I just recently built a system with this board and a 3900X. It's a brilliant board overall. Well made with good features. The BIOS is occasionally awkward to navigate but generally pretty good.
Ok, I'm not tech savvy at all, so do you think you could help me with something? This says wifi but other boards also said that but they were just lan controllers. With this board would I need any Ethernet cables or wifi adapters? Or is it when I boot up the system, I go to network settings and connect to my wifi?

we don't need 2.5 gigabit switches, we need everything to be on 10 gigabit, because there's a decent amount of it in the wild already for cheap... we don't need yet again another network option... it's lame that the newer option is slower when we've already got fairly reasonably priced 10gbase-t

GTX 1080 (fans dont spin due low temp) lianli dynamic case (glued some holes with tape at the back side where the IO is, now the air comes from bottom & exits at the top. ) I will be keeping this board.
Just got this board along with 3800x cpu... Sofar so good... Haven't messed with the bios yet... Just worked pretty well out of the box.. All drivers and bios is up to date.
Got it, love it. Only problem I have (and all the testing I did seems to point towards the MB being the culprit...) is that when I turn the computer OFF, I can't turn it back ON... unless I completely cut the power. (As in plug cable OFF/ON, simply toggling the PSU switch OFF/ON doesn't work do. And yes, the PSU is OK, got it RMA-ed once, Corsair AX1600i, solid beast.) I simply seems that the MB is at fault and I can't figure out why. Unfortunately, it's gone beyond the warranty time now, so I can't get a replacement. But I love it. It works great !
@@Level1Techs Thanks for the idea, tried that too but it didn't solve. I am having a hard time blaming it solely on the HW because the issue does not appear 100% of the time, more like 90-95% and especially if there were medium-to-heavy workload and/or graphics involved. (Videos, videogames, ...) Also, it appears after a shutdown performed either from a Linux or Windows (10) partition, so not the OS. At this point I think it could be linked to the power delivery parameters... I'll try to optimise the UEFI following the forum thread, see where it leads me 🙂
I have Gigabyte's x570 Aorus Ultra and my primary complaint about using it's UEFI is the sloooow framerate. Remember the old BIOS days when you could zoom though menus and never miss a keypress or have to wait for the input queue for rapid key presses to finish? I want that back.
any news about the fail to boot\turn on with this board? internet is full with people having horrible problems with rev 1.0, and even gigabyte is lost, releasing bios updates like crazy, and still problems occur \ remain.
I have a problem with this board that I installed. The DRAM light is red and it won't post. It did once and I got into the Bios. The RAM setting was 2200 for a XMP profile for the ram of 3600. I loaded and saved the XMP and restarted to boot loop red light and so on. Tried resetting CMOS with jumper, battery, switch... nothing. Two different RAM makers, one ram, two ram, reset and so on Is this MB bad or CPU?
While I do have a X570 Aorus Master with a 3900x and 64GB of 3200 ram the board is totally pointless overkill (I just like nice chips). And if you have it running on an older motherboard, wait a while, the bios on the x570 are somewhat buggy still - somewhat similar to the zen 1 release.
@@JayzBeerz Well the "Best" board is probably the Aorus Xtreme for $700 other than that it really depends on things like how much USB you use or NVMe drives you have and how much you want to OC (Though you cant do much here). Honestly, just take any of the 275-375 dollar boards that looks the best, they all perform literally the same, maybe theres a difference in Bios, maybe one is a few degrees cooler but thats it.
The most important thing for me is the Power Consumption of a Board... That's one of the issues I have with my ASUS X370-F Strix, that consumes around double at low load situations than the MSI B450I...
I come from an 8700K paired with a Z390 Aorus Master. Currently rocking a X570 Aorus Master with a 5900X. No 3090 yet.... I think I'll choose Aorus Master boards from now on...
This is a great looking board... and I'm hoping with all of this power can handle the 3950X... I was also looking at the Aorus Ultra and ASUS Crosshair Hero VIII. Upgrading a 9 year old workstation for VFX and game dev
Need some help and answers. I heard Aorus boards have some issues recognizing or playing nice with G.Skill RAM, is this true? I would love to use this board especially with the new UEFI, and more than 6 fan headers that I need with the case I'm building in. But my first choice is actually the Asus Crossheir VIII Hero. Which of the two boards is better?
ok right. Why the hell does this board have Q-Flash? for reliability? or future upgrades? Because AMD has stated that 5000 is it on AM4. I only card about updating the Bios and BIOS flashback, or the dual bios in case something goes terribly wrong.
Hi, around 2:40 you mention that a PCIe 3 NVMe does not saturate the PCIe 4 M.2 connector bandwidth, which is technically correct but actually, since the PCIe 3 NVMe runs with PCIe 3, it is therefore limited to... PCIe 3 everything. You're normally very specific about technical stuff and as such I wanted to ask you if I'm missing something here.. Love your vids and keep it up!
Building new PC with this board with Ryzen 7. 1 TB M2 for C drive and 6TB spinner SATA. Two 32GB G.Skill RAM sticks. GPU will be a Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050 4GB. I am not a gamer but I will be running video and audio production / rendering. For this demand do you think the Ryzen CPU cooler included with the CPU will be enough? I plan on running bench tests with the old Heaven Benchmark and MSI afterburner (no over-clocking), GPU-Z and CPUID HW Monitor. I assume if things stay cool all is good for my needs.
no you cant. there is no rgb implementation I know of that is controllable from linux. but afaik asrock allows rgb config in the firmware. dont know about gigabyte firmware.
I kept My eye on this board compared to the Tuf one. This mobo has multiple pcb layers. The only thing bad, its not a mATX. I dont need 3 extra PCIe and that alot of SATA III connections.
Any chance you will be looking at the Asus Crosshair Hero VIII as well ? Would love to know your thoughts on that one. Keep the good stuff comin' and thanks for the great content so far !
You say it's a great mobo with lots of great manufacturing tech and VRMs but never do you mention once the power phase layout or the specific mosfets/components they are using (dpak? IR?). I'm sure it's a great board but a little bit more detail would be nice.
so is this better than the Asus HERO? or MSI ACE? Not gonna lie I've had some really bad luck with gigabyte on X99 so I've been staying away from them since then.
An SG1 reference ! Best review ever! Rear IO , no PS2 no AT no XT no scancode set 3 on a RJ11 ........ fail! But i am special.

I got one of these in Sep 2020 and put a 3900x on it. It ran really well and fast but the CPU usually ran in the 70 to 84C range when at full throttle with warm ambient temps. But when I put a 5950x on last week the CPU temps are now much lower, in the 60's now. Overall about 15C cooler. Did 28,022 on CinebenchR23. This is a good board. I updated BIOS from F30 I flashed to last year up tpo F35 for 5950 support.
@@ncarrasco2006 I just go with the easy Ryzen Master to control it. Although I found it runs coolest and still well with the 'Creator' settings. So that's how I usually leave it as I have it running 24/7 and leave it alone for half day at a time. It runs a bit slower, about 3,700-4,200 MHz. Overclocking it likes to run just shy of 5,000, but it runs in the mid 70's then. Which is still OK, but I think it'll last longer running cooler. And if I'm 80kn away and think about the computer, my first thought isn't that I wonder if it's hot, LOL.
@@johndicus123 Thanks for sharing. I am considering to buy an GIGABYTE X570S AORUS Master. It seems to be very similar with this model. Are you still with your 3900x , it can be tempting to upgrade to an 5950x :)
@@ncarrasco2006 I did indeed put a 5950X in and found it to be so much faster. I have 64GB Ram also which lets me have lots of things open. As I'm doing my art I take breaks and watch videos. Lots of Ram allows that much easier. I really appreciate the x570 Master. And it's nice having two LAN ports on the back also.
Which memory are you using? Exact model number please. I’m having extreme difficulties reaching anything over 2100MHz (as are quite a number of owners) using GSkill TridentZ F4-3466C16D-32GTZR. XMP doesn’t work even when I manually adjust voltage. I manually set all settings and finally hit 3466 but that locked the system to eternal reboot. Woe is me!!
Hey Wendell, nice vid. Any thoughts on linux support for the x470 board and iommu groups? Trying to make a decision on boards. Also, do you have a time stamp examining pcie lanes for the board in this vid?
I'm trying to spec out a system using this motherboard. looking at the NVME slots, one is short, or are the others long? Are they just a long covers or dust shields on the top 2 nvme slots on the mb? Should I get an AORUS NVMe Gen4? is there any noticeable difference from say the latest evo? Please advise. Thanks in advance.
The Taichi VRM is not as good check out comparison yesterday by Hardware Unboxed - more important with a 3900X (or higher) if that is what you are planning. ruclips.net/video/gOSFX2tHDcE/видео.html there is a price difference in Taichi favour though.
Hello! I find a great deal from a Friends that have this in över two year non unboxed so i think out of warranty but Cheap, But can't get it to post so i thinking is it needed to have dual eps 12v connected from power suply? I have only One. The error red ram stick led is Always on but have try two different ram stick that works perfect in two other computer. Have try to search but can't Read nothing about If both eps 12v is needed to be connected. So i try RUclips and ask :) great video about the motherboard. Best regards Mrproooosit from Sweden
@Level1techs - can it support 3 m2 nvme drives running at 3.0 and 1 gpu running at 3.0 16x ? Explain what’s going on with the m2 slots and what gets cut off or what happens?
yes it will support that configuration. the 1st nvme will run at full speed, same for the gpu. the other two m.2 slots are connected to the chipset, wich has a pcie 4.0 x4 uplink to the cpu - so those two nvme ssds are limited to that chipset uplink bandwidth. now pcie 4.0 x4 equals pcie 3.0 x8 - so that means those two ssds in pcie 3.0 x4 mode will both get almost full bandwidth - depending on how much other IO is going on. because stuff like network and sata is also going through the chipset and trough that uplink connection and they share the available bandwidth.
@Richard Bogan You can do whatever the fuck you want, but that doesnt change that people want a certain price/performance cause money is not so easy to get as you think, why else do you think RX570 and GTX1060 are and where as popular as they are? Even, how much money do you make to hold such a claim?
Aorus Elite has only 2 m.2 slots instead of 3 like the master. also the VRM coolers on the Elite are only solid blocks instead of fins. no display for the post code as well, wich is usefull for debugging malfunctioning malware. so its not only the networking.
Hi Wendel and L1T friends, great video! I ordered the X570 Master and it will be delivered next week with my 3900X!! Really exited! I just have one question as you talked about saturation with 3x m.2. My idea was: one GPU (GTX 970 now but will upgrade to high end 5X00 when released) and start with two M.2 PCIE 3.0 corsair mp510 1.92tb's and in the future when PCIE 4.0 SSD's get better add a third PCIE 4.0 SSD. Do i have enough PCIE lanes for my plan or is this not possible with my setup? (TL:DR: 3900X, Aorus X570 Master, 2 x PCIE 3.0 SSD, 1 x PCIE 4.0 SSD). How many SATA ports would i have left for HDD's when I go this route?
Hi team! I will need your help on choosing a new x570 motherboard to pair with a new AMD Ryzen 3800x. I cant decide on the Gigabyte Aorus Master x570 and the ASUS Crosshair Crosshair VIII Hero (Wi-Fi) motherboard. I'm mostly a video and photo editor but I like gaming on my spare time! Can you recommend one of the two or is there something more future proof for high speed storage connectivity i/o? The Gigabyte Aoerus Master is 80$ less then the ASUS in my region. Love your reviews!
I love your reviews.. but is the x570 series of motherboards Linux compatible ? I'm prepared to wait .. Btw I use Fedora 30 and Pop_OS! I already have a Radeon VII waiting for my next new build, together with 32gb ddr4-3600mhz RAM that I ordered last month. My previous m'b is an x370 Gaming-G5 running an 1800x with an RX580.
Can someone please help me, i have just built my pc using an Aorus x570 Master motherboard, and rgb on my fans aswell all other components work, but with the first boot of the pc to this day i have not seen one light coming out of my allegedly "rgb" motherboard. I have checked every BIOS settings, and installed App Center and RGB Fusion 2.0 and still nothing. If i could get at least one colour to shine from any part of the motherboard that would be great. Btw, everything works normal and i do not have any issues regarding gaming and any other work on my pc, unless the RGB on my motherboard. I have seen people build a pc using this motherboard and on first boot RGB lights up, so i do not know if i messed something up or missed a setting in BIOS or just forgot to plug something in. If anyione can help me solve this issue i would be very gratefull. Thanks to everyone in advance.
i bought the x570 aorus master based on its solid review ... and then i ran into a problem ----------- my current MSI Frozr L cooler which i used on the asrock x370 taichi can't be used on this mb cos ... there's not enough space to mount the cooler stand! Anyone recommend a cooler for this mb or should i just stick with the bundled amd cooler?
No VGA port on X570 Aorus Master. Its a top tier enthusiast board, users would have their own GFX Card. The Thunderbolt support on Rev 1.1 X570 Aorus Master boards would offer a display port.
Your chipset has only 4x pcie 4.0 available. (8GB/s total) One corsair force mp600 m.2 sdd does up to 4.950 GB/s reads and 4.250 GB/s write. two of them are almost 10GB/s , so a raid 0 will saturate your chipset and you can kiss any usb or sata peripherals good bye And that x8 slot for the graphics card, I'm not sure if it can be split into 2x4 lanes any further. I read somewhere that only the x16 slots are spilttable into 4x4 lanes, but not a x8. So you could only operate one m.2 next to the graphics card, one on the m.2 slot one the board and one through the chipset. 3 x raid 0 can saturate your 100 GB nic which you now have no pcie lanes for :((( so wait for threadripper :)
Thanks! I cannot decide between the Meg ACE and the Aorus Master. I love that MSI has a heatpipe connecting the chipset so the fan almost never runs. But I like Gigabyte's bios and QVL testing a lot more.
Wow, and I thought my Asrock x570 Taichi had some idiotic layout decisions, but I see Gigabyte has nearly identical decisions as well. I see same settings in 3-4 different places.
The motherboard is gonna outlive the cpu.... Very interesting. When I build my first pc I bought a Phenom 2200 and it is still alive after 10 years. The motherboard I had to replace once and so as the psu. To bad I bought gen 2 a few months before gen3 was announced. I am however curious what would die first, the 470x or the 2700x 😂😂
Gigabyte software is just bad... I have this board and the fan control software is just awful. Sensors showing -1°C, fans just doing what they want... The whole software bundle is riddled with bugs and not working features... Last gigabyte product for me
Is it just me or does it seem crazy how all these x570 our way overbuilt and overpriced .made for enthusiast to overclock and run lots of power through their motherboards but most of the CPUs don't overclock that well . I understand that they have PCI 4.0 but I don't get why they have all these Overkill VRM. It just seems to be a way they can charge us more money for something that can't even really take advantage of to overclock very well. Everybody says these CPUs are very efficient and they don't use as much power. I've even seen other RUclipsrs run the 12 core on b350 . I think if you don't need PCI 4.0 there's no point in buying x570 until the prices are reasonable. I would probably buy a good x470 you can get a good x470 for around $230

(As in plug cable OFF/ON, simply toggling the PSU switch OFF/ON doesn't work do. And yes, the PSU is OK, got it RMA-ed once, Corsair AX1600i, solid beast.)
I simply seems that the MB is at fault and I can't figure out why. Unfortunately, it's gone beyond the warranty time now, so I can't get a replacement.
But I love it. It works great !
Try a fresh cmos battery
@@Level1Techs Thanks for the idea, tried that too but it didn't solve.
I am having a hard time blaming it solely on the HW because the issue does not appear 100% of the time, more like 90-95% and especially if there were medium-to-heavy workload and/or graphics involved. (Videos, videogames, ...)
Also, it appears after a shutdown performed either from a Linux or Windows (10) partition, so not the OS.
At this point I think it could be linked to the power delivery parameters... I'll try to optimise the UEFI following the forum thread, see where it leads me 🙂
Just ask, is it possible to use APU and use type C as video out?
I know you should not do anyway.
Good question!
It's not mandatory for USB type C to carry video so I would not expect it to be implemented unless it's specified in the user manual.
I have Gigabyte's x570 Aorus Ultra and my primary complaint about using it's UEFI is the sloooow framerate. Remember the old BIOS days when you could zoom though menus and never miss a keypress or have to wait for the input queue for rapid key presses to finish? I want that back.
any news about the fail to boot\turn on with this board?
internet is full with people having horrible problems with rev 1.0, and even gigabyte is lost, releasing bios updates like crazy, and still problems occur \ remain.
8:00 the thunderbolt was added to Rev 1.1 and 1.2. This version he reviewed was 1.0 which is why it was missing.
I have a problem with this board that I installed. The DRAM light is red and it won't post. It did once and I got into the Bios. The RAM setting was 2200 for a XMP profile for the ram of 3600. I loaded and saved the XMP and restarted to boot loop red light and so on. Tried resetting CMOS with jumper, battery, switch... nothing. Two different RAM makers, one ram, two ram, reset and so on Is this MB bad or CPU?
Ehhh, can i use three M.2 ssds while still having the full bandwidth for my GPU?
Yuke Gaming same question here
@@hollengrhen1 yes With all three you’ll get full band with to your GPU
All these boards are confusing. I have the 3700X and still looking for a board.
While I do have a X570 Aorus Master with a 3900x and 64GB of 3200 ram the board is totally pointless overkill (I just like nice chips). And if you have it running on an older motherboard, wait a while, the bios on the x570 are somewhat buggy still - somewhat similar to the zen 1 release.
@@nimeq thanks for your input. i just saw a video of the board you mentioned and it seems like a really good board.
Set your budget and get the best from that tier, trying to pick "the best" one of them all is just insane with the current support for the platform.
Jairo I really don’t have a budget. Money is not an issue for me. I just want a good board.
@@JayzBeerz Well the "Best" board is probably the Aorus Xtreme for $700 other than that it really depends on things like how much USB you use or NVMe drives you have and how much you want to OC (Though you cant do much here).
Honestly, just take any of the 275-375 dollar boards that looks the best, they all perform literally the same, maybe theres a difference in Bios, maybe one is a few degrees cooler but thats it.
Not sure what mobo to get with 3900X! Guessing a 570x just for the extra memory capacity
The most important thing for me is the Power Consumption of a Board...
That's one of the issues I have with my ASUS X370-F Strix, that consumes around double at low load situations than the MSI B450I...
I come from an 8700K paired with a Z390 Aorus Master. Currently rocking a X570 Aorus Master with a 5900X. No 3090 yet....
I think I'll choose Aorus Master boards from now on...
This is a great looking board... and I'm hoping with all of this power can handle the 3950X... I was also looking at the Aorus Ultra and ASUS Crosshair Hero VIII. Upgrading a 9 year old workstation for VFX and game dev
Need some help and answers. I heard Aorus boards have some issues recognizing or playing nice with G.Skill RAM, is this true? I would love to use this board especially with the new UEFI, and more than 6 fan headers that I need with the case I'm building in. But my first choice is actually the Asus Crossheir VIII Hero. Which of the two boards is better?
ok right. Why the hell does this board have Q-Flash? for reliability? or future upgrades? Because AMD has stated that 5000 is it on AM4. I only card about updating the Bios and BIOS flashback, or the dual bios in case something goes terribly wrong.
cuz this board design was done before 5000 was even released?
The Aorus Extreme in the PIC was z390. Not the x570. Though, i do think the z390 board looks a lot cooler.
Enjoyed the video. Are there any plans to do a review on the Asus ws x570 ace?
Hi,
around 2:40 you mention that a PCIe 3 NVMe does not saturate the PCIe 4 M.2 connector bandwidth, which is technically correct but actually, since the PCIe 3 NVMe runs with PCIe 3, it is therefore limited to... PCIe 3 everything.
You're normally very specific about technical stuff and as such I wanted to ask you if I'm missing something here..
Love your vids and keep it up!
It is important to give more power to the motherboard. There are 2 extra power connectors or is this just for high overclovking contest?
What case is that
Building new PC with this board with Ryzen 7. 1 TB M2 for C drive and 6TB spinner SATA. Two 32GB G.Skill RAM sticks. GPU will be a Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050 4GB. I am not a gamer but I will be running video and audio production / rendering. For this demand do you think the Ryzen CPU cooler included with the CPU will be enough? I plan on running bench tests with the old Heaven Benchmark and MSI afterburner (no over-clocking), GPU-Z and CPUID HW Monitor. I assume if things stay cool all is good for my needs.
I can't seem to make the wifi work on my xubuntu 18.04. Do I need to install any proprietary driver or something?
can you control the RGB from linux?
no you cant. there is no rgb implementation I know of that is controllable from linux. but afaik asrock allows rgb config in the firmware. dont know about gigabyte firmware.
Linux users don't care about RGB. ;P
I kept My eye on this board compared to the Tuf one. This mobo has multiple pcb layers. The only thing bad, its not a mATX. I dont need 3 extra PCIe and that alot of SATA III connections.
If I'm running one video card and using 2 PCIe Gen 4 NVMe's, will any of those be throttled on B550 or would I need to go to X570?
Trying to figure out if I can raid 0 asus hyper 4 by m.2 pcie under my asus rog strix 3090 oc. Going to put it in silver stone case inverted.
was up in the air on this or the Hero VIII.. the Heros 8 SATA ports were the deciding factor as I needed the extra +2
I can't use xmp and facing a very slow post it takes like 30sec to come to the logo screen 😭
What ram are you using? check if its CVR approved
Awesome. Thank you
Any chance you will be looking at the Asus Crosshair Hero VIII as well ? Would love to know your thoughts on that one. Keep the good stuff comin' and thanks for the great content so far !
You must mean Crosshair Hero by Asus.
@@MrPunkassfuck I do indeed. Typo on my part.
You say it's a great mobo with lots of great manufacturing tech and VRMs but never do you mention once the power phase layout or the specific mosfets/components they are using (dpak? IR?). I'm sure it's a great board but a little bit more detail would be nice.
so is this better than the Asus HERO? or MSI ACE? Not gonna lie I've had some really bad luck with gigabyte on X99 so I've been staying away from them since then.
Will you review x570 Xtreme with 3950x?
thats good to hear gigabyte improved UEFI
Can you use a pcie 4 nvme and a pcie 3 nvme at the same time? At what speed will they run?
An SG1 reference ! Best review ever!
Rear IO , no PS2 no AT no XT no scancode set 3 on a RJ11 ........ fail! But i am special.
Also it looks like 3000 series threadripper will have a 16 core, i am beyond happy about that ! DAM YES ! That new memory controller on a threadripper with ZEN2 cores .... hell yes take my money !
Would buy this over the Asus x570 Strix E? Trying to decide with which one to go. Or, is there a better option in this price range?
I got one of these in Sep 2020 and put a 3900x on it. It ran really well and fast but the CPU usually ran in the 70 to 84C range when at full throttle with warm ambient temps. But when I put a 5950x on last week the CPU temps are now much lower, in the 60's now. Overall about 15C cooler. Did 28,022 on CinebenchR23.
This is a good board. I updated BIOS from F30 I flashed to last year up tpo F35 for 5950 support.
Hi, are you overclocking your 5950x ?
@@ncarrasco2006 I just go with the easy Ryzen Master to control it. Although I found it runs coolest and still well with the 'Creator' settings. So that's how I usually leave it as I have it running 24/7 and leave it alone for half day at a time. It runs a bit slower, about 3,700-4,200 MHz. Overclocking it likes to run just shy of 5,000, but it runs in the mid 70's then. Which is still OK, but I think it'll last longer running cooler. And if I'm 80kn away and think about the computer, my first thought isn't that I wonder if it's hot, LOL.
@@johndicus123 Thanks for sharing. I am considering to buy an GIGABYTE X570S AORUS Master. It seems to be very similar with this model. Are you still with your 3900x , it can be tempting to upgrade to an 5950x :)
@@ncarrasco2006 I did indeed put a 5950X in and found it to be so much faster. I have 64GB Ram also which lets me have lots of things open. As I'm doing my art I take breaks and watch videos. Lots of Ram allows that much easier.
I really appreciate the x570 Master. And it's nice having two LAN ports on the back also.
I bought one and it didn’t power on
My Master DOESN'T have the thunderbolt header on the board.
same here
Which memory are you using? Exact model number please. I’m having extreme difficulties reaching anything over 2100MHz (as are quite a number of owners) using GSkill TridentZ F4-3466C16D-32GTZR. XMP doesn’t work even when I manually adjust voltage. I manually set all settings and finally hit 3466 but that locked the system to eternal reboot. Woe is me!!
Hey Wendell, nice vid. Any thoughts on linux support for the x470 board and iommu groups? Trying to make a decision on boards. Also, do you have a time stamp examining pcie lanes for the board in this vid?
Great board, but the AORUS Pro Wifi is just as good practically speaking
Dont need more cores. Need more PCIe lanes to CPU and Memory Capacity at affordable price.
You need Threadripper then or, if that's not enough, EPYC.
I'm trying to spec out a system using this motherboard. looking at the NVME slots, one is short, or are the others long?
Are they just a long covers or dust shields on the top 2 nvme slots on the mb?
Should I get an AORUS NVMe Gen4?
is there any noticeable difference from say the latest evo?
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.
different nvme can be different lengths, the bottom slot supports up to 80mm i think it was, while the top 2 support a full length one
Top 2 are 110, bottom is 80
@Wendell ... i'm curious ... how does this compare to the AsRock X570 Taichi? .... (still waiting on my 3900X and Taichi ordered on 7.7 -.- )
The Taichi VRM is not as good check out comparison yesterday by Hardware Unboxed - more important with a 3900X (or higher) if that is what you are planning.
ruclips.net/video/gOSFX2tHDcE/видео.html there is a price difference in Taichi favour though.
Hello! I find a great deal from a Friends that have this in över two year non unboxed so i think out of warranty but Cheap, But can't get it to post so i thinking is it needed to have dual eps 12v connected from power suply? I have only One. The error red ram stick led is Always on but have try two different ram stick that works perfect in two other computer. Have try to search but can't Read nothing about If both eps 12v is needed to be connected. So i try RUclips and ask :) great video about the motherboard. Best regards Mrproooosit from Sweden
@Level1techs - can it support 3 m2 nvme drives running at 3.0 and 1 gpu running at 3.0 16x ? Explain what’s going on with the m2 slots and what gets cut off or what happens?
While you're waiting for Wendell to reply you could download the manual from Gigabyte's website and answer the question yourself.
yes it will support that configuration. the 1st nvme will run at full speed, same for the gpu. the other two m.2 slots are connected to the chipset, wich has a pcie 4.0 x4 uplink to the cpu - so those two nvme ssds are limited to that chipset uplink bandwidth. now pcie 4.0 x4 equals pcie 3.0 x8 - so that means those two ssds in pcie 3.0 x4 mode will both get almost full bandwidth - depending on how much other IO is going on. because stuff like network and sata is also going through the chipset and trough that uplink connection and they share the available bandwidth.
@Christopher Brown this thread is like a year old...come on man
Dose this have a aio coonnecter ?
TL;DW: if you don't need wifi and 2.5gb nic, get the Aorus Elite and save over 150$.
@Richard Bogan You can do whatever the fuck you want, but that doesnt change that people want a certain price/performance cause money is not so easy to get as you think, why else do you think RX570 and GTX1060 are and where as popular as they are? Even, how much money do you make to hold such a claim?
I appreciate the pointer as I have no use for either WiFi or a 2.5 Gb/s NIC.
@Richard Bogan Only an idiot would waste money on unwanted features.
Aorus Elite has only 2 m.2 slots instead of 3 like the master. also the VRM coolers on the Elite are only solid blocks instead of fins. no display for the post code as well, wich is usefull for debugging malfunctioning malware. so its not only the networking.
Hi Wendel and L1T friends, great video! I ordered the X570 Master and it will be delivered next week with my 3900X!! Really exited! I just have one question as you talked about saturation with 3x m.2. My idea was: one GPU (GTX 970 now but will upgrade to high end 5X00 when released) and start with two M.2 PCIE 3.0 corsair mp510 1.92tb's and in the future when PCIE 4.0 SSD's get better add a third PCIE 4.0 SSD. Do i have enough PCIE lanes for my plan or is this not possible with my setup? (TL:DR: 3900X, Aorus X570 Master, 2 x PCIE 3.0 SSD, 1 x PCIE 4.0 SSD). How many SATA ports would i have left for HDD's when I go this route?
Hi team! I will need your help on choosing a new x570 motherboard to pair with a new AMD Ryzen 3800x. I cant decide on the Gigabyte Aorus Master x570 and the ASUS Crosshair Crosshair VIII Hero (Wi-Fi) motherboard. I'm mostly a video and photo editor but I like gaming on my spare time! Can you recommend one of the two or is there something more future proof for high speed storage connectivity i/o? The Gigabyte Aoerus Master is 80$ less then the ASUS in my region.
Love your reviews!
I love your reviews.. but is the x570 series of motherboards Linux compatible ? I'm prepared to wait .. Btw I use Fedora 30 and Pop_OS!
I already have a Radeon VII waiting for my next new build, together with 32gb ddr4-3600mhz RAM that I ordered last month.
My previous m'b is an x370 Gaming-G5 running an 1800x with an RX580.
Can someone please help me, i have just built my pc using an Aorus x570 Master motherboard, and rgb on my fans aswell all other components work, but with the first boot of the pc to this day i have not seen one light coming out of my allegedly "rgb" motherboard. I have checked every BIOS settings, and installed App Center and RGB Fusion 2.0 and still nothing. If i could get at least one colour to shine from any part of the motherboard that would be great. Btw, everything works normal and i do not have any issues regarding gaming and any other work on my pc, unless the RGB on my motherboard. I have seen people build a pc using this motherboard and on first boot RGB lights up, so i do not know if i messed something up or missed a setting in BIOS or just forgot to plug something in. If anyione can help me solve this issue i would be very gratefull. Thanks to everyone in advance.
i bought the x570 aorus master based on its solid review ... and then i ran into a problem ----------- my current MSI Frozr L cooler which i used on the asrock x370 taichi can't be used on this mb cos ... there's not enough space to mount the cooler stand! Anyone recommend a cooler for this mb or should i just stick with the bundled amd cooler?
Where is the display port in this mb?
No VGA port on X570 Aorus Master.
Its a top tier enthusiast board, users would have their own GFX Card.
The Thunderbolt support on Rev 1.1 X570 Aorus Master boards would offer a display port.
Won't this be outdated when AMD switches to AM5 for the ryzen 5000?
Ryzen 5000 support from Bios Revision F30 onwards.
www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/X570-AORUS-MASTER-rev-11-12/support#support-dl-bios
Your chipset has only 4x pcie 4.0 available. (8GB/s total)
One corsair force mp600 m.2 sdd does up to 4.950 GB/s reads and 4.250 GB/s write. two of them are almost 10GB/s ,
so a raid 0 will saturate your chipset and you can kiss any usb or sata peripherals good bye
And that x8 slot for the graphics card, I'm not sure if it can be split into 2x4 lanes any further. I read somewhere that only the x16 slots are spilttable into 4x4 lanes, but not a x8. So you could only operate one m.2 next to the graphics card, one on the m.2 slot one the board and one through the chipset.
3 x raid 0 can saturate your 100 GB nic which you now have no pcie lanes for :(((
so wait for threadripper :)
Thanks! I cannot decide between the Meg ACE and the Aorus Master. I love that MSI has a heatpipe connecting the chipset so the fan almost never runs. But I like Gigabyte's bios and QVL testing a lot more.
The chipset fan is almost totally silent 99% of the time.
@@p0rt It's not the noise, it's the point of failure. Can you just run down to the store and pick up another one?

Well mobos tend to die rather fast tho..

Not really.
Gigabyte software is just bad...
I have this board and the fan control software is just awful.

The whole software bundle is riddled with bugs and not working features...
Last gigabyte product for me
Is it just me or does it seem crazy how all these x570 our way overbuilt and overpriced .made for enthusiast to overclock and run lots of power through their motherboards but most of the CPUs don't overclock that well . I understand that they have PCI 4.0 but I don't get why they have all these Overkill VRM. It just seems to be a way they can charge us more money for something that can't even really take advantage of to overclock very well. Everybody says these CPUs are very efficient and they don't use as much power. I've even seen other RUclipsrs run the 12 core on b350 .
I think if you don't need PCI 4.0 there's no point in buying x570 until the prices are reasonable. I would probably buy a good x470 you can get a good x470 for around $230
