Probably this is one of the nicest B550 Chipset based motherboards we review, the Mini-ITX based B550i Aorus PRO AX, at 17x17cm Gigabyte loaded this B550 motherboard with downright amazing features including dual M2 slots, 2.5 GigE Ethernet, AX WIFI and a great design for VRM. Well, simply put it's nearly a mega motherboard at a mini size.

What is the little hole on the back panel? Is it a clear CMOS button?

I'm toying with the idea of buying a 12C/24T or 16C/32T Zen 3 CPU after the launch of the 4000 series Ryzen. Want to build a SFF gaming rig and this board looks great for my 3900X, I can then use my Aorus Xtreme for a Ryzen 3 CPU.....just hope that when the board does land here in my neck of the woods, that the local distributor does not jack up the price too much. This and Big NAVI/Ampere would be my last hurrah as I don't think I'd looking to upgrade anything else, getting kinda old to be constantly upgrading my PC's, money's best used elsewhere....like food.
