Gigabyte B850M AORUS Elite WiFi 6E AM5 Micro-ATX Motherboard
The Gigabyte B850M AORUS Elite WiFi 6E AM5 is a micro-ATX motherboard for AMD Ryzen 9000, 8000 and 7000 series builders who want PCIe 5.0 storage speed, WiFi 6E connectivity and strong VRM power delivery in a compact footprint. It handles DDR5 memory overclocking to 8200 MT/s and includes thermal management for sustained performance.
Why this product
PCIe 5.0 storage and GPU slot
One M.2 slot runs at PCIe 5.0 x4 speed for next-generation NVMe drives, and the primary GPU slot is PCIe 5.0 x16 with reinforced connectors.
WiFi 6E and 2.5GbE wired
Realtek WiFi 6E with directional antenna supports 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands, backed by a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port for wired connection.
DDR5 up to 8200 MT/s
Four DIMM slots support AMD EXPO memory modules and can be overclocked to 8200 MT/s with appropriate memory.
12+2+2 phase VRM
Digital twin power delivery with thermal armor and 5 W/mk thermal pads keeps voltage stable under load.
Screwless M.2 and PCIe design
EZ-Latch Plus and EZ-Latch Click connectors let you install drives and cards without tools; heatsinks click into place.

Best for
- Ryzen 7000/8000/9000 builds in compact cases
- Builders prioritising PCIe 5.0 storage bandwidth
- Users who value WiFi 6E and wired 2.5GbE networking
- Memory overclockers targeting 8000 MT/s and higher
- Small-form-factor gaming and content creation rigs
Trade-offs
- Intel platform users: AM5 socket is AMD-only and does not support Intel processors.
- Dual-GPU setups: Only one x16 and one x4 PCIe slot limit parallel graphics card use.
- High-capacity storage: Four SATA ports and two M.2 slots mean fewer drive bays than full-size ATX boards.
- Users needing onboard video: No integrated graphics output; you must use a dedicated graphics card or APU.
