We managed to get our hands on the Gigabyte B550 AORUS PRO for a quick run with a Ryzen 3 3300X just to see what kind of performance can we expect from the budget-friendly(?) Ryzen 3000 pair. Without any further ado, here’s the summary of our experience with the board.

AMD’s B550 chipset has finally launched, and we get to look at Gigabyte’s flagship B550 Aorus Master offering. Can the price reduction for the B550 silicon versus X570 prove sufficient in freeing budget for Gigabyte to cram in features typically associated with higher-end X570 motherboards?

The trio all features an integrated I/O shield. The Pro and Elite share the same power-delivery consisting of a 12-phase supply to the CPU plus another two for the SoC. In detail, the boards use a six-phase Intersil ISL229004 PWM that’s doubled and connected to 12 Vishay SiC651C phases each capable of 55A. These appear to be unique to B550 as the Aorus X570 boards use different setups.

Aorus is the enthusiast arm of Gigabyte, and the Z490 Xtreme is the highest-specified board for anyone not requiring explicit watercooling – there’s the Xtreme WaterForce model for that. Previously reviewed Xtreme boards have had a distinctive, minimalist look evidenced by almost board-wide cooling, rotated ports, and restrained RGB. This, unmistakably, is an Xtreme, and it looks really good in the flesh.
