Review on 💻 GIGABYTE B550I AORUS PRO AX Gaming Motherboard - AM4 AMD/B550/Mini-ITX/Dual M.2/SATA 6Gb/s/USB 3.2 Gen 1/WiFi 6/2.5 GbE LAN/PCIe 4.0/Realtek ALC1220-Vb/DisplayPort 1.4/2xHDMI 2.0B/RGB Fusion 2.0/DDR4 by Matt Tebow

If you don't plan on ever opening the BIOS, don't worry about this board! After specifically selecting RAM based on compatibility listed on Gigabyte's website, I tried changing the speed from the automatically selected 2100 to the nominal 3200. This single change caused the board to stop working. That in and of itself is all, that's what clears the CMOS, isn't it? On this board, the only available jumpers on the board do NOT work! AGAIN THE CMOS JUMPER WILL NOT RESET THE CMOS SETTINGS. Okay, just remove the CMOS battery, typical computer stuff, right? Well, unfortunately the CMOS battery is UNDER THE IO SHIELD ON THE BACK OF THE MOTHERBOARD ON THE ITX BOARD. To remove it, a complete disassembly of the circuit board is required. I can't believe a company of this caliber could mess things up like that. I don't overclock, I try to use the board according to the specs on their website and in their manual. I'm not going to take it out of the system, troubleshoot, and start the whole build process again just to take it apart again when I want to change RAM timings. If you plan to tweak something in the BIOS, LOOK ELSEWHERE. I am currently processing my return and am planning to purchase ASUS or even ASROCK for now. Also, I haven't seen anyone on the net that has successfully used the CMOS jumper. Really pathetic work
