Gigabyte’s B450 Aorus Pro retails for around £100 and for the most part has everything you need to build a typical modern PC. If you need a couple of hard disks, an SSD, and single graphics card, you’ll lose little compared to an X470 board, and you even get ALC1220 audio and Intel-powered LAN.

Our success with the X470 Aorus Gaming 7 WIFI gives us high hopes for the lesser B450 Aorus Pro board, but Gigabyte does hold back on some features that could have made this board spectacular. Regardless, the B450 chipset is a sweet spot for builders and gamers who don’t need X470’s added feature set, and Gigabyte delivers a great product with the B450 Aorus Pro WIFI, at a surprisingly affordable $120 MSRP.

What we’re really looking for with the B450 Pro, priced at around £100, is a collection of board-improving technologies. The first of these is the integrated I/O shield – always a reviewer’s favourite – and though it’s plastic and sits directly on top of the dual VRM-cooling heatsinks, it’s still a nice touch.

The GIGABYTE X399 Designare EX is a motherboard designed to be both feature-packed and reliable. Its list of features is very long and, despite the massive size of the processor’s socket and the eight DDR4 RAM slots, the dimensions of the GIGABYTE X399 Designare EX are exactly those of a typical ATX motherboard, allowing it to be installed inside any typical ATX-compliant case.

The short list of uncommon features Gigabyte adds to this board includes a DisplayPort-to-HDMI 2.0 adapter for one of the three display outputs, a pair of Intel Gigabit Ethernet ports, and Intel’s latest CNVi-based 1.73Gb/s Wi-Fi module.
