Gigabyte to release Mini ITX Form factor B450 Motherboard (B450i AORUS PRO WIFI)

Gigabyte to release Mini ITX Form factor B450 Motherboard (B450i AORUS PRO WIFI)

Gigabyte will soon release a Mini ITX B450 motherboard, the very popular 17x17 form factor format motherboard is called the B450 I AORUS Pro WIFI. 

The cute, and the quite frankly great looking motherboard is based on a 4+2 phase design, two phases apparently are reserved for a possible onboard graphics chip (APU). BTW look at the VRM area cooling heatsink, it's been a thing that Gigabyte has been giving attention, nice to see. You'll spot 802.11ac wifi. Fun fact, if you'd pop in a Ryzen PRO proc, ECC ram memory is on your reach as well. Audio is covered by an ALC1220-VB. 

 

The board can house one 2280 M2 SSD which is covered by a thermal shield, it has four SATA connectors. You will get two USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports on the back, together with four USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports. Of course, the usual RGB connectivity is present as well.

We've just received a sample, the photos below are shot in-house

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Not all people find the Asus board to be superior to the Gigabyte board and i am quessing this is cheaper, because most B450 are compaired to X470.
Personally i dont like Asus boards, so that is reason enough for me, to not pick the X470 Asus mini ITX.

it is about freaking time.
Asus has been ripping off the market with (vastly) overpriced B450 and x470 itx boards.
and as a B450 4 phases are fine for 2nd gen. overclocking
what i appreciate about the Gigabyte boards is they don't rake you over the coals for wifi connectivity...unlike MSI and Asus.
not so crazy about thinner boards and specs that change from launch to shipping, but this is a price-point monster.
i'm definitely going to buy one.
