GIGABYTE B550M DS3H R2 - AMD Ryzen Motherboard

GIGABYTE B550M DS3H R2 - AMD Ryzen Motherboard brings a balanced micro-ATX platform for DIY builders and upgraders, built around the AMD B550 chipset and ready for Ryzen CPUs from the 3000, 4000 and 5000 series.

This motherboard supports Socket AM4 processors and delivers a sturdy foundation for everyday systems and gaming rigs alike, with PCIe 4.0 support on the primary x16 slot for next-generation GPUs and high-speed NVMe storage.

Memory support is generous for a compact board, featuring four DIMM slots with dual-channel DDR4 capability, ECC and non-ECC compatibility, and speeds up to 4733 MHz (OC) for a maximum of 128 GB of RAM across the board.

Storage options include two M.2 slots (one supporting PCIe 4.0 x4 up to 2280), four SATA III connectors and support for up to six drives total, plus RAID 0/1/10 for data performance or redundancy needs.

Connectivity is practical and well-rounded: HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 provide up to 5120 x 2880 output, a Gigabit Ethernet port driven by the Realtek RTL8111H, multiple USB ports including USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-A, legacy PS/2, and onboard headers for front-panel USB, audio and RGB lighting.

The board includes essential build-friendly features such as a UEFI AMI BIOS (128 Mbit), TPM header, clear CMOS jumper, multiple fan headers for chassis and CPU cooling, passive cooling for chipset components, and comprehensive PC health monitoring for fan, temperature and voltage.

Typical use cases include a compact gaming PC with a Ryzen 5000 series CPU and PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive, a productivity workstation with large memory capacity and RAID storage, or an affordable home office machine with reliable network and audio playback via the Realtek ALC1220-VB codec supporting 7.1 channels.

This micro ATX board measures 244 x 244 mm, comes in a dark brown finish, includes accessories such as screws and a CR2032 CMOS battery, and is backed by a 3-year warranty—making the GIGABYTE B550M DS3H R2 a versatile choice for many builds.
