Motherboard BIOS update for AMD Ryzen 5000 series processors
- From GIGABYTE’s website, download the latest compressed BIOS update file that matches your motherboard model from its product page.
- Uncompress the downloaded BIOS file, save it to your USB flash drive, and rename it to GIGABYTE.bin. Note: The USB flash drive must use the FAT32/16 file system.
- Insert the USB flash drive into the white USB port or BIOS Q Flash port on the back panel of your motherboard (USB port may not be labelled on all models, checking the user manual is recommended)
- Connect the power cables to the CPU 8 Pin power connector (connect either one labeled if there are two) and mainboard 24 Pin power connector.
- Press the Q-Flash Plus button (location may vary by model) and the system will automatically search and match the BIOS file in the USB flash drive on the white USB port. The QFLED and the Q-Flash Plus button on the rear panel will flash during the BIOS matching and flashing process. Wait for 2-3 minutes and the QFLED will stop flashing when the BIOS flashing is complete.

- Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2020Style: MasterPattern: MotherboardVerified PurchasePurchased early.
I had planned to wait until purchasing a Ryzen 5000 Series CPU in this board, but bought two boards.
I've installed only one with a 3700x that is stable at stock, but overall and under performer in terms of Silicon.
Despite getting poor quality CPU, it uses slightly less voltage on this board than it did on my x470 gaming wifi 7.
Both boards have Great VRMS
The Aorus Master, is designed more for the 12 and 16 core parts, so I am wasting a bit of power. I'll be upgrading the power supply, CPU and GPU a bit later. The Board has all of the features I was looking for.
1) Dual Bios
2) 50 amp power stages
3) Finned Heatsink
4) Clear CMOS and Power Reset
5) Plenty of USB
6) Bios is moving up in the world
7) IOMMU Groups,
8) more voltage control
9) so many features in the BIOS.
This was spendy, but worth the money.
Under ideal conditions, I would water cool the CPU and chipset and use for a server or high end work station.
It could also be used for Gaming,but keep in mind that with a 6 core cpu, you're wasting power.
the 5000 series 12 and 16 core should handle gaming OK when watercooled if the rumors are true, but lower core parts usually due better in gaming as they handle the heat a bit better.
Memory Support on this board is off the chain. Ok maybe that's exaggerating, but it's pretty good and especially for the 5000 series parts.
I swapped my NVME from the x470 gaming wifi 7 into the Aorus Master, and it was seemless to move over.
Keep in mind that I didn't use secure boot, stuck with the same manufacturer, and uninstalled drivers first.
Saw some critical review of the early board models. Likely folks messing with bios settings they don't understand or using RAM that hasn't been validated. Also, I have version 1.2. Kind of thinking the Super IO Chip was updated or the x570 chip was redone, but nothing major.
Update: this board (mine is v1.2) is running strong. I've have my G.Skill 3200 cl14 up to 3600mhz cl 16. Using Samsung Bdie. I have 32gb. 4x8gb single rank running at default xmp 3200 cl14. Haven't tested 3600 cl16 for stability.
Crucial Ballistix 3600mhz 64gb installed and works with XMP and no issues.
I'm experiencing issues with Onboard Audio. No rear audio in 5.1 surround. The audio driver recognizes that all speakers are plugged in, but no dice. I've tried to pairs of speakers with the same results and have to reinstall the Audio Drivers after windows updates, and the surround may or may not work. Reaching out to gigabyte to troubleshoot.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2020Style: MasterPattern: MotherboardVerified PurchaseI’m by no means knowledgeable when it comes to motherboards. I can only compare this to my past builds, the most recent of which was an ASUS z-170a. This is the first MoBo of this pricing tier I’ve ever purchased. Put into a Define 7, teamed with a 5800x and PNY 3080. Predictably, it is much better in every respect and I have no complaints.
BIOS/Processor compatibility
Saw some reviews stating a CPU-boot is required to update the bios. This is completely untrue, and anyone stating such just isn’t paying attention to a prominently displayed feature. To get this ready for the 5000 series I used the Q-Flash functionality and it was totally painless. Just power the MoBo and CPU slot, plug in the USB, turn on the PSU and hit the button.
I’m coming from the Z-170 era ASUS bios, and while things are laid out a bit differently I feel that this organization is at least as good. XMP options are easy to set, and manual overclocking is pretty easy to find. I will say that it took me a second to realize some options could be set manually, because clicking them did not allow me to: I had to press enter. It could be made more obvious visually, but this obviously stops being an issue after you figure it out the first time.
Temps
I’m seeing a lot of 5800x-specific temp issues reported by others (irrespective of MoBo) but haven’t had any myself. Not sure whether that’s down to this MoBo, the EK-AIO, or the binning of my specific chip. While some report spikes to 90c and immediate throttling, mine only hits that figure in specific scenarios while Auto-OC is enabled (The SSE portion of Passmark, specifically). Seems related to the amount of voltage being applied to the cores. After setting an OC of 4.75Ghz and peak voltage of 1.35 I haven’t seen it above 80, even in Passmark.
I haven’t seen anything untoward in the temps of the other components.
Audio
Sound quality appears to be fantastic, though there’s some ambiguity as to whether the front and back panel audio offer the same quality, and this may vary based on your case. I’ve plugged my ATH-M50x headphones into the back and am very happy with the result. I feel that it’s noticeably better than my last MoBo.
Mic input works and seems to be good. Definitely don’t have a discerning taste here. I have an Antlion attached to my headphones I use for Discord chat, Roll20 sessions, stuff like that. No issues.
Fans/RGB
Plenty of fan headers, especially if you’ve got a hub (the Define 7 does). I have a fan in just about every position and there’s room for all of them. Seems easy enough to tune fan curves in the BIOS, I just haven’t looked into this myself yet. The defaults, while a little loud, have been fine for me so far given the temps.
I have a solid case, so RGB isn’t important to me, but some of my peripherals (EK-AIO) have this feature, and there seem to be plenty of headers to accommodate a flashy setup
The chipset fan doesn’t seem to ever run if this is an issue for you. I see some complaints about temps in other reviews but haven’t encountered the issue myself.
WiFi/LAN
So far, I've just been using the Wifi with a home router. No Wifi 6, but much better connectivity than the USB-based solution I had for my prior MoBo. No surprises there. If I get a Wifi 6 router or very long LAN cable I'll update this.
Misc
My ASUS z-170a had several quirks I was too lazy to investigate fixes for that don’t appear here. Specifically, I would have to go to the sound control panel for my audio sources to show up for selection. No issues here.
More connectivity than I foresee myself using in the near future. Many high-speed USB slots, plenty of room for storage expansion.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2020Style: MasterPattern: MotherboardVerified PurchaseThis board works great for my Ryzen 7 3800x. The VRMs don't even begin to break a sweat and run cool while delivering clean and stable power even when overclocking. The rest of the board is also great with an awesome layout, lots of M.2 slots, lots of fan headers and monitoring ports, and great expandability. I was worried that the fan on the chipset would be annoying, but it's pretty quiet during normal use. It is noticeable in a very quiet room, but quickly drowned out by pretty much any ambient noise. Still plan to replace it with a chipset waterblock at some point since the rest of my components are water cooled primarily to keep the machine quiet.
I'm moving to this board from an Asus CH7, and this board seems a lot less glitchy than the Asus board. I haven't had to deal with strange audio issues or glitchy fan curve issues like I had with the Asus. The BIOS took some getting used to, but once you figure out where things are, there is nothing you can do on the Asus board that you can't do on this one. Overall, I'm very happy with this motherboard, and would highly recommend it for anyone looking for a high end X570 motherboard.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente Motherboard. Versión 1.2
Style: MasterPattern: MotherboardVerified PurchaseExcelente MoBo. su calidad es excelente y me llego una totalmente funcional, que era mi miedo principal je. Pero por el momento todo perfecto. Me llego la versión 1.2 y lista para los ryzen 3000. Aunque si quieres usarlo para los nuevos procesadores 5000, como lo es en mi caso. Hay que actualizar la bios a la versión F30 para esta marca, siendo este muy fácil y sin la necesidad de contar con otro CPU, pues la puedes realizar solo contando con una usb con el update del bios, conectar la MoBo con el PSU y listo.
Su otra ventaja considerable es el VRM (control de temperatura) y calidad de audio. 100% recomendable.
Lo único como negativo talvez sea el precio y si realmente quieres invertir en esta MoBo. sabiendo que probablemente el siguiente año se mude al stock AM5 y si quieres actualizar necesites al igual una nueva placa. Pero si estas a la idea de estar con este sistema entre 3 a 4 años mas, creo que esta motherboard será suficiente para aguantar el tiempo.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Top Notch Board
Style: MasterPattern: MotherboardVerified PurchaseThis board feels very high quality and very hefty. The BIOS is certainly not as clean as say ASUS but it is very functional but items are usually harder to find if you're not familiar with Gigabyte but this board does improve on the past Gigabyte BIOS in the past. I do not regret going for this board and would choose it over ASUS any day. I've tried both boards and noticed with the ASUS boards, the chipset fan curve seems to be too aggressive. It is always running around the 2800-3000 rpm mark and it is loud compared to the AORUS boards while audible it is not as loud and runs at a lower rpm. The board itself has lots of other features like Dual Bios, Q Code, Voltage monitoring points, and 3x m.2 slots and lots of USB Headers for your RGB/Fan Controllers. So far there haven't been any major issues. The only real downside to the AORUS boards is the software. The RGB software is very limited in patterns and the other software I recommend you don't use as they are simply not worth the time to install as they are extremely buggy

Style: MasterPattern: MotherboardVerified PurchaseI've always had a thing for Gigabyte but it wasn't always that way.
I was a PC building virgin in the middle of 2014 when I made no money and by brother and I saved up to build our first gaming PC. We went with the best bang for buck graphics card GTX 970 and got the coolest looking of them all; the Gigabyte G1 Gaming 3x.
It started there with all the little features like a metal backplate and fan shroud (they don't make them like that anymore these days its all plastic) 7 color windforce logo and ooh that new graphics card smell.
Fast forward to 2020 and I make my own money and want to build a PC that will let me move on with my life but alwaye have a good system if I ever want to do anything.
AMD AM4 was the obvious choice now but the big question was what kind of mother board? In all reality I wouldn't need anything but the best but I really tho I wanted something I'd never have to think about again so it had to be X570.
All the choices were so expensive and this is coming from a guy whose first mobo purchase in 2014 was the AsRock Z97 Pro4 that costed less than 200AUD.
The choices were endless but I was sure of two things; that I wanted a postcode and I wanted a M.2 ssd heatspreader. Now along came a guy by the name of Buildzoid in a GamersNexus video who apparently knew everything there is to know about motherboards and What He Said as an actually hardcore overclocking person, was that there was nothing bad about it and that in fact it was his favorite X570 board.
I was sold.
Today I have the board in my hands (PC)
It is beautiful coming from budget Mobos all my life and although it is $100 more expensive than the GTX 970 G1 Gaming I bought 6 years ago I am very happy with it and even all the little stickers they gave.
