GIGABYTE B850 AORUS ELITE WIFI7

The GIGABYTE B850 AORUS ELITE WIFI7 is a full‑size ATX motherboard based on the AMD B850 chipset for Socket AM5 CPUs (supports Ryzen 7000/8000/9000 series). It targets mid‑to‑high‑end builds that need modern connectivity — 2.5Gb LAN and Wi‑Fi 7 — together with support for fast NVMe drives and high‑speed DDR5 memory.

Equipped with a robust Twin 14+2+2 digital VRM and large heatsinks, the board is designed for stable power delivery under load and during overclocking. Storage options include three M.2 slots (one M.2 Gen5 via CPU) and four SATA 6Gb/s ports; the main PCIe x16 slot supports PCIe 5.0 with compatible CPUs. The I/O set includes USB Type‑C, an internal USB 3.2 Gen2x2 header, DisplayPort/HDMI outputs for iGPU and an advanced Realtek audio solution.

This motherboard is suitable for builders using current AM5 processors who want a balance of performance, expandability and up‑to‑date networking (including Bluetooth 5.4 and 802.11be Wi‑Fi 7 support).
