What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).

GIGABYTE B760M H DDR4 offers good price-performance, all the important connections, and good cooling for everyday use.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about GIGABYTE B760M H DDR4

  • Two M.2 sockets let you run two SSDs.
  • The PCIe 4.0 x16 slot gives a graphics card a fast connection.
  • Integrated graphics support lets you start without a graphics card.
  • A VGA connector works with older monitors.
  • BIOS flashback updates firmware from a USB drive.
  • Twelve USB ports in total, counting headers.

What customers don't like about GIGABYTE B760M H DDR4

  • Only two memory slots limit expansion.
  • Memory is capped at 64 GB and runs at 3200 MT/s.
  • No Wi-Fi, so wireless needs an add-on card.
  • No dual BIOS, so there is no backup firmware copy.
  • No NVMe RAID support, so SSDs cannot be combined in RAID.

Verdict

A budget Intel board with two M.2 sockets, the GIGABYTE B760M H DDR4 suits a first build that will mostly do everyday work. Two M.2 slots mean you can run a system drive and a second SSD without an add-on card. The PCIe 4.0 x16 slot gives a graphics card a fast connection, and the board supports integrated graphics, so you can start without one. Its VGA connector helps with older screens, and BIOS flashback lets you update firmware from a USB drive. The limits are memory and the lack of extras: there are only two memory slots, memory tops out at 64 GB and 3200 MT/s, and there is no Wi-Fi. Pick it for a simple, sensible PC where drive space matters more than memory size or wireless features.
