GIGABYTE GA-AB350M-DS3H (AMD Ryzen AM4/ B350/ 4x DDR4/ HDMI/ M.2/ SATA/ USB 3.1 Gen 1/ / RGB Fusion/ Micro ATX/ Motherboard)

I was a bit nervous my Ryzen 2600 wouldn't work without updating the BIOS but Gigabyte was wonderful enough to update it for me. Based on the reviews from the past month or so it seems like these boards are a safe bet now and the BIOS issue is mostly resolved. Great price. Fits great in my tiny case. Kinda wish it came with a speaker but whatever. Also kinda wish the SATA ports were arrayed differently, can be kinda difficult to attach SATA cables if you have everything else plugged in already but also not a huge deal. If you're looking for a bargain look no further. Gigabyte made a sweet little board for a steal!

Mine came ryzen 2 ready and It was easy to overclock everything worked and there was no flaws.

I bought this board because it claimed that it supported both Ryzen 7 2700X and Samsung 960 Pro NVMe M.2 SSD. Luckily, the board recognized the CPU, so I was able to install Kubuntu 18.04 and Windows 10, and flashed the latest BIOS. Kubuntu seemed to work fine, but Windows crashed often until I realized that I had to install the latest Windows updates (it took a couple of hours), and installed Gigabyte's chipset drivers on Windows. But it turned out, both Kubuntu and Windows would freeze after about 20-30 minutes of idling. I ran memory tests, and there were no issues detected. The memory I use is Corsair CMK16GX4M2A2400C14R. Although it was not on the board's compatibility list, I read mostly good reviews about it. I did not overclock the system.I wasted several days trying to figure out what was wrong, and then out curiosity detached the Samsung 960 Pro M.2 SSD and installed an inexpensive WD Blue 500 GB SSD. And both Linux and Windows are now stable. So the problem seems to be with M.2 interface. I ordered an M.2 to PCIe adapter and will see what happens when I install the M.2 drive into it instead of the onboard M.2 slot.I was hoping to assemble an high-performance microATX system, and this was the only X370 microATX board that claimed a support for Ryzen 7 2700X, but it turned to be a piece of junk. Now I have to buy an ATX motherboard and and an ATX case in order to be able to use my expensive Samsung 960 Pro SSD.I tried to contact Gigabyte tech support on Gigabyte Web site and submit a question, but the site is not working properly - it displays errors.Definitely, I do not recommend this board. I have to say, my trust in Gigabyte whose faithful customer I have been since 2000 is undermined.UPDATE:I called Gigabyte, they only suggested that I call Amazon customer support and request an exchange. I did. A replacement was delivered in less than two days. I moved all components from the faulty board to the replacement board. NVMe SSD now works well both with a PCI Express adapter and in M.2 slot. So a faulty M.2 slot was the culprit. Changing 1 star to 4 stars. I can't set 5 stars because I wasted several days for finding out what was causing system freezes, and had to spend $9 on thermal paste in order to re-seat the CPU (and I had to drive to a BestBuy store). I am giving this board 4 stars as a credit to Gogabyte hoping that it will improve its quality control.Thank you Amazon customer service for quick and easy RMA.By the way, the replacement board that came with f21 BIOS again was able to boot with Ryzen 7 2700X (although full support of this CPU was implemented only in BIOS version f22), after which I immediately flashed version f23 (the latest).

Used for a Ryzen 1600x, 32GB 2400MHz RAM build.Can use for 1xxx and 2xxx series AMD Ryzen CPUs.Updated the BIOS very easily. Lot's of great software for overclocking and monitoring. Handled a minor overclock of the CPU and RAM no problem.Layout of the board is very good. Easy to install everything.BIOS is awesome. Lot's of settings to mess with. Just be sure you know what you're doing. :)
