Review on Gigabyte Digital PCIe4 0 Realtek Motherboard by David Nelson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great board - Bluetooth needs an overhaul

What's good: This mobo looks great and is easy to install. The dual m.2 slots and the thermal syncs that cover them are good and everything is fairly easily accessible. Also comes with an adapter to simplify connecting the tiny power/LED switch and reset connectors. Cons: Requires a BIOS update out of the box. It's easy, and the BIOS interface makes it very easy. Just a little nitty, the board doesn't come with the latest version already installed. Bluetooth keeps crashing. Research suggests this could be due to hardware waking issues, but Gigabyte support seems to be ignoring the issue for now. The only workaround people have found is to flush the capacitors (power off, unplug, wait, then swap). If you're gaming and using a BT controller, you might want to find an alternative to this board or wait for this issue to be resolved. The way their support responds (or not) to an issue can mean a long wait for that question. But overall I really like this mobo. So if built-in Bluetooth support isn't on your wish list, I'd recommend it.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
