Gigabyte X870E AORUS Elite WiFi7 AM5 ATX Motherboard DDR5
The Gigabyte X870E AORUS Elite WiFi7 is an ATX motherboard for AMD Ryzen 9000, 8000 and 7000 series processors, built around the X870E chipset. It combines high-power VRM delivery with Wi-Fi 7, PCIe 5.0 storage and dual USB4 ports for builders who need fast, reliable connectivity alongside CPU and GPU performance.
Why this product
Wi-Fi 7 and 2.5GbE for speed
It includes both Wi-Fi 7 with directional antenna and a 2.5 gigabit ethernet port, giving you multiple paths to fast network connectivity.
Four M.2 slots with PCIe 5.0
Three of the four M.2 slots run PCIe 5.0 x4, enabling fast NVMe storage without bottlenecks.
Dual USB4 with DisplayPort
Two USB4 Type-C ports support DisplayPort alternate mode and high-speed data transfer, simplifying external displays and docks.
16+2+2 phase power delivery
The VRM architecture keeps voltage steady under load, supporting CPU overclocking and multi-core workloads.
Tool-free M.2 and PCIe installation
EZ-Latch Plus and EZ-Latch Click designs let you secure drives and cards without screwdrivers.

Best for
- Builders upgrading to Ryzen 9000 who want next-generation networking and storage speeds.
- Gamers and streamers who need Wi-Fi 7 and dual USB4 for low-latency peripherals and high-bandwidth external storage.
- CPU overclocking enthusiasts relying on the 16+2+2 VRM and thermal armor for stable high-voltage operation.
- Content creators running multiple fast NVMe drives in RAID for media capture and editing workflows.
Trade-offs
- Builders with Intel processors—this board is AM5 only and does not support Intel CPUs.
- Budget builders seeking entry-level pricing; X870E is a high-end platform tier.
- Users who require legacy DDR4 memory; this board supports DDR5 only.
