B550 mainboards support all features of the Ryzen processors of the third and fourth generation, especially the PCI Express standard in version 4.0 (PCIe 4.0). PCIe 4.0 is backward compatible and can be used with all expansion cards from previous generations. In addition, the mainboards support up to 128 GB of RAM with a guaranteed clock speed of 3200 megahertz. With overclocking, much higher clock rates are possible, depending on the mainboard. The B550 chipset also enables the processor to be overclocked.
The features of the Gigabyte B550 Vision D at a glance:
- 2x PCIe 4.0 x16 (x16 / x8) and 1x PCIe 3.0 x16 (x4)
- 2x USB 3.1 Type A / 2x USB 3.1 Type C / 6x USB 3.0 / 6x USB 2.0
- 2x M.2 (1x PCIe 4.0 x4 and SATA6G / 1x PCIe 4.0 x4) / 4x SATA 6G
- DDR4 memory up to 5200 MHz using OC
- Ready for AMD Ryzen 3000 processors
- With integrated Wi-Fi 6-AX200 and Bluetooth 5.1
The equipment of the Gigabyte B550 Vision D in detail
The Gigabyte B550 Vision D is an ATX mainboard and has two PCI Express 4.0 slots for graphics cards plus a PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot with four lanes. The four RAM banks support up to 128 GB DDR4 RAM with a clock rate of up to 3200 megahertz and can even handle clock rates up to 5200 MHz via OC.
The AM4 mainboard provides two M.2 slots. The slots are connected with four PCI Express lanes and accept cards up to 110 mm (22110). One slot is also connected with the SATA-6G protocol. M.2 SSDs with the advanced NVM Express protocol (NVMe) and a connection via four PCI Express 4.0 lanes support data transfer rates of up to 8 GByte / s and are twice as fast as via PCI Express 3.0.
Modern and diverse connection options
The Gigabyte B550 Vision D has two USB 3.1 ports with type C socket, two USB 3.1 ports with type A socket (red), four USB 3.0 type A on the I / O panel -Ports (blue) and two USB 2.0 ports (type A) ready. The USB Type-C port can be plugged in on both sides, is particularly thin, and USB ports with this standard generally support the quick-charge function of smartphones and tablets. USB 3.1 reaches maximum speeds of 10 Gbit / s per port. An HDMI connection is available for CPUs with an integrated graphics unit such as AMD's Picasso APUs.
Furthermore, this B550 mainboard offers features such as a WLAN / BT module, two Gigabit LAN ports (Intel), on-board sound (Realtek ALC1220-VB audio codec), reinforced PCIe slots and numerous internal headers. Also on Bo (a) rd are OC features, an optimized power supply and diagnostic LEDs.
A special feature of the Gigabyte B550 Vision D are the three 4-pin RGB headers and two 3-pin RGB headers. Furthermore, up to eight fans can be connected directly to the board.
