  • Robust power delivery with a 12-phase digital PWM and 70A Dr.MOS, suitable for high-end 12th Gen Intel CPUs.
  • Good thermal performance with substantial VRM heatsinks that keep temperatures stable under load.
  • Aesthetic appeal with integrated RGB lighting and the 'Racing' series design.
  • Dual M.2 PCIe 4.0 slots for high-speed storage expansion.
  • Strong audio solution featuring the Realtek ALC1220 codec with gold-plated jacks.
  • Convenient layout with extra spacing between the CPU socket and the first PCIe slot to accommodate large air coolers.

What customers don't like about BIOSTAR B660GTQ

  • BIOS interface feels unpolished and less intuitive compared to major competitors like ASUS, MSI, or Gigabyte.
  • Missing rear USB-C 20Gbps (USB 3.2 Gen 2x2) port; only provides standard 10Gbps or 5Gbps connectivity.
  • No built-in Wi-Fi card included; requires a separate M.2 Wi-Fi module and antenna purchase/installation.
  • Windows-based utility software is often described as clunky or 'unpolished' by users.
  • Lacks an optical S/PDIF audio output, which may limit some home theater or high-end speaker setups.
  • Inconsistent compatibility with some third-party open-source fan control software.
  • Higher price point compared to some other B660 boards while lacking 'enthusiast' features like easy BIOS reset buttons.

Verdict

The Biostar B660GTQ is a Micro-ATX gaming motherboard built on the Intel B660 chipset, supporting 12th, 13th, and 14th Gen Intel Core processors via the LGA 1700 socket. Key technical characteristics include a robust 9-phase power design with 70A Dr.MOS, support for up to 128GB of DDR4 memory overclockable to 5000+(OC) MHz, and advanced connectivity featuring a PCIe 5.0 x16 slot, two PCIe M.2 4.0 slots for high-speed storage, and 2.5 GbE LAN. Main pros consist of its future-proof PCIe 5.0 support, excellent thermal management through integrated M.2 cooling and Armor Gear, and high-quality audio with Hi-Fi ground isolation. However, notable cons include the lack of integrated Wi-Fi (though it provides an E-key M.2 slot for adding a module), the absence of USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20Gbps) support, and a BIOS interface that some users find less polished than those from major competitors.
