DESIGN CONCEPT

In the dark, starless night, the falcon strikes fear into the heart of its prey. Even with minimal visibility, the falcon pinpoints its prey

 and patiently anticipates the perfect moment to swoop in for the kill. The falcon with its laser sharp gaze dominates

the darkness of night in the same manner that AORUS Core Lighting illuminates the vast AORUS ecosystem.

AMD StoreMI Technology

GIGABYTE B550 motherboards maximize your PC's potential with AMD StoreMI technology.

StoreMI accelerates traditional storage devices to reduce boot times and enhance the overall user experience.

 This easy-to-use utility combines the speed of SSDs with the high capacity of HDDs into a single drive,

enhances the read/write speeds of the device to match that of SSDs, bolsters data performance for incredible value,

and transforms the everyday PC to a performance driven system.

The benefits of AMD StoreMI:

• Making the PC experience fast, smooth and easy
• Optimizing computer responsiveness from system boot to application launch
• Offering SSD performance with HDD capacity at an affordable cost
• Quickly accessing key files by automatically learning users' computing behaviors

Single 32GB Support

With populated 2 DIMMs per channel on GIGABYTE B550 motherboards, the maximum memory capacity support is 128GB.

 For users who always run out of memory capacity, they are able to enjoy more bandwidth now for memory-intensive application such as rendering and video editing.

PCIe 4.0 Hardware Design

1. PCIe 4.0 Slot

PCIe 4.0 x16 slot with faster bandwidth and lower impedance.

2. M.2 PCIe 4.0 Slot

M.2 PCIe 4.0 x4 slot with lower impedance.

* Product uses PCIe 4.0 grade material. Actual support varies by hardware configuration

Dual NVMe M.2 PCIe SSDs in RAID 0 Support

Performance with PCIe 4.0 x4 + PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe PCIe SSDs

B550 AORUS motherboards offer the industry's best compatibility in terms of NVMe storage for users

who demand high capacity and seek the best performance. AORUS' unique design can be configured in RAID for record speeds

of up to 6560 MB/s (Sequential Read), making AORUS the obvious choice for the ultimate PC.

Thermal Throttling as Temperature Rises

Smart Fan 5

With Smart Fan 5 users can ensure that their gaming PC can maintain its performance while staying cool.

Smart Fan 5 allows users to interchange their fan headers to reflect different thermal sensors at different locations on the motherboard.

Not only that, with Smart Fan 5 more hybrid fan headers that support both PWM and Voltage mode fans have been

introduced to make the motherboard more liquid cooling friendly.

Hybrid Fan Pin Headers

Assume complete control over your liquid cooling setup! Smart Fan 5 receives up-to-the-second

information on flow-rate and water-temperature through the Hybrid Fan Pin Headers, giving you absolute mastery over your PC.

All Hybrid Fan Headers can automatically detect the type of cooling device whether it be fan or pump with different PWM or Voltage mode.

Intelligent Fan Control Design

Achieve fan silence. With Fan Stop, map any fan to stop completely when temperatures drop below a specified threshold.

Which fan stops, based on readings from which sensor, and at what temperature—all of it can be customized to your liking.

New Smart Fan 5 Software

Choose from different modes, Quiet to Full Speed, to match your system usage preferences.

For each fan or pump, you can use the intuitive fan curve to define trigger thresholds and corresponding fan speeds.

NEXT GENERATION CONNECTIVITY

A high-end product needs to be future-proof so your system stays up-to-date with the latest technology.

 B550 AORUS motherboards provide all next generation network, storage, and WIFI connectivity to keep you up to speed.

Equipped with next generation connectivity, AORUS Gaming Motherboards already support the chassis of the future.

The onboard USB Type-C header for USB 3.2 Gen1 makes access convenient when connecting a USB 3.2 Gen1 device or charging your mobile device.
