Overview

Tool-free EZ-Latch clips on the storage and PCIe slots and a plug-in Wi-Fi antenna make this GIGABYTE AORUS PRO ICE board quick to build into a small case. It pairs current AMD Ryzen chips with the newest generation of desktop memory and fast wired and wireless networking.

Feature density for its size is the reason to buy, with Wi-Fi, fast LAN and the newest PCIe generation packed onto a small footprint. The small board limits expansion, with just two memory slots, one PCIe slot and two SATA ports.

Who it's for

Small form factor builders who want current AMD chips and Wi-Fi in a tiny case get a full feature set. Users with lots of hard drives or plans for heavy expansion should use a larger board.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Fast wireless and wired networking
  • PCIe 5.0 support
  • Two M.2 slots
  • Front and rear USB-C
Cons
  • Only two memory slots
  • Only two SATA ports
  • Single PCIe slot
  • Small cases limit cooler size

Performance notes

Power stage capacity governs how steadily the board feeds high core count chips under long loads, and small boards cool their VRMs with less heatsink area. Memory runs in two slots only, so capacity is set by module size rather than count.
