Gigabyte B850M AORUS ELITE WIFI6E ICE

Compact and well-equipped micro-ATX board with a B850 chipset, designed for builds with modern Ryzen processors while maintaining a balance between functionality, price, and format. The model is part of the AORUS ELITE lineup, which focuses on quality components, stability under load, and up-to-date connectivity technologies. The board's design is in the silvery-white ICE color scheme—an excellent choice for builds in light cases.

In addition to the visual accent, there are practical conveniences: a pre-installed I/O shield, updated BIOS interface, convenient port layout, and advanced settings in the proprietary EasyTune utility. Despite its compact size, the Gigabyte B850M AORUS ELITE WIFI6E ICE structure doesn't seem cut down. The board features a 12+2+1 phase power subsystem with massive heatsinks, designed for stable operation with multi-core CPUs, including the Ryzen 9.

Unlike most micro-ATX format boards, it is equipped with four full-fledged memory slots. The system can accommodate up to 256 GB of RAM with a maximum clock frequency of 8200 MHz. Plus, there's support for XMP and EXPO, which allow the user to easily increase memory frequency without the need to manually change timings and voltage. Notably, it supports Wi-Fi 6E, providing high-speed wireless connectivity, as well as a wired network through a gigabit LAN controller from Realtek. The M.2 PCI-E 5.0 slot is complemented by another PCI-E 4.0, both featuring thermal protection and ready for modern NVMe drives installation.
