About the motherboard:

First off, this board is updated to accept the Ryzen chips. Of course, check to be sure your chip will work with this board. I have had Gigabyte boards in a few of my builds, & along with the price, liked the features that come with this board. It’s not a high end board, but it certainly does what it’s supposed to. Airflow is important, & with the other pieces on this build being heaters, I certainly don’t want any blocks or stops, either by the I/O ports, or along the front, up to the CPU. This doesn’t have any of those shields. The board is the important thing in your build, but it doesn’t need to dominate the build. Keep in mind that it has two fan ports. One for the CPU, one for the system. It also has one for your LED lighting if you want that. I have my case fans running, & control them myself (or by a program), but some people may want more. Fit, function & nice. I didn’t have any issues putting the board in, & the I/O face plate is like any other. I Just taped it in place, till I lined everything up, then removed the tape. Screwing the board in place, lined it up & it looks fine. Only maybe twice have I even had one stay on, with the tabs & hooks. There are quite a few USB ports on this board, which is one of the reasons I (again) leaned towards the DS3H. I have it hooked up to a KVM & want one port for each controller. Hooking this up to the case, was easy enough. I did need an extension for the ATX power, as the PSU sits on the bottom of my case. But all of the plugs, & ports are reachable, & work fine. Even the front ports & readers. The bios is easy to get to, & can be done in the traditional way, or via Gigabyte’s great software through Windows. Once in there (it’s on an optical disc) you can adjust fan speeds, lights & the usual bios & tweaking stuff. The disc also has the software for video cards. I only had to check box & get things installed. You can opt for just install stuff, or make paths, & control what goes on your drives. That’s about it. I expect this board to hold up when I expand. The SATA headers are grouped together nicely, just keep in mind where your cards will fit. Some of them may be blocked. I don’t know if using the M2 drive reduces the 1-3 SATA headers, I don’t have any. I do have my hot swap SATA port hooked up on the case, & it’s fine. As always. I expect B&H Photo to have the most up to date & current stock, which is one of the reasons I went with them, for this board. I knew it was going to work out of the box, with out needing any flashing.

II was looking for a budget motherboard with ARGB headers to control my case fans lighting with motherboard and I have came across this . Came in a great packing from Amazon and the box was sealed and no missing parts . The package contains motherboard , 2 sata cables , back panel, 2 antenna for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and some paper work . The required drivers will be downloaded automatically by the gigabytes driver downloading utility . I have paired it with a Ryzen 5 5600G and it worked right out of the box . The board comes with latest bios updated and works out of the box with latest ryzen CPUs. Wifi and Bluetooth have good range and speed . One con I have faced is the Gigabyte ARGB software RGB Fusion . It wasn’t able to detect my ARGB rams and case fans . Tried OpenRGB software , it was able to detect the RGB fans and RAM but wasn’t able to sync properly . Finally I have tried with Signal RGB and everything was perfectly synced . Also the board have 2 ARGB connectors , one at top and one at the bottom . No other issues faced from this motherboard so far . So if you are looking for a budget b450 board with ARGB Sync or WiFi then this is the right choice. Go for it !

Excellent motherboard but be forewarned I was shipped a mb with the very 1st F1 BIOS revision that does not support any AMD Ryzen Zen 2 CPUs so had I ordered a Ryzen 5 3600 like I had wanted I would have been stuck with trying to return the mb t Gigabyte for them to update the BIOS for me, trying to get AMD to load me a supported CPU to update the mb with and return it to them, return the Ryzen 5 3600 and order a supported CPU on the old BIOS.

Well all of that was at least a couple of weeks extra work and wait time and the clock was already ticking on the return window for all the other desktop computer parts I bought and needed to put together and test. Had I other the Ryzen 5 3600 although they said they would do a MB RMA & update or a CPU loaner I had to gather and present documentation to their satisfaction and do it all before the return period expired on my other parts. Not a risk I wanted to take so I bought a AMD Ryzen 7 2700cpu already supported by the mb BIOS.

I have since updated this mb BIOS to version F50a (involved 7 separate BIOS upgrades) and it now supports up to the AMD Ryzen 9 3950X and I’ll but that CPU should they ever get cheap enough.

So, my other complaint is it could have used a 2nd M.2 NVMe SSD slot for two of those rather than just one but otherwise I really like the high tough build quality.

Complete and total rubbishy! Terrible purchase ! Item doesn’t even work!

I buy gigabyte b450m wifi motherboard pair with ryzen 5 5600 processor but display no come only cpu running display no come very bad this seller not mention this fault next what can I do any known solution reply me

Very good product 👍

I used this to build an office rig. Nothing fancy. board turned on and worked. no issues. plenty of option and easy to customize in UEFI. Did not need to get an older AMD proc to update bios, it worked right out of the box with the ryzen 3200. Has wifi which is always a plus and plenty usb ports. looks cool but nothing crazy flashy. all in all seems like a decent board, only time will tell how good it really is.
