Verdict

The Gigabyte B450 I Aorus Pro Wi-Fi is a compact Mini-ITX motherboard featuring the AMD B450 chipset and AM4 socket, supporting Ryzen processors up to the 5000 series. It is equipped with a 4+2 phase digital VRM design, dual-channel DDR4 slots supporting up to 64GB at 3600MHz (O.C.), and a single NVMe PCIe Gen3 x4 M.2 slot with an integrated Thermal Guard heatsink. Main characteristics include high-end Intel 802.11ac Wave2 Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5, Intel Gigabit LAN, and the Realtek ALC1220-VB audio codec for enhanced 7.1-channel sound. Its primary pros are the robust power delivery for its size, excellent onboard connectivity with dual HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.2 outputs, and multi-zone RGB Fusion 2.0 lighting. However, notable cons include the lack of a USB Type-C port, only two fan headers which may require splitters for complex builds, and the absence of a second M.2 slot found on some competing ITX boards.
