Gigabyte B850M AORUS Elite WiFi 6E ICE AM5 mATX Motherboard
The Gigabyte B850M AORUS Elite WiFi 6E ICE is a micro-ATX motherboard for AM5 socket Ryzen processors, combining modern storage and networking with space-efficient form factor. It suits builders who need WiFi 6E connectivity and PCIe 5.0 expansion in a compact footprint, without sacrificing power delivery or thermal management.
Why this product
WiFi 6E and 2.5GbE networking
Dual networking options including WiFi 6E with dedicated 6 GHz band and 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ensure fast, stable connectivity with reduced interference.
PCIe 5.0 ready
One PCIe 5.0 x16 slot and one PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot support next-generation graphics cards and NVMe SSDs at full speed.
Compact micro-ATX design
Smaller than full-size ATX but retains four DDR5 DIMM slots, dual M.2 storage, and extensive fan headers for full system control.
Thermal management for overclocking
VRM Thermal Armor, M.2 Thermal Guard heatsinks, and a 6+6 phase power design keep power delivery stable under load.
