Verdict

The Gigabyte X670 Gaming X AX is a robust ATX motherboard for the AMD AM5 platform, featuring a high-end 16+2+2 phase digital VRM design and support for DDR5 memory speeds up to 8000MHz via EXPO and XMP profiles. It provides extensive storage and connectivity through one PCIe 5.0 x4 M.2 slot, three PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 slots, Wi-Fi 6E, 2.5GbE LAN, and a versatile rear I/O including a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C port. Main pros include its competitive price-to-performance ratio, tool-less M.2 and PCIe EZ-Latch designs for easy building, and a massive array of 13 rear USB ports. However, some cons include the lack of a dedicated AIO pump header on some revisions, relatively basic onboard audio, and the absence of a DisplayPort.
