Overview

In the dark, starless night, the falcon strikes fear into the heart of its prey. Even with minimal visibility, the falcon pinpoints its prey and patiently anticipates the perfect moment to swoop in for the kill. The falcon with its laser sharp gaze dominates the darkness of night in the same manner that AORUS Core Lighting illuminates the vast AORUS ecosystem.

*6+6 Phases parallel power design

2X Copper PCB

GIGABYTE's exclusive 2X Copper PCBs design provides sufficient power trace paths between components to handle greater than normal power loads and to remove heat from the critical CPU power delivery area. This is essential to ensure the motherboard is able to handle the increased power loading that is necessary when overclocking.

UNPARALLELED PERFORMANCE

GIGABYTE realize that customer won't stop chasing a better computing performance. We take care of it and implement on products. Protective and optimized memory trace enhance the performance. Faster read and write are needed to save time and improve efficiency. We offer plenty of M.2 storage with thermal guards to ensure unthrottled read and write. In advance, adopting PCIe 4.0 ready components get the B550 motherboards easier to upgrade.

a very good feature packed motherboard

Jacob Dawson

February 2023

The motherboard is great! First, the company delivered everything good and there was no damage at all and it was packaged good. The motherboard for the price is good and supports all ryzen 5th series cpus and didnt need a bios update. If I could add an improvement it would be a couple more fan headers however for the price you cant complain Thank you

Mr Robert Gibbs

August 2022

Great b550 board for the price.

Good board, stable aswell

Carl

January 2021

Fully capable motherboard with newer B550 chipset and hence PIC-E version 4 which I will make use of in the future. Really nice build quality as always. BIOS interface is much improved over the years with Q-Flash needed as BIOS version shipped was F1 and Ryzen 5600x not supported until F10. Very easy with a USB drive. Overclock really simple with manual settings, very happy so far.

very easy to set up a 4000mhz set of ram updating the bios was easy also looks great also

Paul Southall

good bios easy to install

Josh Hodgson

December 2020

Great motherboard, very solid build and lots of connectivity. Few things to note - only 5 fan headers (3x system, 1x CPU, 1x "CPU OPT" but that's useful as a fan too). There are a few RGB and ARGB headers but the build in RGB detailing is VERY dim - through my slightly smoky case window you can barely see it. With a clear case it may be better, but any other RGB will drown it out immediately. It's also good to know that the RAM slots are fairly close to the CPU, so the stock AMD cooler I got with my 3600 covers one slot if you install it the logical way up!
