B450 AM4 MicroATX Motherboard

The Gigabyte B450M DS3H WIFI-Y1 is a Socket AM4 MicroATX board built on the B450 chipset. It supports Ryzen processors from the first and second generations natively, while third and fifth generation CPUs require a BIOS update. The board ships with an I/O shield, two SATA cables and Wi-Fi antennas.

Builders with a compatible first or second

This board works immediately with Ryzen 1300X, 1400, 1500X, 1600X, 1700X, 2200G, 2400G, 2600X, 2700X and other listed 1st and 2nd Gen processors. Builders who do not already own a compatible CPU cannot update the BIOS, so the board will not function with 3rd or 5th Gen Ryzen chips such as the 3600, 5600X or 5800X. Buyers without a supported processor should look elsewhere.

BIOS update dependency on existing CPU

The critical specification is the BIOS update requirement: a compatible 1st or 2nd Gen Ryzen CPU must be installed before the board can support later generations. Without access to one of those processors the board cannot be made to work with newer chips. This constraint decides whether the motherboard is usable for a given build.

Questions about this item

Does the board run hot or loud during all-day use with the stock cooler?

The motherboard itself has no active cooling, so noise and heat depend entirely on the CPU cooler you install and the case airflow you provide.

What CPU must I already own to update the BIOS before installing a newer processor?

You need a supported 1st or 2nd Generation Ryzen such as Ryzen 5 1600, Ryzen 7 1700X or Ryzen 5 2600X to perform the BIOS update.

Will my existing SATA drives and eSATA bracket work straight away?

Yes, the board includes native SATA ports and the package supplies two SATA cables, while eSATA can be connected through the internal headers.
