GIGABYTEB760I AORUS PRO (LGA 1700/ Intel/ B760/ Mini-ITX/ DDR5/ Dual M.2/ PCIe 4.0/ USB 3.2 Gen2X2 Type-C/WiFi 6E/ Intel 2.5GbE LAN/Q-Flash Plus/Motherboard)

Recently bought the GIGABYTE B760I AORUS PRO motherboard and after a few weeks of testing here is the review:Compact Yet Mighty (★★★★★):This little MOBO surprised me. The B760I AORUS PRO is designed to be small, i am using this in a NZXT H1 and cannot reccomend it enough for a mini itx build! It is so feature rich and fits neatly into compact builds without sacrificing any performance. PCIE gen 4 for your NVME drives Im getting 3.7gb disk usage in steam downloads - 2 NVME slots and DDR5 RAM slots are a must, definitely worth getting the pro and splashing on some DDR5 6000mhz RAM.User-Friendly BIOS (★★★★★):The BIOS on this thing is surprisingly user-friendly. Even if you're not a tech genius, tweaking settings is straightforward. GIGABYTE made it easy for anyone to change basic settings like Resizable BAR and XMP in the bios.AURA Sync Magic (★★★★☆):If youre in the AURA ecosystem of RGB devices then this is a nice touch but i find the gigabyte control center to be lacking - may just be because its my only gigabyte componentCool and Calm (★★★★☆):I like the inbuilt temperature monitoring but there isnt much to tweak outside of the bios.Connectivity Check (★★★★☆):For a compact board, it's got a decent set of ports. From USB slots to HDMI, it covers the essentials. No major complaints here – everything I needed was right at my fingertips - dont forget the wifi antenna too if youre not going ethernet - although I highly recommend taking advantage of the 2.5gbe port.To sum it up, the GIGABYTE B760I AORUS PRO is a solid choice for those who want a powerful feature rich motherboard in a mini itx formfactor. It's not perfect, but for a hassle-free build with some extra flair, this little guy gets a thumbs up from me. If you're into compact and capable, give it a thought!

Couldn’t find a good deal on a decent ITX mobo so I took a shot with a “Like New” one. I gotta say, this was drastically undervalued but absolutely to my benefit. First off the shock that this board comes with a backplate that includes a built in heatsink for the additional M.2 slot was absolutely fantastic. I do not understand why more mobo manufacturers don’t do this exact thing for ITX boards. So helpful for SFF builds. I’ve been using this board in a Fractal Design Ridge for a family room PC and it’s absolutely brilliant. Almost made me want to switch out my other SFF mobo for another one of these. Easy to limit the Wattage and Voltages to keep the entire unit running within spec while maintaining temperatures.

This is a review with the bios updated to F12 sept 2024, no other updates released as of March 2025.No EZ-debug lights(but rgb yes?), can''t run ram above 3400mhz when the same ram was running 4266 cl16 with the same cpu on the MSI equivalent B760i. I've tried 5 other kits and no luck, blue screens or black screen until cmos reset*.Bios is terrible, laggy, some sections are unresponsive until you click 15 times. There are settings that freeze the bios and the motherboard has no cmos reset button. You'll have to short the pins after opening your case and moving any cables/hardware that may be in the way.*Reseting the cmos will also delete any of your bios profiles so there's no point to even having the option to save one. MSI, EVGA, ASUS, does not delete you profiles and gets you back into the bios to change settings. That's the point of a cmos reset, not act like you reflashed the bios and start from square one.I'll leave it at that, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. Won't purchase Gigabyte ever again.

I used this motherboard to do my first mini itx build. Everything went pretty smooth and I really liked the bios flash button, 3 case fan plugs and the 2 m.2 slots on the motherboard. I paired this motherboard with an Intel i7 14700k and had no trouble updating the bios with the flash bios USB port. The motherboard box also came with adapters to help utilize the 2 fan ports on the top right of the board. If you want to add more than 4 fans and one CPU pump/cooler you'll definitely need some fan spliters. The only Issue I had was with my front panel switches which aren't labeled on the MB where they go. You'll have to go online and find the manual to know how you switch should be connected. I would recommend this motherboard worked out for me and the bios is very easy to navigate.
