The features of the Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro in detail:
The Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro ATX motherboard has 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 another PCI Express 2.0 x 16 slot with 1x connection and finally a short 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.

Two M.2 slots with PCIe connection are 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. Both slots have an integrated heatspreader. One accepts plug-in cards up to 110 mm (22110), the other can be fitted with smaller 2280 M.2 plug-in cards.

The Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro provides four Type-A USB 3.0 ports on the I / O panel. For CPUs with an integrated graphics unit such as AMD's Raven Ridge, there is an HDMI as well as a DVI-D and a VGA slot.

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, four 4-pin PWM slots for fans are also available
