I bought this board as a replacement for my MSI B650 Pro Wifi I got with the Microcenter 7700x bundle. The old MSI board had very frequent issues with memory crashes in all sorts of games and highly intensive applications. This board was picked right up by windows and all drivers were automatically installed, and I instantly no longer had any issues with any programs anymore. It's like magic. I do like the amount of M.2 slots I have now as well.

Jeder der auf der Suche ist um seine AMD CPU einzusetzen, ist hier genau richtig. Ausreichende Anzahl an Anschlüssen und alles im Lieferumfang was man braucht. Läuft stabil und ohne Probleme.

It's a beautiful motherboard with the aesthetic color I was looking for. Had all the USB ports that I needed in the back and the q flash functionality helped doing a bios flash very easy. Brand new it only took seconds however if you don't know what you're doing leave it for like 5-10 min just in case or leave it to a professional. The chip set was exactly what I needed for my 9800X3D.

Zero issues. I was almost surprised to see my build booting at the first attempt. Did some RAM and CPU adjustments and zero issues either. Used an XMP RAM kit and worked flawlessly at the intended kit speeds. short boot times, plenty of m.2 slots, sata ports, USB ports, RGB connectors, etc. Wifi is great too.Nothing to complain so far.

The GIGABYTE B650 AORUS ELITE AX V2 shines not only for its power and performance but also for the high quality of its electronic components and its impressive aesthetics. Designed specifically to maximize the potential of AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors, this motherboard offers the perfect combination of efficiency, durability, and attractive design, making it a standout choice for any PC build. However, before making a decision, it's important to consider some key aspects:Pro's:* Robust VRM: With a 14+2+1 phase configuration, this board ensures stable and efficient power delivery, making it ideal for overclocking and high-performance processors. It maintains stability even under heavy workloads, preventing issues like overheating or instability.* Support for PCIe 5.0 in M.2: The support for PCIe 5.0 in the M.2 slots provides ultra-fast transfer speeds for next-gen SSDs, drastically reducing load times and enhancing performance in demanding applications like gaming and video editing.* Advanced Connectivity: Equipped with Wi-Fi 6E and 2.5GbE LAN, this model offers fast and stable connectivity, essential for high-demand online gaming and seamless remote work without interruptions.* Exceptional Thermal Efficiency: The design of its heat sinks is outstanding, keeping key components like the VRM and M.2 slots at controlled temperatures, allowing for optimal performance even during long sessions or demanding tasks.* Premium Quality and Aesthetic: This board is not only powerful but also elegant, with a matte black finish and metallic details that give it a modern and robust design. The PCIe and DDR5 slots are reinforced with armor, not only improving durability but also adding a high-end touch to the build. The high-quality electronic components ensure greater longevity and reliable performance over time.Cons:Limited Support for PCIe 5.0 on GPUs: While the M.2 slots support PCIe 5.0, the main slot for the GPU is limited to PCIe 4.0, which may be a drawback for those planning to use a PCIe 5.0 GPU in the future.BIOS Update Required: Depending on the Ryzen processor you use, I strongly recommends to perform a BIOS update to ensure full compatibility and optimize system performance.Conclusion:The GIGABYTE B650 AORUS ELITE AX V2 stands out as one of the best options in its price range. Its exceptional price-to-performance ratio makes it a hard-to-beat alternative for those looking to build a powerful, stable, and durable system, whether for gaming or content creation.While it has some minor limitations, its strengths in connectivity, thermal efficiency, and premium design make it a highly attractive option for hardware enthusiasts and content creators who want top performance without compromising their budget.

As said, this a good quality board, for a great price, and it looks beautiful. The ATX size is taken full advantage of with all the ports. I did have one issue, on first boot with a new cpu, you cannot touch your keyboard until it prompts, and then press y, never delete to get into the bios. Otherwise, you'll just keep shutting it down and trying again, or assuming something is wrong.

This motherboard gave me all types of issues right from the start and unfortunately, I missed the return window with Amazon, waiting on a last part and free time to start on it.First, the light on the motherboard board stayed on that corresponded with a display, graphics card issue and with that, no display. Eventually, it randomly worked after about 3hrs of issue.Then, I finally got into the BIOS and it said that there were no bootable devices. I then flashed an update for the motherboard to the newest update and it still didn't work. I took everything apart and rebuilt the computer and that didn't work. Did research and some people stated that my hard drives might need formatting. Did so and that didn't work.I gave up and finally decided to get an Asus board in June after I started building in April and with all things the same from the previous motherboard, storage and all, the Asus motherboard worked. No issues and I disassembled, built back and had is post, all in 3hrs of work.This is the first product I've purchased to give me this much trouble and regret.

DOA, won't post after BIOS flash and extensive tests with many spare parts. Also the board materials feel cheap. Going back to Asus.Edit: Just received an Asus B650M-PLUS WiFi which is slightly cheaper, well built and it worked like a charm.

I built my first custom PC a month ago using this board with an AMD 9950x cpu. So far it's working great and I'm very happy. The machine itself is very reliable and fast. Updating the bios with a USB was very easy and everything just worked.I did have some trouble getting all 9 of the standoff screws tightened fully (I could really only tighten 8 of them), but that doesn't seem to be affecting anything negatively.
