Reviews around price (5.00 of 5)

  • Decided to add replacement RAM (since it was identical and a decent price)...asked Amazon to convert replacement RAM to purchase.
  • The price is not the greatest, but if you are looking for the best-cheap experience for a Ryzen 7 2000 series, here it is.
  • My old Gigabyte z77 MB died close to Prime day and I got this board and a Ryzen 2700 for a very good price
  • Price could be lower but all in all, happy with the purchase.
  • : You get a ton of connectivity (USB C on mobo for case connect was a must for me) and the price is extremely competitive for x470

Reviews around dram lead (4.45 of 5)

  • I bought this to replace a more expensive ASUS M/B which failed
  • DRAM led would almost instantly blink off after lighting up and then the cycle would repeat
  • CPU led for a few seconds, flash of the DRAM led, and back to CPU led.
  • DRAM led would almost instantly blink off after lighting up and then the cycle would repeat

Reviews around rgb (4.03 of 5)

  • Very pretty RGB, Lots of fan headers, and works with all Ryzen products and even some last gen APUs
  • The bios interface is clear, but abysmal in that it lacks any guide or description of the many settings and options that it can perform- not even the booklet that comes with the board is clear at all about any of this settings- although the board has an HDMI, the bios makes it such that those planning on using a Ryzen 2200G or 2400G will have difficulty trying overclock (which is kind of necessary to get 1080p gaming out of those two specific CPU or APU chips).The orange color of the board can clash with the rgbs in a well lit room though you wouldn't notice it if the computer is under your desk
  • I bought this to replace a more expensive ASUS M/B which failed
  • Part of that was due to the better RGB lighting options on the board and software control
  • All the RGB is a plug as well (: Aura Sync works flawlessly

Reviews around feature (3.86 of 5)

  • The only missing features for my are the dual lan, vlans and the AC wifi
  • Functional board with a large variety of IO and good feature set for the price
  • This board has an amazing feature set and is extremely durable.
  • Built in bluetooth is a very nice feature as it the wifi
  • The colorful RGB illumination and overclocking features on this model were very appealing, so I bought it with very high expectations

Reviews around design (3.75 of 5)

  • Easy install and well designed, the screws for the mother board did not arrive with the product
  • Pros-build quality-layout-features-cosmetics-RGB-I/O-variety of headersCons-RGB and
  • The sleek, classy design of the IO panel and the lowkey, dark-themed background of the board itself make for a subtle yet classy look overall
  • Design may be too overstated for some
  • The board itself is great, slick design with high quality materials plus an overkill in terms of VRMs

Reviews around gaming (3.50 of 5)

  • Would 100% recommend this board and of course the gaming 7 is probably just as good if you don't mind the price of it.
  • I've noticed over the past few months of looking through all these Amazon reviews for Gigabyte's X470 AORUS Gaming boards that sometimes they won't even bother to respond for several weeks, doing a bunch of responses and ticket opening at the same time
  • The bios interface is clear, but abysmal in that it lacks any guide or description of the many settings and options that it can perform- not even the booklet that comes with the board is clear at all about any of this settings- although the board has an HDMI, the bios makes it such that those planning on using a Ryzen 2200G or 2400G will have difficulty trying overclock (which is kind of necessary to get 1080p gaming out of those two specific CPU or APU chips).The orange color of the board can clash with the rgbs in a well lit room though you wouldn't notice it if the computer is under your desk
  • Combined with the Ryzen 2700X processor I built a very fast and powerful gaming rig.
  • I bought the Gaming 5 Wifi and the wifi worked just fine along with the BT

Reviews around issue (3.34 of 5)

  • Initially there were issues with the app center program which helps control things like the rgb of the board, but with the latest bios and software updates everything works just fine
  • To be fair these issues are not critical but they are a massive hassle.
  • Everything works perfectly so far, no issues, no overheating, sound is good, no freezes or reboots

Reviews around power (3.22 of 5)

  • It has everything: the slick, classy looks every PC builder wants, enough power and functionality to satisfy any avid gamer, and ease of install so that anyone from beginner to pro can put it together in no time
  • It took me around 20 BSOD's to finally realize the integrated graphics we're not receiving enough power from the default BIOS settings
  • Then lets say one day you lose power and you don't have a UPS or, like in my case, you decide you want to either do hardware work on the inside of your case or even just want to simply disconnect the power cable to move your PC to a different room or even a different place in your same room
  • I thought it was more of a gimmick but precision boost 2 must like the constant stable power it provides.
  • An error code F9 will flash several times and the system will attempt to start up in an endless loop until power is manually interrupted

Reviews around corsair vengeance (2.54 of 5)

  • Unfortunately they must not have even tested the wireless because nothing has changed and the MB had little splatters and gobs of Thermal Paste all over the MB including in 1 of the RAM slots, so my guess is that they were behind on RMA's and they just went through the basics as fast as they could

Reviews around software (2.28 of 5)

  • Big mistake, the lighting software for my GPU doesn't work and I can't control it through the motherboard RGB software either
  • Overall it's done all I've asked it to, the only downside is the terrible software (the client software you install in Windows for RGB Fusion and others) but imo that doesn't warrant a star knocked off
  • Unfortunately they must not have even tested the wireless because nothing has changed and the MB had little splatters and gobs of Thermal Paste all over the MB including in 1 of the RAM slots, so my guess is that they were behind on RMA's and they just went through the basics as fast as they could
  • Coming from Intel it is taking some getting used to, but as far as everything working as it should this board seems rock solid
  • I use the BIOS to control the RGB which the software in Windows 10 for it is buggy

Reviews around bios (2.23 of 5)

  • I waited about 2 months after I started having the corrupted main BIOS issue before even posting my review
  • Really like how it looks and the BIOS are easy to navigate and to change the colors on the mobo
  • The BIOS is easy to navigate if you know what your looking for
  • September 10th, 2018--This garbage WILL corrupt the main BIOS within 3 months of ANY SORT OF
  • The truth is that the main BIOS was STILL CORRUPT and you were using the BACKUP BIOS the ENTIRE TIME since you
