb samsung 980 pro m2
corsair h150i white
3 corsair LL series 120 mm fans
2080 super
razor mouse
evga keyboard
Edit: after a corsair firmware update we have got the ram leds working properly. Putting a star back to my review. Also the gigabyte rgb fusion software is working properly as well now.
One year update: After a bios update to F15 all the issues have been resolved. Don’t need the dummy load enabled, tpm is enabled by default now and pcie 4 works for gpu, It just works, this is a good board.

Bought this from amazon warehouse used with like new condition for 152 dollars. The package I received had the box still sealed without even a dent in the box. The board was completely sealed in its anti static bag and all the parts were still sealed too. It was basically a brand new board but I saved 60 dollars.
RYZEN 5000 OWNERS PLEASE READ: You will need to update the bios to get it to boot into windows. I was able to boot into bios with my 5600x on bios f2 but it detected my cpu at 0 mhz and wouldn’t boot into windows. I went to the website and downloaded the newest bios which was f13 I think and put it on a flash drive then plugged into the pc and booted into bios and flashed the updated bios. You can also use the q flash feature to flash it without a cpu or ram installed. If you were able to get into bios with a 5000 series board and figured it had its bios updated so you were fine, but then windows wouldn’t load up, just update the bios and it will fix the issues.
Great board with great expansion. There are 8 fan headers so you can plug in as many fans or pumps as you desire. Multiple rgb headers of both 5v addressable and 12v rgb. The VRM’s are outstanding. With finned heat sinks to boot. This can handle a 5950x no problem. Product page says it can support up to 5100mhz xmp ram. The only thing its missing is an internal usb c header if your case has a front usb c port you wont be able to wire it up to the motherboard.
its a B550 board you get pcie gen 4 to the top 16x pcie slot and pcie gen 4 to the top 4x nvme slot. Also comes with two nvme heat sinks to put on ur m2 drives. The rest of the pcie slots and second nvme run off the chipset at gen 3 speeds. If you need all the ports to be gen 4 then go x570. But for most people this is perfect. The top pcie slot is reinforced steel and looks great.
The led lighting on the top of the heat spreader/io shield combo is subtle and good looking. It comes in a default orange, but can be changed. It does stay on when the computer is off but can be configured to turn off.
Lastly it also comes with a little block that plugs into the front panel header port. I was able to take the little block and plug all my little power, reset, drive activity and led lights into the block, and then just plugged the block into the front panel port. Made it much easier to install those finicky power and reset leads. I am a big fan of this as it makes everything plug n play and makes it so someone like me who never has installed a motherboard before, and was able to get it all correct on my first try. Pro tip if you have a cramped case plug in the 8 pin eps power before fully screwing in the board, OR before installing a tower heat sink. I had to wedge my hand in there to get it after I installed the board and sliced my knuckle pretty bad. Other than that its a pleasure to work with.
Has a great UEFI bios with great control and adjustability of the fans you have plugged in. Can set fan curves from preset ones or make your own fan curve. There are many over clocking settings you can play around with such as voltages and cpu multiplier ratios. A+ Board that even Buildzoid from the channel Actual Hardcore Overclocking approves. So just know this will not hold back any cpu you install in it and will be able to overclock with the best of them.

The goods:
1. Back panel shield is integrated to the board! Handy!
2. Backside (the other side that CPU and RAM mounts) has protective plate! Even better!
3. RAM slot is 2 latch model. Much easier to install than ASUS B550I!
4. ITX board! Yet has 2 chassis fan controllers there.
Bads:
1. Accessories are a bit lacking. But who installs multiple SATA drives these days? Especially on ITX builds?
2. VRM Heat sinks are too thick. Be Quiet! Shadow Rock LP does not fit unless your memory module has low height. Gigabyte B450I was able to accept the cooler with VRM covering orientation.
–> Some cases may have problem if you wish to install 240 AIO radiator on the top ventilation set up.
3. Outer chunk of the front side M.2 SSD heat sink is not really functional. Additional thermal tape would be needed for it to be actually functional. This is very nice chunky metal piece.
4. No front side USB-C type connector. Not a problem if your case do not have USB-C port anyway. But it could be a bummer for some cases.
5. No dedicated PWM port for AIO cooler pump control.
6. No AURA 5V RGB sync header… but this isn’t an ASUS board.
Remarks
1. Mine came with 2022 BIOS. But Gigabyte have most recent 2023 bios on their product web site.
2. Board title appears perfectly on Linux! Did not expect this!
3. No WiFi/Bluetooth instability yet. Pop! OS 22.04. Kernel 6.2
4. One of the chassis PWM connector is rather very small JST type small pin socket rather than typical 4 pin connector. You have to use the converter cable that comes with the board.

The Gigabyte B550I Aorus Pro AX is one of the most affordable B550 ITX motherboards on the market at the time of this review, yet it is also extremely solid with all the latest features that an enthusiast may want in an ITX motherboard.
Pros:
For myself personally, the reasons for choosing this motherboard or a B550 board in general, is to have better/sooner support for the Ryzen 5000 series, along with things like PCIe 4.0, USB 3.2, and 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet. This board also features a very handy Q-Flash feature for flashing the BIOS without having anything aside from a power supply and a USB stick, so no need to worry about having a Ryzen 3000 series chip on-hand to flash the latest BIOS. The board also features a backplate that really makes it feel like a properly premium and sturdy product. Compared to its X570 sibling, this board is around $30 less expensive but does not lack anything notable in my opinion, aside from the M.2 slot on the back of the board being PCIe 3.0 whereas the X570 version has PCIe 4.0 on both M.2 slots. The B550 also does not have a chipset cooling fan, which to me is an advantage over the X570 because it eliminates a potential source of noise and premature failure.
It’s also worth noting that the chipset fan on the X570 version takes up one of the 3 fan headers, whereas all 3 headers on this board are usable. The X570 version also appears to only have USB 3.1 Gen 2 and 1.0 Gigabit Ethernet.
Cons:
This board does not have any provisions for front panel USB-C ports, so beware if your case features any USB-C ports that will need to be connected to the motherboard. Officially, the B550 chipset only supports Ryzen 3000 series out of the box, with Ryzen 5000 support enabled via a BIOS update. On the other hand, the X570 version will support Ryzen 2000 series as well, so in that regard the B550 board does lack a bit of flexibility.
Additional Notes:
I picked up this motherboard with the intention of using it with a Ryzen 5000 series chip when I get around to buying one sometime next year. The reason for buying this board now is mainly because availability for this board has been very inconsistent until recently, so I figured it would be wise to buy one while it’s readily available. I’m currently using a Ryzen 2700X which isn’t officially supported by the B550 chipset, so I was originally going to leave this board on the shelf until I got a Ryzen 5000 series CPU.
I saw a few reports of people getting 2000 series CPUs to work in B550 boards, though they were few and far in between. However, I was going to go ahead and flash this board to BIOS version F10 to enable Ryzen 5000 support, so I thought it wouldn’t hurt to check if my 2700X will post in this board while I’m at it. The board was probably preloaded with the F1 or F2 BIOS out of the box, and I got nothing but a black screen when I tried to boot. However, after flashing to the F10 BIOS, I was massively surprised to see that it was able to post, and everything seemed to function normally in the BIOS. I proceeded to go a step further and installed my boot drive to see if it will boot into Windows, and I couldn’t quite believe my eyes when it reached desktop without any noticeable issues, and without reinstalling Windows or any of the drivers.
Fast forward to today, and I’m running the F11b BIOS from October 19 with “additional optimizations” for Ryzen 5000 series, which actually enabled XMP for me, something that wasn’t working on the F10 BIOS. I have now reinstalled Windows and have been fine-tuning all the details without any problems whatsoever. I couldn’t be any happier with this board, everything from its features and construction to the unexpected support for older chips like mine. I would also like to add that the F10 BIOS which enabled Ryzen 5000 support was released on September 18, before the Ryzen 5000 series was even announced. I don’t see how Gigabyte could possibly have been further ahead of the curve when it comes to product support, and they have done a truly excellent job with this board.
