Gigabyte has also showcased its next-gen X870E AORUS Xtreme flagship alongside the latest B650E motherboard additions at Computex.
Gigabyte X870E AORUS Xtreme Is A Crazy Enthusiast-Grade Motherboard For AMD Ryzen 9000 CPUs, New B650E Designs Also Showcased
Gigabyte is known for its high-end AORUS Xtreme series which makes its way to the flagship X870E chipset with the new X870E AORUS Xtreme motherboard. This motherboard is a killer design with tons of features that house the AM5 socket supporting AMD Ryzen 9000 Desktop CPUs, four DDR5 DIMM slots supporting crazy fast speeds, and two PCIe 5.0 x16 slots, one of which is the new Ultra Durable design that can sustain some insane amounts of load to prevent it from ever breaking out when using a heavy-weight GPU.
The Gigabyte X870E AORUS Xtreme motherboard features a carbon nanocoated backplate which looks great and in terms of I/O, you get triple M.2 slots, two of which are Gen5 compliant and one more PCIe x16 (x4 electrical) slot. The motherboard also comes with a massive Gen5 M.2 SSD heatsink for the primary slot and the whole finned heatsink design for this motherboard will be incredible for cooling. It also looks great with the reflective surfaces and RGB panels plus the LED panel on the I/O plate is a marked change.
In addition to its latest design, Gigabyte also told us that they will be focusing on the existing B650E and B650 series since they offer a lot of value to gamers and it makes sense then to move to the newer B850 or B840 series which will launch later this year. Gigabyte will be adding two new B650 products to its lineup such as the B650E AORUS PRO X USB4 which is the first AMD B650E motherboard to support the new USB functionality. USB4 will become a native thing on Intel's Z890 motherboards but those are aimed at high-end PCs.
Lastly, there's the Gigabyte B650E AORUS Stealth ICE which comes with backside connector implementation, moving all connectors to the back. The motherboard is also made in a way to ensure maximum compatibility with mainstream cases and there's even a nice white backplate that looks great. Pricing on this model is expected in between $299-$329 US. We will get more X870E & X870 motherboards closer to launch so expect more details soon!
