Manufacturer GIGABYTE TECHNOLOGY Co. Ltd, has recently announced new AMD B650 platform motherboards, following the success of the X670 series. This lineup includes models from the GIGABYTE AORUS, AERO and GAMING series.
With these B650 motherboards, they hope to provide more affordable options with notable features for users. This new generation adopts the PCIe® 5.0/4.0 x16 graphics interface and PCIe 5.0/4.0 M.2 slots with EZ-Latch technology, making it easier and safer to upgrade graphics cards and M.2 SSDs . Their Twin Digital power design, with up to 16+2+2 phases, a 105-amp intelligent power stage, and a PCB with up to 12 layers, delivers greater stability, optimal compatibility, and improved performance for AMD Ryzen 7000 series processors.
This is what GIGABYTE B670 motherboards look like for AMD Ryzen 7000
Its advanced thermal design causes the VRM temperature to be reduced and stabilized for the power and performance of PCIe 5.0 slots and PCIe 4.0 M.2 SSDs to avoid performance drops. The shielding design of the SMD slots strengthens the reliability of the signals, in addition to the slot structure.
These B650 motherboards continue the legacy of GIGABYTE's X670 series , offering users a comprehensive lineup from ATX to Mini-ITX form factors. This allows users to choose the motherboard that best suits their needs, budget, and preferences for optimal cost-performance. The B650 series features PCIe and M.2 EZ-Latch technology, while the B650E incorporates the advanced M.2 EZ-Latch Plus for quick, tool-less removal of M.2 SSDs. The PCIe EZ-Latch design includes easy access for removing VGA cards. Its enhanced SMD slots increase shear strength by up to 2,2 times for greater stability.
GIGABYTE's B650 Micro ATX motherboards, including Mini ITX models, support PCIe 5.0 M.2 SSD lanes for fast loading times and high performance in mini PCs or mini servers. Meanwhile, the B650 AERO G is designed for content creators and features VisionLINK technology, enabling data and video transmission via USB Type-C and delivering up to 60W of power for high-end graphics displays.
In the case of the GIGABYTE B650, it features a Twin Digital power design with up to 16+2+2 phases. The Mini ITX B650I AORUS ULTRA model is equipped with an 8+2+1 phase direct digital power design, with each Smart Power Stage capable of handling up to 105W. In its higher-end models, Active OC Tuner is incorporated. This allows the CPU overclocking frequency and the number of operating cores to be dynamically changed, adjusting frequencies and performance for specific applications to achieve maximum performance.
