With boards like this, WHY does X670 exist?

I can confirm that putting stickers on your case does in fact increase your FPS. I mean just the other day I got an extra 10 FPS by slapping on a sticker from one of the apples I ate. Maybe tomorrow I'll try the sticker from a banana and see what happens.

as i was building my latest setup i noticed that i went back from the roots of my first build, i was using an aorus b450 board with an msi 1660 ti gpu in it and now my latest setup has ended in this exact aorus board and msi suprim gpu after weeks of weeks of contemplating between asus, msi, and gigabyte. hopefully the new generation will give me the satisfaction and joy that both components gave me before.

Banger of a motherboard overview fams. Keep up the hard work

These board prices are stupid. Do you think they will do anything about them with 7000 series not selling well?

Maybe when naming these new boards Gigabyte had a drunk darts game?

This may seem a bit of a newbie question, but how did you get the board's RGB light working when taking cinematic shots of it without plugging in any cables?

Cheers for the coverage mate! Boards a certainly the major factor in Z4's slow uptake comparative to previous. The B550 Master is a heck of a board build wise, so it is good to see that continue. Interesting they have gone back to monolithic VRM blocks with heat pipe from the B550's fin stack array. The 4 NVMe slots is tempting- 1TB G4 NVMes are quite cheap now, so 4x 1TB RAID10 anyone?The lighting effects on the board are a major improvement over B550, but the reeeeaaal burning question is have Gigabyte improved the RGB Fusion software, because that is so bad on the B550 it has me considering going back to ASUS for Z4....

Can you do the Asus Rog Strix B650e-e gaming wifi?

[ThaWoundedFox]

Hi Nick, I have a specific question about the Gigabyte boards that you definitely know. Some boards come with a special cable so you can turn on the RGB lighting when you present the boards (for demo purpose). Like in your videos. My question: does this cable only have a USB connector (5V) or does it come with a power supply? If it comes with a power supply, could you tell me what the output voltage is on the power supply? Thank you.

Wait... 4 NVMe PCI-e 5.0 slots? Won't that kill the main slot for the GPU in terms of sucking needed performance?

As Chef from Shouth Park would say: Tree Fiddy? Tree Fiddy!!! Get outta hea you damn Lock Nes Monsta!

Also, the GPU auto eject lever is a "feature" of the motherboard ;)

If you called them out on it I must have missed it. But I hate this board because of what it could have been. They had to drop all those 5.0 m.2 slots in there and they screwed the x16 gpu slot because of it. Why even got with an "E" board if you have to give up the 5.0 gpu slot which a gamer will utilize before they need 5.0 storage??!?!?? Here's from the mobo page:

* The M2B_CPU and M2C_CPU slots share bandwidth with the PCIEX16 slot. When the M2B_CPU or M2C_CPU slot is populated, the PCIEX16 slot operates at up to x8 mode.

Would love this board but I keep reading about so many black screen problems with it and frankly I don’t fancy taking part in a £400+ lottery.

B650E AM is currently ~$100 less than x670E AM. So I just bought the X670 Elite AX instead ($340 with 10% VAT) which is $100 cheaper than B650E AM.

[FromTheHood]

I'm more like why are the cheapest B650 boards 300+ $.

I paid for Asus Strix B550-E when it came out 220$ and that's a high end B550 board.

sad that you cant test how it handles the new cpus and rams

Nick can you tell me where you get this glorious sign for GS behind you in the opening scene? Id love one for my business man
