Brand: GIGABYTE

GIGABYTE B550I AORUS PRO AX Motherboard - AMD B550, Mini-ITX delivers compact performance for modern Ryzen builds and supports the AMD Socket AM4 platform.

This mini-ITX board is built around the AMD B550 chipset and is compatible with AMD Ryzen 3000, 4000 and 5000 series processors, giving you a wide choice of CPUs for gaming, content creation or workstation tasks. The single PCIe 4.0 x16 slot lets you install the latest graphics cards while keeping a small system footprint.

Memory support is robust for a mini-ITX platform, with two DIMM slots supporting dual-channel DDR4 up to 64 GB (32 GB per slot) and high overclocked speeds up to 5300 MHz. Both ECC and non-ECC unbuffered modules are supported, making this board suitable for demanding multitasking and some workstation use cases.

Storage options include two M.2 slots (one with PCIe 4.0 x4 support and one at PCIe 3.0) plus four SATA III ports, allowing up to six drives and RAID 0/1/10 configurations for performance or redundancy. This flexibility suits compact NAS-style builds, fast boot drives plus large bulk storage, or scratch storage for media projects.

Connectivity is a highlight: integrated Wi‑Fi 6E (AMD RZ608), Bluetooth 5.3, and 2.5 GbE LAN (Realtek RTL8125) provide fast networking for online gaming and streaming. The rear panel includes HDMI 2.1 (x2) and DisplayPort 1.4 for up to three displays at resolutions up to 5120 x 2880, making it a good choice for compact multi-monitor setups.

Audio and expansion features are tuned for enthusiasts: Realtek ALC1220‑VB delivers 7.1-channel audio, and the board includes RGB headers (two), dual water‑pump connectors, multiple fan headers and comprehensive power connectors (24‑pin ATX and 8‑pin EPS). BIOS is UEFI AMI with a 128 Mbit EEPROM and system management features such as Clear CMOS and PC health monitoring.

Practical use cases include a high‑performance small form factor gaming PC, a portable streaming rig with Wi‑Fi 6E and HDMI 2.1 outputs, or a compact workstation for video editing using fast NVMe storage. The board ships with antenna, screws and a CR2032 battery, carries a 3‑year warranty, and supports Windows 10/11 x64.
