CAN YOU HELP ME? This combo is piece of xt for me. I have both and my pc freezes alllll the time. I have change every hardware 3 times, like, new ram, mobo, gpu power supply and still crashes. Look like short-circuit. What is going on ?
Have you updated to the latest bios? Reset your memory timings too to rule out that being an issue. Ideally, you want to check your PSU, memory, GPU on another system. I'd want to check the system using Linux or a fresh windows install too to rule out this bring a driver or memory issue. Being honest, i don't think freezes will be coming from the motherboard. Seems more like a GPU, memory, Windows or driver issue to me.
I have gigabyte a320 for almost 4 years and still working great until now. And now i have this gigabyte x570 master motherboard , bit heavy but good quality
X570's are awesome in backwards compatibility, I'm really hoping they last another generation, nice purchase Kevin, definitely the motherboard I'd go for!
Yeah they've said this is the last generation, but it would be good if we get one more. I'm not too bothered either way as I'll get a few years out of it at least. Looking forward to actually building the thing haha.
I think this is the last outing due to ddr 5. I wanted a good upgrade from 2700x & more than 5ghz (just psychological desire) and this ticked all boxes.
Good. This is the revised version of motherboard where the completely removed the capacitor that was dangerously close to the CPU socket, causing problems with some build during CPU cooler placement. Good update!
Great video Kevin, at the moment I’m working out my new build. My big problem is that my NLE utilises Intel CPUs better than AMD. I’ve already spec’d up my AMD option If I go down that route and I’ve decided on the same board and CPU if I go down the AMD route. Regardless of the CPU, I’ll be using a Gigabyte Aorus board. My last few builds have been Aorus and I’ve never had any issues, I’ve heard people complain about the BIOS for the Aorus boards but I’ve always found them really easy and straight forward, plus they’re really good for XMP RAM. If I go Intel for my next build it’ll be the next 11th Gen i9. The main problem is that Intel are going back to 8 core for Gen 11, which is just mind boggling seeing as AMD are at 16/32 for desktop with the 5950X. That said, not many programs utilise all the cores and threads on the 5950X and like I just said, I’m kind of a bit screwed because my NLE likes Intel for the QuickSync processor. If my NLE wasn’t an issue I’d be going straight to AMD without any hesitation. I’m also considering what GPU for the next build. I already had a 3070 but sold it thinking that January would be easier for a 3080. At the moment there’s all kinds of madness going on with all GPUs, not just the 30 series. The weird thing is that it’s actually easier to get a 3090 without getting scalped. Given that 3080s are going for up to £1200, it starts making sense to look at a 3090 for £1600 without being scalped. It also looks like all the prices at MSRP are going up, which is just ridiculous. Anyway, looking forward to how you get on with your build. All the best for the new year. Cheers, Dave.
Good to hear from you Dave. I'm using DaVinci Resolve now and it apparently works well with both Intel and AMD. Only problem I havewith my current Aorus board is that there hasn't been a bios update in a while. Which I guess is irrelevant if everything is stable. How does your Mac Mini perform with OBS and video editing etc? Is that something you could use in the future? Perhaps it could work in a dual PC setup where it acts as the recording computer. Yeah the GPU situation is difficult. It's going to be near impossible to get a 3080 because of what's happening in the crypto work. My recommendation is to join a few stock update Discord groups so you know when GPUs are in stock. StockInformer is a good group to check out. If you sold your 3070, which GPU are you using currently? Kevin
Alright Kevin. I’ve tried Resolve and like it because it does work better than anything else with various CPUs and GPUs and does take advantage of CUDA etc. for rendering. My problem is that Edius is faster for my workflow and is a better editor, although Resolve has all the extra colour and audio stuff and is no match for GPU processing. If I had the time I could put more effort into Resolve but when you have a production workflow that’s working great for TH-cam, it’s hard to find the time to properly test other stuff. The Mac Mini is great for what it is and is a brilliant platform for moving forward with. Although, regardless of how good it is it doesn’t compare to a Windows PC or even a Mac Pro with a modern multicore CPU and modern GPU. Although in that instance you are talking about the difference between £700 and a minimum of at least a few grand. In the future I can see Apple Silicon ARM SoCs taking over once they’ve got up to speed with high CPU and GPU core counts. As for OBS. I mostly capture from external sources and quite often use two 4K capture cards, this is defo something you can’t do with a Mac Mini. Also and regardless of what you may have seen on YT, a Windows PC using NVENC is defo better than any Mac M1 device using the M1 GPU as the encoder. Bottom line, the Mac Mini is awesome and is a brilliant buy if you’re not already over invested in certain Windows and Mac workflows and it’s will definitely only get better. Yeah, the stupidity with the GPU stuff is just too much. As Edius doesn’t use CUDA and only uses NVENC for encoding, I’m back to my GTX 1660. Outside of CUDA and if you are mostly encoding, there’s no difference between a GTX 1660 and an RTX 3090, they both use the same Turing 7Th Gen NVENC encoder. I sold my 3070 to a friend for cheaper than what it’s MSRP was, I had no intention of selling it at a profit on eBay, I absolutely hate all that greedy scalping thing. Basically sold it for what I paid £550. Problem is though, I seriously thought that I’d get a 3080 in January and that looks like it’ll never happen and it looks like all the 30 series prices are due to go up at MSRP, so expect the scalping prices to go up. End of the day, for my use with Edius the CPU is more important than the GPU. The 3070 was great for gaming but after trying my best with some PC games, which played great on the 3070, I’m just as crap on PC as I’ve always been 😆 For me personally, the latest Xbox or PlayStation are a much better buy for gaming. Although I do prefer to play in 4K or the highest resolution possible, the GTX 1660 with my i9 is great for 1080 PC gaming if I ever want to mess about on PC for gaming. I doubt I’ll look at another RTX until Edius does GPU processing or if I maybe go over to Resolve at some point. Cheers, Dave.
Yeah from a workflow point of view, Windows definitely suits me better. I was reluctant to change from Premiere Pro as I had used it for several years, but when they started being assholes to me, I jumped. I'm glad I did. It took me a couple of video edits to get used to it all, but I'm getting there now. I love how audio and colours and everything is all integrated into one interface. Yeah I don't think the M1 would replace anything I have now, but it would be good for a computer somewhere around the house. It's PC I play games on, which is another reason why I wanted a new GPU. I've picked the worst time to build a new PC though ;) Kevin
Hi Kevin I subbed and watched your video on the Tweak 2 software just picked up an Strix 3090 and looked on your site do you have a video on Tweak 3 or do you recommend staying with Tweak 2?
Ahhh nice. Mine isn't going well. I've had the CPU for about a month as there's a major delay on everything. My SSD is now delayed at least a week and my AIO cooler is delayed about two weeks. I'm not sure whether to look at alternatives or just wait it out. Frustrating.
@@KevinMuldoon That sucks. Sorry to hear. I had to run out and get different memory. Mine weren't on the compatible memory list and wouldn't run at 3600 mhz.
Oh that's a pain. What memory didn't work? Does the new memory work fine? I cancelled my SSD and AIO Cooler orders and ordered from Amazon UK. Moving forward, I'll ideally get more parts from Amazon so I don't have to deal with all this, but they're not always the best place to buy computing equipment.
Have you had any issues with this motherboard? Would you still recommend it for my new 5900x? Or do you have a better option? I've heard some have had issues with not turning on. I found this used for $280 for 1.0. Is there a problem with 1.0 with 5900x?
I've had this motherboard since it first was released and the fact this baby can run a 5950x and run against the best of them is actually fucking insane.
I was looking through your PC build videos and we have a lot of things common.. First, we both have same board(mine is Rev. 1.0 as I bought it at launch of 3000 series with 3700X and its fine with me as I dont use thunderbolt) and cpu. Also what is common is we both use Corsair AX series PSU, the difference is I bought 1600i(last week) operating on single rail mode. Also similar is we both have 3090 Aorus edition, I got two of them but Xtreme Varient(One bought in November, and another last week along with AX1200i). Not using it in SLI mode for gaming as there's no need. But two cards are used for my 3D work stuff.
Wow. Yeah looks like I copied you 😁👍 The 1600i is a beast. It's £449.99 here in the UK. Are you using it for mining or is the extra overhead to accommodate both 3090s being overclocked.
Did you have to update your bios for the new cpu. Also little confused about how to update your bios. Heard to update you only need the power supply to update or you can update with all your components installed?
Yes I had to update the bios. This was something I had planned to do earlier, but didn't do it until the build was complete (of course, there's no harm in doing it last). You just need to download the firmware to a USB drive and then connect it to the bios usb port. On my board, I had to rename the file to Gigabyte.bin and insert it into the Q Flash USB port and then hit the flash bios button. It's straightforward and I wasn't even connected to the monitor when I flashed it. I think you're right in that you only need the power connected.
@@KevinMuldoon looking forward to your review! I'm planning to go with corsair H100i. I don't do much over clocking, so confused if I'll really need a liquid cooler. I love your content! keep up the good work.
Gonna have the same motherboard and cpu! Also i have a question, is the psu corsair rm 850x ATX 12 V compatible to the motherboard? cuz i will have a corsair crystal 680x boitier so
I'm not sure there is any particular one that is best. Sure, the higher end ones tend to have better cooling for the VRM etc, but it mostly comes down to connectivity etc. That is, how many USB ports, whether you need thunderbolt 3 connections, what speed you need for ethernet etc.
It really depends on what games you play, your budget etc. The 3000 series Nvidia cards and 6000 series AMD cards are much cheaper right now, and the newer 4000 series cards are just around the corner so they may drop further (but no guarantee).
It's doing great. I was using it tonight to edit a video. There were a number of issues I the beginning with USB not working, but those were resolved via bios updates. Never had any issues since.
Great video. What's your take on the CMOS battery issue? I've seen a lot of complaints about having to completely take out the CMOS battery and put it back in for reset pretty regularly. I really, really want this board, but I don't want to have to take apart my rig on a regular basis either. You can read all about the issues if you google "gigabyte aorus master x570 cmos battery" and you'll get a bunch of results.
I haven't experienced any issues like that at all. I have the latest version of the board though so perhaps it's something they've fixed. The only issues I've had were actually caused my a PCIE riser.
Heads up Josh. I've encountered one small issue. Still trying to resolve it. USB seems to disconnect regularly. My camera still works when run through my thunderbolt 3 hub, but when one single camera is connected, it freezes after just a few seconds. Seems like a power/sleep issue. There's a lot of people talking about it, but I'm going to update to the latest drivers and bios before reviewing. Someone did mention that these issues are resolved when you change from gen 4 to gen 3. That's something I may have to do if necessary, but I'll try and fix it first.
@@KevinMuldoon I've already ordered it after your first reply. Haha. Even if there is an issue, I'm pretty tech savvy, so I'll either live with it or get a replacement later. It's just too good of a board to pass up for my specific needs.
@@KevinMuldoon Interesting. Are you saying that gen 3 seems to be more stable right now? That makes sense, but I want to make sure. I haven't found a 5900x yet. I might just buy a 3900x if that's the case.
are you having isssues with the battery i've seen comments where the motherboard wont start and peep have to remove the battery and put it back after 5-10 min to get it to start again
Why are you not using m.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe 1 TB drives like WD sn850 with 7000 MB/s read and 5,300 MB/s write, the boards made for type speed as long as the GPU is PCIe 4.0.. The 1.1/1.2 Rev also has a major update to the memory lanes that allow for good overclocking of the memory, I think the Rev 1 was only up to about 4000mhz, the 1.1/1.2 is about 5100mhz. One other point, its the coolest running VRMs out of all x570 boards almost, (water).
Oh that's a pain. I would have returned mine if it didn't have it as it's essential for me connecting drives and other accessories. You could use USB 3.1 I guess.
@@KevinMuldoon ya I got mine March of 2020 so I do not think it was available yet, you live and you learn haha! I will fair with usb 3.0. 20gbps is still more than enough for audio application... for you though that 40gbps is sweet.
It will come in handy for me as I'm connecting many cameras. When I'm able to connect most cameras directly to the motherboard, I won't need all the bandwidth. Still, gives me the option of connecting Thunderbolt 3 storage and egpus.
Mine was a new build so both the new CPU and motherboard were new. If I was only upgrading the CPU, I'd definitely check for bios updates as they usually improve compatibility.
@KevinMuldoon My original build was around this time in 2020 and I'm doing a sort of lateral build. Before I go to the 7000 series AM5 board or decide to go Intel next build. I wanted to upgrade as much as possible before I switch mobo. So I went with the 5950x, 128gb of 3600 ddr4 & the main upgrade was my GPU. The RTX 4090.. because I went with that, I bought a better PSU as well... I got an EVGA 1600w Gold on sale. I'll update the bios before I put in the new cpu.
Nice one. That will still be a powerful PC. I believe it should be a relatively easy upgrade. Don't think there's much to do beyond swapping the CPU, but could be worth checking the bios to check settings are correct.
@@KevinMuldoon Was there any specific settings in your bios? Mine is only giving me options to treat the card as a usb type c card. Also curious what drivers/thunderbolt fw you have.
First things first, have you checked your motherboard supports the card from the official compatible list. Is there a thunderbolt header there for the cable?
@@KevinMuldoon yessir I have a TBC 5 pin header on my x750 aorus master rev1.2 and that's approved on their site. However Gigabyte's website has been pretty outdated and I can't get in contact with their support team as they're doing a complete restructure after having their website held for ransom.
I'm not sure why it's not working. I migrated mine from my older motherboard and didn't have any problems. If possible, I'd try and troubleshoot it by testing it on another board.
@@KevinMuldoon Nice! I was debating on getting this board vs the Vision D.. I have a z390 Master and it's just a solid motherboard but I also need that thunderbolt connection. Super good to know that it's working out for you. I have one more question. One thing that was common with the Z390 master is a sort of coil whine or funny noise around the VRMs on occasion. Do you hear anything weird coming off this board? Thanks for responding to me!
You're welcome. I have noticed electrical buzzing. I'm noticing it a little more as it's in an open case. It's not really a whine though and it's difficult to pinpoint it exactly (apart form knowing it's not the AIO or GPU or fans etc). I'm moving it to a closed case so shouldn't be an issue. The bigger concern is the AMD gen 4 problem. They've rolled out a new bios update to fix if, but I still can't use Gen 4 for the GPU. Quite frustrating (I've covered this on my channel recently).
@@KevinMuldoon Yeah I hesitate to call it a coil whine too as it's obviously not whatever that noise could be. Disabling CStates did help it a bit but it's really a minor nitpick as the board overall is so good. I haven't seen the the GEN 4 issue. Will check that out... thanks again!
usb 4.0 will beat out thunderbolt 3 anyway, cuz its a intel vs USB pantent. anyway u can get solutions for thunderbolt or things that make u setup getting oki. and also pci cards.
I have an x470 aorus, currently running a 7 2700x flawlessly. I bought a 7 5800x. A total disaster : reboot, mad temperature etc.. tried everything (last bios, tuning in amd’s software). I sent back the cpu. I’m now more skeptical with gigabyte mobo with high end cpu 😓
@@KevinMuldoon indeed they are, but in fact forums are packed with users complaining : crazy temperature, bsod, reboot.. something's weird with these AMD chips 😕
how does this board do with a lot of usb devices plugged to it? I have 2 computers and both of them have had issues with having their usb controllers overwhelmed. one was just for vr with oculus sensors and my main one had about 6 external drives and a few other usb items.
All AMD motherboards have been terrible with USB connections this year due to a problem with the AMD AGESA, but they're rolling out bios updates that should fix this. I'm hoping to run most of my cameras through it, but I also use a thunderbolt 3 hub for additional devices.
@@KevinMuldoon wow that was a quick reply. my vr build is actually intel, will a thunderbolt hub work on this motherboard and help reduce the stress on the usb controllers? I am looking to get a new motherboard and I really like this one.
The key thing for me was the thunderbolt connector. It's not something you see on a lot of boards. I've talked about the usb issue over the last two months, but I'm going to test the new bios today or tomorrow and talk about it in my next video.
Good luck. My other videos about AMD over the last few weeks will help explain the issue 👍 If there's anything else you want me to check, just let me know.
Hello. when I open Google Chrome and browse some website the temperatures rise up to 70 degrees and then settle at 50 degrees. I would be grateful if you would give me an answer. Thank you
I'm trying to install windows but I it freezes at the aorus logo and it comes up with a b1 q code on the mobo. What do I do to fix it? I'm using a 3900x with the board
My Motherboard which is the B550I AORUS PRO AX, Says 1.0, and on the specifications page it says 1.0 supports 5000 series CPU’S, So does that mean I can still turn it on boot everything, and maybe later update the bios?
@@KevinMuldoon Yeah I think when the whole build is done ill just update it too the latest. All I really need is for it to boot into windows Thanks! And nice video because I didn’t know you could check you REV! Have a good day.
@@KevinMuldoon Sorry, I have one more question so I have F11 Bios Update saved to a flash drive, The only real question I have is if I want to qflash it, do I have to rename it or can I just leave it as is in the flash drive and then just qflash my motherboard? Thanks!
Mmm I'm not sure it it's the same process for tours, but for my board, the instructions asked me to rename the bios file to Gigabyte.bin in order for it to work.
@@KevinMuldoon unfortunately I don't think the engineers provide that information in the bios. I think the only way to know is if you look at the motherboard power stage product number which is under the vrm heatsink. That would require you to unscrew the vrm heatsink and take a look at the power stage directly.
Mmm I'm never done that before so not sure whether I want to remove it haha. I have version 1.2 of the board, so surely I have 70amp? Alternatively, there's surely a script that helps show this.
Well I had this motherboard for about 4 months working fine and all of sudden one day I wake up tryina play and it won’t turn on my pc no more so I thought it was my psu or something like that and me and buddy ran a couple of tests and we found out it was my motherboard this same motherboard and idk if got a defective one but ohh man it’s frustrating I’m goin to ship it hopefully I get a good one that’s well if not idk I might change the brand
Hello! Love your video. I have a recent build I did with this board. I'm having issue with bluetooth. It's built-in, so there's no header to connect to make this work, right? I can get my headset to 'pair' but it will never connect & show my headphones as a choice for output. I've updated all the drivers including the chipset. Wifi also works fine, which is another function of that combo. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.
@@KevinMuldoon I'm able to pair my headphones to my phone just fine. I don't really have another bluetooth device to try as my G502(mouse) uses a dongle. I can pair my phone to my computer successfully, but I'm not really sure what else to do with that. Any advice is welcome. Thanks!
@@KevinMuldoon Thanks for the input, Kev. I'll report back with what I end up finding out. Worst case scenario I just install a card from my previous build. Disappointing as that may be considering it's one of the reasons I chose this board was for bluetooth built in, but ce la vie.
hi i cant get my voice to come through ps4 remote play whilst using slobs i was wondering if you could help me? ive tried plugging my mic in directly to the pc with my headset and still doesnt work and if it does register my voice doesnt move on the little mic on the right hand side of the screen can anyone help me?
PS4 Remote Play is more a workaround for streaming than a long term solution. Latency will be an issue. Any microphone you plug directly into your PC should work with SLOBS though. Have you tested they work with your PC on their own?
@@KevinMuldoon yeah im planning getting a capture card when i can save some money so its just a short term solution, the pc picks it up but in audio in obs looks like its constantly making noise when im not talking and on the ps4 remote play mic is just highlighted with no voice coming through its possibly just the headset and need to buy a new one but been tearing my hair out lol
With these things, it's the power of elimination. You need to isolate the microphone and test it outside of the remote play setup. If that works, you need to test it with SLOBS without remote play. I would only send gameplay through remote play, not the mic.
@@KevinMuldoon it works barely it cuts out sometimes when i stream normally, but i haven't tried just using it on obs live , i tried going in a party myself too to see if it would pick up and no luck 🙈
It's not a great setup to be honest. I tried it to see how it would work, but it just wasn't a good long-term solution (or even a short-term solution).
@@KevinMuldoon Ok on mine just got the light under the heat sink part that's it I thought it had more on the bottom and a strip next to it I got it inside lian li space grey edition it could be the case to dark
@@KevinMuldoon I've already got the Coolermaster C700P black edition in my current build so I'll stick with that. I'm just replacing the mobo and CPU so not really a full build.
Man, I have same mobo with 3950X and it was worst thing I did in my life. PC crashes all the time. Any program spend long time to open an sometimes freezes. I have changed all my hardware 3 times, and still horrible. I do not know what I do. I will request gigabyte to give my money back, because I used ryzen in other pc and it works fine.
@kevinmuldoon So I have this motherboard and 4 months after it stopped working and I was not happy about it and now I’m goin to ship it tomorrow and replace it hopefully I could get one that works well and idk why it stopped working I’m guess it came defective but idk and I have a ryzen 9 5900x and yeah idk if some parts come defective or I had bad luck with this product but I’m give it another chase

Reset your memory timings too to rule out that being an issue.
Ideally, you want to check your PSU, memory, GPU on another system. I'd want to check the system using Linux or a fresh windows install too to rule out this bring a driver or memory issue.
Being honest, i don't think freezes will be coming from the motherboard. Seems more like a GPU, memory, Windows or driver issue to me.

Yeah they've said this is the last generation, but it would be good if we get one more. I'm not too bothered either way as I'll get a few years out of it at least.
Looking forward to actually building the thing haha.
I think this is the last outing due to ddr 5. I wanted a good upgrade from 2700x & more than 5ghz (just psychological desire) and this ticked all boxes.

Good. This is the revised version of motherboard where the completely removed the capacitor that was dangerously close to the CPU socket, causing problems with some build during CPU cooler placement. Good update!

Basically sold it for what I paid £550. Problem is though, I seriously thought that I’d get a 3080 in January and that looks like it’ll never happen and it looks like all the 30 series prices are due to go up at MSRP, so expect the scalping prices to go up.
End of the day, for my use with Edius the CPU is more important than the GPU. The 3070 was great for gaming but after trying my best with some PC games, which played great on the 3070, I’m just as crap on PC as I’ve always been 😆 For me personally, the latest Xbox or PlayStation are a much better buy for gaming. Although I do prefer to play in 4K or the highest resolution possible, the GTX 1660 with my i9 is great for 1080 PC gaming if I ever want to mess about on PC for gaming. I doubt I’ll look at another RTX until Edius does GPU processing or if I maybe go over to Resolve at some point.
Cheers,
Dave.
Yeah from a workflow point of view, Windows definitely suits me better.
I was reluctant to change from Premiere Pro as I had used it for several years, but when they started being assholes to me, I jumped. I'm glad I did. It took me a couple of video edits to get used to it all, but I'm getting there now.
I love how audio and colours and everything is all integrated into one interface.
Yeah I don't think the M1 would replace anything I have now, but it would be good for a computer somewhere around the house.
It's PC I play games on, which is another reason why I wanted a new GPU.
I've picked the worst time to build a new PC though ;)
Kevin
I just used a monitoring website to get a 3060ti etc etc from amazon. 5950x is a beast. My use is for vms.
Nice one. So do you have most components now?
that is the combo i will be using, well when i can buy a CPU...
Hi Kevin I subbed and watched your video on the Tweak 2 software just picked up an Strix 3090 and looked on your site do you have a video on Tweak 3 or do you recommend staying with Tweak 2?
Hey KB. I've not used Tweak III yet. I still use afterburner, but I should really give it a try.
Just picked mine up from Microcenter. Same board and chip. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your build.
Nice one. Which other components have you bought?
@@KevinMuldoon already had the rest. Swapping out board and chip on previous build
Ahhh nice.
Mine isn't going well. I've had the CPU for about a month as there's a major delay on everything.
My SSD is now delayed at least a week and my AIO cooler is delayed about two weeks.
I'm not sure whether to look at alternatives or just wait it out. Frustrating.
@@KevinMuldoon That sucks. Sorry to hear. I had to run out and get different memory. Mine weren't on the compatible memory list and wouldn't run at 3600 mhz.
Oh that's a pain. What memory didn't work? Does the new memory work fine?
I cancelled my SSD and AIO Cooler orders and ordered from Amazon UK. Moving forward, I'll ideally get more parts from Amazon so I don't have to deal with all this, but they're not always the best place to buy computing equipment.
Have you had any issues with this motherboard? Would you still recommend it for my new 5900x? Or do you have a better option? I've heard some have had issues with not turning on. I found this used for $280 for 1.0. Is there a problem with 1.0 with 5900x?
Initially, yes. This motherboard, and most other AMD motherboards, didn't power USB ports correctly. This issue has been resolved now.
I've had this motherboard since it first was released and the fact this baby can run a 5950x and run against the best of them is actually fucking insane.
Was is quite buggy in the beginning?
@@KevinMuldoon yes but they really fixed it in later bios updates
I was looking through your PC build videos and we have a lot of things common.. First, we both have same board(mine is Rev. 1.0 as I bought it at launch of 3000 series with 3700X and its fine with me as I dont use thunderbolt) and cpu.
Also what is common is we both use Corsair AX series PSU, the difference is I bought 1600i(last week) operating on single rail mode.
Also similar is we both have 3090 Aorus edition, I got two of them but Xtreme Varient(One bought in November, and another last week along with AX1200i). Not using it in SLI mode for gaming as there's no need. But two cards are used for my 3D work stuff.
Wow. Yeah looks like I copied you 😁👍
The 1600i is a beast. It's £449.99 here in the UK. Are you using it for mining or is the extra overhead to accommodate both 3090s being overclocked.
@@KevinMuldoon No, no mining.. And its INR 40K here in India..
I use them for rendering my 3d scenes
Ahhh nice. So do you have a TH-cam channel or is this for professional applications?
@@KevinMuldoon Well I do this for living actually.. 😅
The last two cards I was using were 2 X GTX 1080 Xtreme Gaming
Nice one. I sold my 1080 TI a few months ago.
Have you had any problems with the vram in your 3090 overheating?
Did you have to update your bios for the new cpu. Also little confused about how to update your bios. Heard to update you only need the power supply to update or you can update with all your components installed?
Yes I had to update the bios. This was something I had planned to do earlier, but didn't do it until the build was complete (of course, there's no harm in doing it last).
You just need to download the firmware to a USB drive and then connect it to the bios usb port. On my board, I had to rename the file to Gigabyte.bin and insert it into the Q Flash USB port and then hit the flash bios button.
It's straightforward and I wasn't even connected to the monitor when I flashed it.
I think you're right in that you only need the power connected.
@@KevinMuldoon thank you for the reply. I'm building my first pc with this motherboard. Little scary but now I now how to. Thanks again
You're welcome. I'm sure you'll be fine. 👍
Nice Video! Which cooler did you go with ?
The Asus Strix LC 360 RGB. I'm working on a dedicated review for it right now, but I'm changing it.
@@KevinMuldoon looking forward to your review! I'm planning to go with corsair H100i. I don't do much over clocking, so confused if I'll really need a liquid cooler. I love your content! keep up the good work.
Thanks Surya. Appreciate it. I'll hopefully get that review published within the next few days.
Gonna have the same motherboard and cpu! Also i have a question, is the psu corsair rm 850x ATX 12 V compatible to the motherboard? cuz i will have a corsair crystal 680x boitier so
Yeah it's compatible. That should handle higher end GPUs like 3090s too.
@@KevinMuldoon Thank you so much! sir
@@KevinMuldoon Also whats the best motherboard x570 for ryzen 9 5900x for video editing and gaming ^
I'm not sure there is any particular one that is best. Sure, the higher end ones tend to have better cooling for the VRM etc, but it mostly comes down to connectivity etc.
That is, how many USB ports, whether you need thunderbolt 3 connections, what speed you need for ethernet etc.
I’m new to pc gaming and upgrading my PC, I’m buying these two.what graphics card would say to buy?
It really depends on what games you play, your budget etc.
The 3000 series Nvidia cards and 6000 series AMD cards are much cheaper right now, and the newer 4000 series cards are just around the corner so they may drop further (but no guarantee).
@@KevinMuldoon thanks I’ll check out the 3000 series, thanks for that reply 👍🏻
how is this board after 2 years?
It's doing great. I was using it tonight to edit a video.
There were a number of issues I the beginning with USB not working, but those were resolved via bios updates. Never had any issues since.
Are the USB/sound dropout issues fixed for you? Had Gigabyte or AMD came out with a software updates to address these issues?
Not as yet. If you check my latest videos, you can see I've did a couple of videos about the topic.
No solution as yet though.
Good vid... I built exact same. Qflash required... Good products.
How have you found the motherboard so far?
@@KevinMuldoon solid board. I got my kids to build it. (kept them entertained over Christmas for a bit)
Nice. Yeah the build quality is solid.
Great video. What's your take on the CMOS battery issue? I've seen a lot of complaints about having to completely take out the CMOS battery and put it back in for reset pretty regularly. I really, really want this board, but I don't want to have to take apart my rig on a regular basis either. You can read all about the issues if you google "gigabyte aorus master x570 cmos battery" and you'll get a bunch of results.
I haven't experienced any issues like that at all. I have the latest version of the board though so perhaps it's something they've fixed.
The only issues I've had were actually caused my a PCIE riser.
Heads up Josh. I've encountered one small issue. Still trying to resolve it.
USB seems to disconnect regularly. My camera still works when run through my thunderbolt 3 hub, but when one single camera is connected, it freezes after just a few seconds. Seems like a power/sleep issue.
There's a lot of people talking about it, but I'm going to update to the latest drivers and bios before reviewing.
Someone did mention that these issues are resolved when you change from gen 4 to gen 3. That's something I may have to do if necessary, but I'll try and fix it first.
I hope I've not spoke to soon, but the new bios seems to have fixed the issue I had. There's new power options there. Everything seems fine.
@@KevinMuldoon I've already ordered it after your first reply. Haha. Even if there is an issue, I'm pretty tech savvy, so I'll either live with it or get a replacement later. It's just too good of a board to pass up for my specific needs.
@@KevinMuldoon Interesting. Are you saying that gen 3 seems to be more stable right now? That makes sense, but I want to make sure. I haven't found a 5900x yet. I might just buy a 3900x if that's the case.
are you having isssues with the battery i've seen comments where the motherboard wont start and peep have to remove the battery and put it back after 5-10 min to get it to start again
Hi Kevin.
No I've not had the issue. I do have an issue with Gen 4 speeds though which I'm hoping Gigabyte will fix.
I have this motherboard and 4 months after it stopped working and it wouldn’t turn on no more idk if I got defective one but damm it’s frustrating man
Why are you not using m.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe 1 TB drives like WD sn850 with 7000 MB/s read and 5,300 MB/s write, the boards made for type speed as long as the GPU is PCIe 4.0.. The 1.1/1.2 Rev also has a major update to the memory lanes that allow for good overclocking of the memory, I think the Rev 1 was only up to about 4000mhz, the 1.1/1.2 is about 5100mhz. One other point, its the coolest running VRMs out of all x570 boards almost, (water).
I'm using the Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus. It's gen four and faster than the SN850. The other drives are brought over from my other pc. They're still quick.
I'm planning on getting that motherboard soon, I already got my 5800X from amazon at msrp :D
Nice one. Apart from the USB problems a few months ago, it's been a good board.
@@KevinMuldoon that’s good, I went ahead and bought the motherboard at B&H Photo and paid $19 more for 1 day shipping, should be here Thursday
Nice one. I'm sure you'll like it.
@@KevinMuldoon how did you repair the usb problems?
The latest bios has resolved the issue.
Just a heads up, you are not pointing at the right THB_C port... it's directly above the SATA connectors.
Thanks. Yeah I found that out later when I checked the manual and did the build. 👍👍👍
@@KevinMuldoon I am quite upset that I have the rev 1.0 model. I am wanting to get an Apollo TB3 DAC but can't now... looks like USB3 it is
Oh that's a pain. I would have returned mine if it didn't have it as it's essential for me connecting drives and other accessories.
You could use USB 3.1 I guess.
@@KevinMuldoon ya I got mine March of 2020 so I do not think it was available yet, you live and you learn haha! I will fair with usb 3.0. 20gbps is still more than enough for audio application... for you though that 40gbps is sweet.
It will come in handy for me as I'm connecting many cameras. When I'm able to connect most cameras directly to the motherboard, I won't need all the bandwidth. Still, gives me the option of connecting Thunderbolt 3 storage and egpus.
I'm upgrading my cpu from 3900x to 5950x
Did you have to update the mobo bios?
Mine was a new build so both the new CPU and motherboard were new. If I was only upgrading the CPU, I'd definitely check for bios updates as they usually improve compatibility.
@KevinMuldoon My original build was around this time in 2020 and I'm doing a sort of lateral build.
Before I go to the 7000 series AM5 board or decide to go Intel next build.
I wanted to upgrade as much as possible before I switch mobo.
So I went with the 5950x, 128gb of 3600 ddr4 & the main upgrade was my GPU.
The RTX 4090.. because I went with that, I bought a better PSU as well... I got an EVGA 1600w Gold on sale.
I'll update the bios before I put in the new cpu.
Nice one. That will still be a powerful PC.
I believe it should be a relatively easy upgrade. Don't think there's much to do beyond swapping the CPU, but could be worth checking the bios to check settings are correct.
Don't flip me off man! Great video! I didn't know how to check the revision. Just got mine and it's 1.2
I was sweating when I got mine too. I just assumed I had got an old revision 😁
I know it’s old but tells you the revision bottem left side of the motherboard printed in the corner :)
Did you get the thunderbolt card working? It’s not working on mine :(
Yeah it works fine 👍
@@KevinMuldoon Was there any specific settings in your bios? Mine is only giving me options to treat the card as a usb type c card. Also curious what drivers/thunderbolt fw you have.
First things first, have you checked your motherboard supports the card from the official compatible list. Is there a thunderbolt header there for the cable?
@@KevinMuldoon yessir I have a TBC 5 pin header on my x750 aorus master rev1.2 and that's approved on their site. However Gigabyte's website has been pretty outdated and I can't get in contact with their support team as they're doing a complete restructure after having their website held for ransom.
I'm not sure why it's not working. I migrated mine from my older motherboard and didn't have any problems. If possible, I'd try and troubleshoot it by testing it on another board.
Did you need to flash the bios with an older chip?
Any CPU will do.
Have you tried the GC-TITAN RIDGE in this motherboard yet? Success?
Yes I use it every day. It's what my thunderbolt 3 hub connects to 👍
@@KevinMuldoon Nice! I was debating on getting this board vs the Vision D.. I have a z390 Master and it's just a solid motherboard but I also need that thunderbolt connection. Super good to know that it's working out for you. I have one more question. One thing that was common with the Z390 master is a sort of coil whine or funny noise around the VRMs on occasion. Do you hear anything weird coming off this board? Thanks for responding to me!
You're welcome.
I have noticed electrical buzzing. I'm noticing it a little more as it's in an open case. It's not really a whine though and it's difficult to pinpoint it exactly (apart form knowing it's not the AIO or GPU or fans etc). I'm moving it to a closed case so shouldn't be an issue.
The bigger concern is the AMD gen 4 problem. They've rolled out a new bios update to fix if, but I still can't use Gen 4 for the GPU. Quite frustrating (I've covered this on my channel recently).
@@KevinMuldoon Yeah I hesitate to call it a coil whine too as it's obviously not whatever that noise could be. Disabling CStates did help it a bit but it's really a minor nitpick as the board overall is so good. I haven't seen the the GEN 4 issue. Will check that out... thanks again!
Yeah it's important to note. They've not fully resolved it yet. I'm still having issues with it.
usb 4.0 will beat out thunderbolt 3 anyway, cuz its a intel vs USB pantent. anyway u can get solutions for thunderbolt or things that make u setup getting oki. and also pci cards.
I have an x470 aorus, currently running a 7 2700x flawlessly. I bought a 7 5800x. A total disaster : reboot, mad temperature etc.. tried everything (last bios, tuning in amd’s software). I sent back the cpu. I’m now more skeptical with gigabyte mobo with high end cpu 😓
Sorry to hear that. It's an older board, but they're supposed to support the latest generation of Ryzen chips.
@@KevinMuldoon indeed they are, but in fact forums are packed with users complaining : crazy temperature, bsod, reboot.. something's weird with these AMD chips 😕
I did a video about the USB issues recently. Publishing another video about it later.
Apart from that, I haven't had any issues with temperatures etc.
@@KevinMuldoon Thx, I saw it. Had no usb problems, but instant reboot while pushing the cpu (gaming, rendering...)
Oh man that's bad. Yeah I've been stable. The only thing that really gave me problems was the use of riser cables.
I just order a built i added vengace ram x4 8GB i was wondering if its ok to fill all 4 slots or leave a space with 2
Yeah it's fine using two memory slots or four.
how does this board do with a lot of usb devices plugged to it? I have 2 computers and both of them have had issues with having their usb controllers overwhelmed. one was just for vr with oculus sensors and my main one had about 6 external drives and a few other usb items.
All AMD motherboards have been terrible with USB connections this year due to a problem with the AMD AGESA, but they're rolling out bios updates that should fix this.
I'm hoping to run most of my cameras through it, but I also use a thunderbolt 3 hub for additional devices.
@@KevinMuldoon wow that was a quick reply. my vr build is actually intel, will a thunderbolt hub work on this motherboard and help reduce the stress on the usb controllers? I am looking to get a new motherboard and I really like this one.
The key thing for me was the thunderbolt connector. It's not something you see on a lot of boards.
I've talked about the usb issue over the last two months, but I'm going to test the new bios today or tomorrow and talk about it in my next video.
@@KevinMuldoon ok I will sub and look out for that video. I hope it works out. thanks again.
Good luck. My other videos about AMD over the last few weeks will help explain the issue 👍
If there's anything else you want me to check, just let me know.
Is this motherboard better or the msi Meg x570 unify?
I haven't used that motherboard, but looking at the specs at www.msi.com/Motherboard/MEG-X570-UNIFY/Specification, it looks really good.
@@KevinMuldoon Ok thanks
Hello. when I open Google Chrome and browse some website the temperatures rise up to 70 degrees and then settle at 50 degrees. I would be grateful if you would give me an answer. Thank you
That's such an open ended vague question, I wouldn't even know where to start. I know nothing about your setup to even take a guess.
I'm trying to install windows but I it freezes at the aorus logo and it comes up with a b1 q code on the mobo. What do I do to fix it? I'm using a 3900x with the board
Start disconnecting things and see if it can boot with just the CPU and one memory module. Then plug everything on one by one, testing along the way.
My Motherboard which is the B550I AORUS PRO AX, Says 1.0, and on the specifications page it says 1.0 supports 5000 series CPU’S, So does that mean I can still turn it on boot everything, and maybe later update the bios?
Yes it sounds like it. Just make sure your bios is up to date so it's supported.
@@KevinMuldoon Yeah I think when the whole build is done ill just update it too the latest. All I really need is for it to boot into windows Thanks! And nice video because I didn’t know you could check you REV! Have a good day.
@@KevinMuldoon Sorry, I have one more question so I have F11 Bios Update saved to a flash drive, The only real question I have is if I want to qflash it, do I have to rename it or can I just leave it as is in the flash drive and then just qflash my motherboard? Thanks!
Mmm I'm not sure it it's the same process for tours, but for my board, the instructions asked me to rename the bios file to Gigabyte.bin in order for it to work.
@@KevinMuldoon Alright, do you know what page you found that on? thanks
Can i install 2 nvme crucial P2 on this Mainboard?????
You can install up to three directly to the motherboard. More m2 drives could be connected via PCIE m2 cards.
Can you confirm if they are using 70A power stages or are they still using the early engineering sample 50A power stages
Hi Christian. I'm going to be building the PC within the next few days.
Can that be checked via the bios?
@@KevinMuldoon unfortunately I don't think the engineers provide that information in the bios. I think the only way to know is if you look at the motherboard power stage product number which is under the vrm heatsink. That would require you to unscrew the vrm heatsink and take a look at the power stage directly.
Mmm I'm never done that before so not sure whether I want to remove it haha.
I have version 1.2 of the board, so surely I have 70amp?
Alternatively, there's surely a script that helps show this.
@@KevinMuldoon no worries more than likely they went with 70A I'll look into it later.
does that motherboard lanes all run gen 4???
Yes it does.
Hey man any issues with this board yet? Some ppl say it stops posting after some time.
I've not had any issues with posting. I only experienced the usb power issue.
Well I had this motherboard for about 4 months working fine and all of sudden one day I wake up tryina play and it won’t turn on my pc no more so I thought it was my psu or something like that and me and buddy ran a couple of tests and we found out it was my motherboard this same motherboard and idk if got a defective one but ohh man it’s frustrating I’m goin to ship it hopefully I get a good one that’s well if not idk I might change the brand
Hello! Love your video. I have a recent build I did with this board. I'm having issue with bluetooth. It's built-in, so there's no header to connect to make this work, right? I can get my headset to 'pair' but it will never connect & show my headphones as a choice for output. I've updated all the drivers including the chipset. Wifi also works fine, which is another function of that combo. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Yeah you don't need to connect any header.
Are you getting Bluetooth issues with all devices or just your headphones?
What about mice, keyboard?
@@KevinMuldoon I'm able to pair my headphones to my phone just fine. I don't really have another bluetooth device to try as my G502(mouse) uses a dongle. I can pair my phone to my computer successfully, but I'm not really sure what else to do with that. Any advice is welcome. Thanks!
@@Adv3r5ity I'd try and connect other devices too. If also make sure you've got the latest Bluetooth driver via Intel's support assistant.
@@KevinMuldoon Thanks for the input, Kev. I'll report back with what I end up finding out. Worst case scenario I just install a card from my previous build. Disappointing as that may be considering it's one of the reasons I chose this board was for bluetooth built in, but ce la vie.

hi i cant get my voice to come through ps4 remote play whilst using slobs i was wondering if you could help me? ive tried plugging my mic in directly to the pc with my headset and still doesnt work and if it does register my voice doesnt move on the little mic on the right hand side of the screen can anyone help me?
PS4 Remote Play is more a workaround for streaming than a long term solution. Latency will be an issue.
Any microphone you plug directly into your PC should work with SLOBS though. Have you tested they work with your PC on their own?
@@KevinMuldoon yeah im planning getting a capture card when i can save some money so its just a short term solution, the pc picks it up but in audio in obs looks like its constantly making noise when im not talking and on the ps4 remote play mic is just highlighted with no voice coming through its possibly just the headset and need to buy a new one but been tearing my hair out lol
With these things, it's the power of elimination. You need to isolate the microphone and test it outside of the remote play setup.
If that works, you need to test it with SLOBS without remote play.
I would only send gameplay through remote play, not the mic.
@@KevinMuldoon it works barely it cuts out sometimes when i stream normally, but i haven't tried just using it on obs live , i tried going in a party myself too to see if it would pick up and no luck 🙈
It's not a great setup to be honest. I tried it to see how it would work, but it just wasn't a good long-term solution (or even a short-term solution).

Yes they do.
