La verdad el paquete venía abierto y no se desde el principio de me hizo raro y no jalo y nos dimos cuenta que venía con unos pines raros pero no le tomamos importancia pero no jalo la verdad dinero desperdiciado(Actualización) Según la paquetería ya entrego el producto hace 10 días y me marca que el reembolso no puede proceder hasta que reciban el producto pero la paquetería dice que ya fue entregado, honestamente me siento estafado

It took a lot of tinkering with the bios and windows settings to get it's onboard wifi to work, and I still havent figured out the random power-outages.

This is probably by-far the best motherboard I have ever owned.I love the way this looks; its clean and has very minimalistic design. When I bought this motherboard I didn't realize that it came with a built in GPU. I now have two GPUS and this thing is a beast!Now, the instructions aren't clear; but yet bland. If you were new to building computers I'd say you would have a difficult time setting up and building it. But I've messed around with motherboards before and I found my way around.Loading speeds on the other hand are fantastic! Loads into windows within matter of seconds with my AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D.The one thing that I hate the most is the USB 3.0 Header. The way that its positioned is terrible and could've been positioned/built better. When I was building it; I bent the pins, and had to bend them back.Overall, It's a good motherboard for AM5 chips and it does have a 5 year warranty included which is a bonus.

Overral it works good.It has bluetooth integrated.Also there is a bonus anthena that probably saved 30 dollars for me.The drivers are super easy to install: you just click "yes" to install gigabyte app and then it downloads and updates everything with just one button click.(you don't need to search for them in the internet or use flash/optical drive for that)Minuses:There are no spare screws for ssd nvme. (only 3 for 3 spots)The startup is loud. (very loud comparing to the old one)The red light for ram turns on for every startup (but only for 3 sec)Ram is a little bit harder to install (I had very old motherbroad for 50 and had same problem on it, but this one cost a lot and the intallation is worse that on the motherbroad for 100)

AM5 boards had a rough introduction, but now that it's later in the Zen 4 cycle it's pretty safe to say the early teething problems are solved. I am delighted by how totally solid and feature-laden this board is, and it proves why I've been buying Gigabyte boards over and over again for decades without regret. The whole thing is just slathered in thoughtful design that makes perfect sense.There's one full PCIe x16 slot, with all channels available. The other slots can fit a full x16 board (like if you wanted to add more video cards or a Tesla card or something), but the lanes will be automatically bifurcated as you do so.There are four memory slots and the board can accommodate up to 128GB of memory. Be aware, however, that Zen 4 memory controllers have some limitations of how fast they can go when you start filling up more memory channels. You can run two slots at 6000+ MT/s, no problem — and it's easy to hop into the BIOS and enable that — but when you populate another two slots... things are going to slow down. Even the massively overpowered 7900-series is likely to only be able to run all 4 slots at 3600MT/s. Maybe 4800 if you're lucky, but don't count on it.There are THREE, count em, THREE, M.2 NVMe slots for storage. The first two, upper ones, are faster and connected to more of the PCIe lanes. The third one, should you choose to use it, is slower, and only has 2 lanes available to it. If you're planning to add a big-ass but inexpensive lower spec SSD, put it in the lower slot and reserve the upper slots for your main disks.The CPU slot comes with a bracket, and it's fine for most standard coolers. If you're using a tower type cooler like a Noctua chromax, you'll have to change out the bracket. It's easy to do, just a few screws on the back of the board.The CPU power plug, like almost every board, is in the annoyingly inconvenient spot in the upper left. Remember to hook it up before you screw the board in, so you don't have to try to jam your hand into the worst possible place in the case. The ATX main board power is along the upper edge and a little easier to get to.Speaking of plugs, this thing is just FESTOONED with front and back panel plugs. I'm an avid user of front panel stuff, and I was very happy to see how generous the front panel plug situation is. Of course, the usual old-school front panel controls—power, reset, lights—are the old school annoying single-Dupont jumper wire type. They're as annoying as ever to hook up, and along the lower edge. However, they are clearly labeled, silkscreened, and even color-coded.About that back panel, though: I don't care about WiFi on a stationary desktop. The Ethernet plug is *right there* on the back panel. But I do want to use the Bluetooth. However, in order to use this board's Bluetooth capabilities, you have to hook up the antenna thing. I'm happy to report that while I didn't really *want* to do this, it was easy to do—just two of those micro coaxial cables—and the antenna even has a magnetic base to keep it from flopping all over the place. The Bluetooth works great, and that's kind of a miracle. Most Bluetooth chips are terrible.Remember how I mentioned the BIOS is easy to set up? It's also incredibly deep. You can get down and dirty, with a level of granularity and setting that is just beautiful. This is, truly, a top-tier overclocker's board. But even if you aren't going to get into that, you want to pop in there and do a couple of things:First, update the BIOS. Usually, it's not worth bothering to do this. 99% of BIOS updates in the world don't fix anything for anyone or are only for specific weird configurations. In this case, it's not true. YOU WANT TO UPDATE. In the AM5 world, BIOS updates come with real, useful, upgrades to performance and stability that everyday users can enjoy, and this board needs the new one. Why? The new one makes it faster, literally just faster and better, when you use DDR5-6000 or more.Second, set the "EXPO 1" profile for your memory. The default is kind of a "safe mode" thing which works, but totally wastes the actual speed of the memory you bought.Third, set Precision Boost Overdrive to "80 Level 2". Unless you bought a CPU cooler upgrade, then set it to "90 Level 2." The first number is the target temp it's going to run, and the second number is how much it will reduce the voltage of your CPU. "2" is pretty much the guaranteed recommended setup.Now, reboot and enjoy your AWESOME new Gigabyte board.

Complete garbage motherboard. My brother who has over 15 year industry IT knowledge and has built and serviced hundreds of computers was disgusted by this board.1. There is no actual instruction manual just a pathetic 4 page fold out brochure. We had to go to the gigabyte website to get an actual usable manual.2. Nothing but issues once system is built. It simply would not boot into bios. We had to remove internal power battery and discharge it to even boot.3. As stated it wouldn’t boot. Another issue that stopped it booting was that it simply would not start if a second RAM slot was in use. Reducing it to 1 being used allowed us to finally boot it. It was then a struggle to get everything installed and once we finally managed it we tried installing the 2nd RAM module again and the board would just not work.DO NOT BUY this board it’s got multiple flaws and these are documented by several buyers of the item.I had to return this item AND pay for postage which cost my £7. Terrible purchase.Bought an ASUS gaming board as replacement and this board was 100 times better to install and work with.

Tried 5 different wifi drivers from any of the ones available (starting with the ones told by the manual) and still get lag spikes and packet loss that are 100% related to this driver/hardware. I work off a laptop less than a foot away from the antenna and never have any issues. Also the fact they are not preinstalled is annoying to boot.

- The motherboard is honestly really good, all the cable connectors are in nice places, the BIOS is rather nice and simple, lots of storage and connectivity options, including fans and PCI-E slots.The motherboard is amazing at it's price, however it does have some booting problems AT THE FIRST BOOT, after the first boot, there is no issues with the motherboard ( so far ).> By bootability, I believe it has issues with the DDR5 Ram Training process, I think it takes too long with it, or doesn't do it at all, so after you install your ram, do not move it places after it boots. Or you'll have to go trough this again. You will likely have to go trough this again if you end up purchasing more ram and install it.> The way I fixed this issue was by putting the ram sticks where I wanted them, left the computer on for 5 minutes, then turned it off, removed the A1 Ram stick, left A2 on, turned it on again, and it booted,then after I was at windows, while the computer was on, I installed the A1 ram stick again, then restarted, went into bios, applied settings, restarted again and this seemed to do the trick for me. Haven't had any issues with booting again.Other then that issue, I love this motherboard, cable management and speeds on it are great. It has a nice manual, although I wish it has more info on the 12V1 power connector.

Finished building the PC with no problem.For context, mine is rev 1.3 for an AMD 7600x chip. The WiFi does not work out of the box, so i have to bypass login at windows install with /oobe, but once I done that, I just used usb to copy the WLAN driver provided by the manufactures and everything works. I game on wifi exclusively and it has not failed me. Some usb ports on the io doesn't work initially, but just magically fixed itself 2 days later.Has plenty of slots for upgrade down the line and is just a nice experience to work with.

It was reasonably easy to install everything for a first time builder like me. My board was rev 1.3 and I had to find the appropriate manual online as it didn’t come with it. After connecting all the cables that came with my case, my pc booted up first try without any issues. The boot time following that was maybe 30 seconds, very quick and convenient! Recommend.

Worked perfectly with my 7600 out of the box. My board is revision 1.3 which means the first m.2 is gen 5 now. The other two m.2's are gen 4 and all have heat sinks. Nice build quality throughout. Absolutely zero coil whine. Post LED's. Excellent board temperatures. Gskill 6000 cl30 ddr5 with expo enabled boots in 17 seconds. What more could you want?
