Gigabyte Aorus AX370 Gaming 5 review 5

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 03/29/2017 08:57 AM [ 17 comment(s) ]

In this review we check out the Aorus AX370 Gaming 5 from Gigabyte. This motherboard is incredibly nice looking and perhaps a perfect match for your Ryzen series 5 or 7 processor. The X370 motherboard is seated in the high-end Ryzen motherboard spectrum. A motherboard with a black and white design with gorgeous looks and some extras.

A thing that I don't understand is why do Power Consumption test with overclocked processor only with Content Creation, not all tests (video transcoding, 1080p mkv playback, ...)? I think would be nice see the average consumption on more common loads too, not only the more intense scenario.

Your idle and average power consumption will not differ much.

In idle maybe a 5 to 10 Watt difference. Only under high loads the extra power consumption kicks in as you are utilizing and stressing all cores, which need more juice then.

I thought the difference was bigger and more variable.

Thanks.

Really good review. Really surprised how close the performance to the 6950x it gets when OC'ed and only on dual channel RAM. Cannot wait to see quad channel 1:1 performance when it boils down to cpu/mb as the main difference.

Two things I hope to eventually see here would be ram scaling for Ryzen on any of the 8 core cpu while OC'ed at 4 GHZ, and the to pit it up against typical Intel systems all OC'ed with the same RAM.

This what us Gurus usually run and that would be our "norm". I personally don't know that many people who actually do not OC to a typical speed, let alone maxed out. Our office is the only one and those ladies just enter DB all day long.

Perhaps in an update later with better bios to even the playing field.
