The features of the Gigabyte B450 Aorus M in detail:
The Gigabyte B450 Aorus M Micro-ATX motherboard features a PCI Express 3.0 slot with full x16 connectivity for graphics cards. and a PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot with x4 connection. For additional expansion cards, the motherboard provides a PCIe 2.0 x1 slot. The four RAM banks support up to 64 GB of DDR4 memory with a clock rate of up to 2,667 megahertz and can even handle clock rates of up to 3,200 MHz via the OC.

An M.2 slot with PCIe connectivity is provided by the AM4 motherboard. M.2 SSDs with the advanced NVM Express protocol (NVMe) and four PCI Express 3.0 lane connectivity are up to eight times faster than SATA 6G hard drives and support data transfer rates of up to 32 Gb / s. s. The slot has an integrated heatspreader and accepts M.2 plug-in cards up to 110 mm (22110).

The Gigabyte B450 Aorus M provides two USB 3.1 ports with type A and four USB 3.0 ports on the I / O panel. In addition, there are two more USB 2.0 ports. For CPUs with an integrated graphics unit such as AMD's Raven Ridge, a DVI-D slot is available in addition to an HDMI.

The motherboard has several headers for static RGB elements, such as the 4-pin header for selected AMD boxed coolers. There is also a 5-pin slot for static RGB elements and two digitally addressable 3-pin slots, whose power can be set between 5V and 12V by jumper. Connected RGB elements can also be controlled via Gigabyte's RGB Fusion software, such as the RGB LED backlight of the mainboard itself. In addition, there are three 4-pin PWM slots for fans available
