The Industry's Leading LAN Static-Electricity & Surge Protection

GIGABYTE motherboards use ICs with up to 3 times the ESD resistance levels compared to traditional ICs. This helps to better protect the motherboard and its components against potential damage caused by static electricity. GIGABYTE motherboards also feature special anti-surge ICs that protect your motherboard, and your PC from any surge in power delivery that may occur, helping to ensure that your PC is equipped to deal with any potentially irregular and inconsistent power delivery.

 

Smart Fan 5

With Smart Fan 5 users can ensure that their gaming PC can maintain its performance while staying cool. Smart Fan 5 allows users to interchange their fan headers to reflect different thermal sensors at different locations on the motherboard. Not only that, with Smart Fan 5 more hybrid fan headers that support both PWM and Voltage mode fans have been introduced to make the motherboard more liquid cooling friendly.

- 5 Temperature Sensors
- 3 Fan Pin Headers
- All Fan Pin Headers Upgraded to Hybrid Fan Headers
- Interoperable Fans and Sensors
- Intuitive UI for Fan Control

 

Fan Stop

Achieve fan silence. With Fan Stop, map any fan to stop completely when temperatures drop below a specified threshold. Which fan stops, based on readings from which sensor, and at what temperature-all of it can be customized to your liking.

 

Hybrid Fan Pin Headers

Assume complete control over your liquid cooling setup! Smart Fan 5 receives up-to-the-second information on flow-rate and water-temperature through the Hybrid Fan Pin Headers or external thermistor sensors-giving you absolute mastery over your PC.

- All Hybrid Fan Headers can automatically detect the type of cooling device whether it be fan or pump with different PWM or Voltage mode.

 

New Smart Fan 5 Software

Choose from different modes, Quiet to Full Speed, to match your system usage preferences.
For each fan or pump, you can use the intuitive fan curve to define trigger thresholds and corresponding fan speeds.

 

RGB FUSION 2.0

With B550 Motherboards, RGB Fusion 2.0 is even better with Addressable LEDs. RGB Fusion 2.0 offers users the option to control onboard RGB and external RGB / Addressable LED light strips* for their PC build. Already feature filled with colors and patterns, RGB Fusion 2.0 are now upgraded to improve the Addressable LED support. With external Addressable LED strips, where each LED is digitally addressable that users can experience even more patterns, styles, and illuminations.

Absolutely nothing to complain about at the price

I paired this with a Ryzen 9 5900x - it's a fantastic value offering, even though it isn't the cheapest Ryzen 5000 compatible board, but compared to the cheapest Intel LGA1200 board for 12th gen i7 or i9 it is a complete steal! It's not the most full featured mobo, but gets the job done, and allows the 5900x to run at it's highest potential. Great board for the money.

For the prices its probably the best you can find

Wanted to switch to amd coz intel upgrades usually means needing a whole new board and this one was well worth it

Installed and working in about 15 minutes

Budgetary option

I had some issue with 5700G CPU, the revision I received is 1.4 and it claimed to support 5700G already.
In reality it did boot up, but I had a few occasions of freeze up or black screen out-of-box with fresh Windows 11.

I had to upgrade BIOS further even tho there is no mentioning of improved CPU support etc, mind the revision of the board you have.
I also had to change a few options based on Google search about "5700G random freeze" and or "5700G black screen"

Moreover, beware do NOT choose PBT courier, I waited for a week while it was sitting at the local depot.

This has everything, layout fits great with the deepcool matrexx55 openings. Comes with 2 sata cables, 1 is a 90 degree end. Heaps of USB, even PS2, built in HDMI, network and bluetooth adapter seem good so far. Stoked with this one!

Excellent entry level motherboard.

Excellent motherboard for general computing, browsing and mid-level gaming. Has a few performance enhancements in the bios menu for overclocking but generally does what you pay for.

Works well, wi-fi paddles a little awkward though

I have long been a fan of Gigabyte ultra durable motherboards; 2 previous computer builds have used them and they are still going strong after many years. The q-flash is handy as I was able to update the BIOS myself before installation following the instructions on the Gigabyte website. I installed an AMD 5600G CPU and it works fine. Love that it has the M.2 drive connectors. Motherboard contains all the features I needed for the modest PC build for a family member. Only slightly awkward thing is the 2 wifi paddle aerials as they can block access to some of the ports on the back and require you to position them at funny angles so the other...view more

The Industry's Leading LAN Static-Electricity & Surge Protection

GIGABYTE motherboards use ICs with up to 3 times the ESD resistance levels compared to traditional ICs. This helps to better protect the motherboard and its components against potential damage caused by static electricity. GIGABYTE motherboards also feature special anti-surge ICs that protect your motherboard, and your PC from any surge in power delivery that may occur, helping to ensure that your PC is equipped to deal with any potentially irregular and inconsistent power delivery.

 

Smart Fan 5

With Smart Fan 5 users can ensure that their gaming PC can maintain its performance while staying cool. Smart Fan 5 allows users to interchange their fan headers to reflect different thermal sensors at different locations on the motherboard. Not only that, with Smart Fan 5 more hybrid fan headers that support both PWM and Voltage mode fans have been introduced to make the motherboard more liquid cooling friendly.

- 5 Temperature Sensors
- 3 Fan Pin Headers
- All Fan Pin Headers Upgraded to Hybrid Fan Headers
- Interoperable Fans and Sensors
- Intuitive UI for Fan Control

 

Fan Stop

Achieve fan silence. With Fan Stop, map any fan to stop completely when temperatures drop below a specified threshold. Which fan stops, based on readings from which sensor, and at what temperature-all of it can be customized to your liking.

 

Hybrid Fan Pin Headers

Assume complete control over your liquid cooling setup! Smart Fan 5 receives up-to-the-second information on flow-rate and water-temperature through the Hybrid Fan Pin Headers or external thermistor sensors-giving you absolute mastery over your PC.

- All Hybrid Fan Headers can automatically detect the type of cooling device whether it be fan or pump with different PWM or Voltage mode.

 

New Smart Fan 5 Software

Choose from different modes, Quiet to Full Speed, to match your system usage preferences.
For each fan or pump, you can use the intuitive fan curve to define trigger thresholds and corresponding fan speeds.

 

RGB FUSION 2.0

With B550 Motherboards, RGB Fusion 2.0 is even better with Addressable LEDs. RGB Fusion 2.0 offers users the option to control onboard RGB and external RGB / Addressable LED light strips* for their PC build. Already feature filled with colors and patterns, RGB Fusion 2.0 are now upgraded to improve the Addressable LED support. With external Addressable LED strips, where each LED is digitally addressable that users can experience even more patterns, styles, and illuminations.

With B550 Motherboards support the external 5V Addressable LED lighting strips and up to 300 LED lights. RGB Fusion 2.0 with Addressable LEDs comes with new patterns and various speed settings with more to come.

* The external RGB LED strips and Addressable LED strips are not included with Motherboard purchase.
