Great quality, did not expect at all for the price.

When connecting m2, first deal with the bolts, and then glue the radiator from the motherboard. No, you won’t need additional bolts from the bags, this is for the second m2 and the installed m2 Wi-Fi for which there are wires, there are bolts, but there is no connector. USB 3.2 connector would be at 45 degrees.

Pros
  • Without manipulation, the I5 11400F keeps the turbo boost above AsRock. Two connectors for each type of backlight RGB, ARGB and the ability to turn them on together. Out of the box bios F8. Reinforced pci-e video card. The BIOS sees the connected turntables on a hot one and in the same place allows you to adjust with readings. Solid textolite.
Cons
  • The absence of at least one bluetooth or wi-fi for a motherboard of this magnitude. In a not very good place, they placed the argb backlight of the motherboard itself, it was in the corner under the sat Do not agree to install a branded program. Nowhere will he ask and install the Norton antivirus, which will spoil after himself. Rzhachno of course he turned everything on after uninstalling the autoload. Boot menu did not understand at all. A tab in the bios is ok, but a separate one .

Good product, not disappointed.

Do not trust the indicated parameters, check on the manufacturer's websites ! Here the parameters are driven in by delegates salesmen !

Pros
  • Great board, best for the money
Cons
  • Written support for pci-e 3.0 for video cards! And in fact 4.0, which is excellent, but does not change the fact that an error in specifying the parameters will set the buyer up, he could have taken a better video! And now you have to change, by selling the existing one and buying a new one, the loss of money, the same with the ssd drive !

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

Gigabyte B560M Aorus Elite is one of the most "combat" and truly "evil" motherboards. This model has a powerful and high-quality VRM with good cooling, which allows the 8-core Rocket Lake to work at full capacity and without performance loss. And also this board works most delicately with the power of the central processor and overclocks the memory well. The advantages of the B560M Aorus Elite also include a large number of USB connectors on the rear panel. Wireless Wi-Fi is the only thing this

Pros
  • I went through the whole Internet and all forums. This motherboard has no equal in its price range. And if you take it with bonuses like mine, it came out for only 6 thousand.

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

The impression of the board is very positive, although I had to tinker with the installation, firmware and configuration, at some point I didn’t see the old win10 on the SSD and refused to start it, everything was decided with a couple of movements in the BIOS and the system started from 1 time, activated with the old key and that’s all Great. I thought about taking Asus tuf, but I’ve been sitting on GIGABYTE motherboards for a long time and so far there were no jambs, it’s a pity that you…

Pros
  • quality board there is cooling on m2 bios got better memory overclocking normal price
Cons
  • raw version of bios f1 (prepare a flash drive with f4 bios version pre-written on it) because of which my ssd m2 was not visible cooling on m2 interferes with the installation of a deepcool gammaxx 200t radiator on the processor, but this is a trifle, you just need to install the radiator first and only then fix the m2

It was a reasonable purchase, I will order more.

Like many users of this mother, I encountered a problem with the interaction with the video card (Gtx 1070). 5 short beeps and black screen. After turning off the vidyuhi, it started up from some time, changed 3 points in the BIOS, now everything is ok (fast boot on, VGA - auto, csm support on. I don’t know how it will backfire in the future, but so far everything is ok. I sat without a PC for 4 days while dealing with the problem.

Pros
  • Great set of features at a decent price. Radiators, BIOS in 2022.
Cons
  • Didn't start out of the box.

An ideal product for any type of consumer.

I took it in one store with the letter D, for 8990. I don’t know where such prices on the market come from, horse ones. Some pros: I installed it without any problems, installed 11400F, screwed the tower, BL2K8G32C16U4W memory, put it immediately in the profile for 3200, everything started up without any buts. Its cons: Bios from the F3 box, needs ating. As the gigabytes themselves say, it is strictly not recommended to under Windows. To be honest, it became pointless for me, and ating through…

The right product for me, the price suited me.

In total, it remains only to solve the issue of cooling (for the i5-11400, this is a tap of 80-125 watts, not 65 as indicated in the specification), as well as to solve the issue of choosing a motherboard, and take into account that the motherboard will work at an increased load in terms of processor power supply. With coolers, everything is simple. It is more complicated with the motherboard: There is a PCB backside indicator - this is the temperature of the elements supplying power to the…

Pros
  • Beautiful logo at launch. Everything started without problems, there are no limits, the frequency is almost 4400. I have not tried to overclock the memory and load it yet, I will add it later. For the 11th generation of Rocket Lake, you need to carefully choose motherboards according to two criteria - the ability to keep the processor at maximum frequencies, the ability to power it, and the ability to successfully remove the resulting heat (TDP). For example, there is an i5-11600K, it has a base 3.90, a maximum of 4.9. Unlock and gives him 3.9 base. And there is an i5-11400, it has a base 2.60 GHz, a maximum of 4.40. The base differs greatly, and the maximum differs slightly. The main difference between the two is that the i5-11400 is choked with a TDP of 65 watts. Not by blocking the multiplier, but by the thermal package. Previously, Intel blocked the multiplier in the processor itself and there was nothing to be done. But over time, a turbo boost appeared, which, under load, increases the frequency. Because of the turbo boost, Intel can no longer just lock the multiplier, because then they will immediately lose the competition. And they did it through a thermal pack. But here, because of competition, I had to make a 560 chipset that allows you to drive memory, and at the same time, or through an oversight, they allowed to remove restrictions on the thermal package, but they didn’t take into account that it was within the limits of the thermal package that the pricing policy for processors was determined in terms of more expensive/cheaper. As a result, it turned out that with a huge difference in price, the same difference in performance will be only if this thermal package is observed. If you do not comply with it, then due to the technology of temporarily increasing the frequency under load (turbo boost, which is controlled only by the thermal package, which, as it turned out now, can be changed and not observed), you can increase the frequency by a constant and get a constant level performance on the younger model older model. Continuation to comment.
Cons
  • Naturally, all gigabyte software is crooked and outdated: 1. RGB fusion (for backlight control) has a terrible interface from 2022. It also works badly, for example, mode one was called "backlighting by music", although in reality, as the color shimmered, it continues in essence. "Highlight on games" contains only two games, CSGO and some other little-known. For example, a jamb - in the program you can put that after the computer falls asleep, the backlight continues to shine. However, if you set the backlight mode to DigitalD, then when you fall asleep, the backlight will turn off. Like trifles, but enrage. I don’t know about others, maybe all manufacturers are like that. But I have high requirements for software. 2. After installing all the progs from the manufacturer, the window with the game began to lose focus, now I deleted everything (the problem has disappeared) and put it one by one until the problem appears again. But also a bug.
