Compact AM4 board for small builds

The GIGABYTE B550I AORUS PRO AX is a Mini-ITX motherboard built around the AMD B550 chipset. It accepts AM4 socket processors including Ryzen 5000 series and 3rd Gen Ryzen with a BIOS update. Dual-channel DDR4 memory up to 64 GB is supported across two slots.

Single M.2 slot with PCIe 4.0

One M.2 connector wired to the CPU provides PCIe 4.0 x4 bandwidth for a 2260 or 2280 NVMe SSD when a 3rd Gen Ryzen processor is installed. The board also offers four SATA 6Gb/s ports for additional drives. No second M.2 slot is present.

Ideal for compact Ryzen systems

Builders who need a tiny footprint with 2.5 GbE LAN, Wi-Fi 6 and a single high-speed NVMe drive will fit here. Users requiring multiple M.2 slots, more than two DIMMs or legacy PCI expansion should consider a larger form factor.

Questions about this item

What does the DDR4 4866 O.C. figure mean for real-world memory speed?

It is the highest overclocked DDR4 frequency the board can reach with 3rd Gen Ryzen CPUs; actual speed depends on the memory kit and CPU memory controller.

How does the PCIe 4.0 x16 slot operate with different processors?

3rd Gen Ryzen CPUs run the slot at PCIe 4.0 x16, while newer Ryzen with Radeon Graphics CPUs run it at PCIe 3.0 x16.

What clearance does the M.2 heatsink need for a 2280 drive?

The M.2 slot accepts 2260 and 2280 form factors and the included Thermal Guard covers the full length of a 2280 SSD.
