Mid-range AMD AM5 Motherboard - Gigabyte X670 AORUS ELITE AX Unboxing & Overview

UPDATE AS OF AUGUST 2024: This video was published before 64GB DDR5 memory modules were available - according to the Gigabyte specs page, this motherboard now supports up to 256GB of RAM with 4x 64GB DDR5 memory modules. In addition, "Zen 5" Ryzen 9000 series processors and "Zen 4" Ryzen 8000 APUs are now supported with a BIOS update that is available for download from Gigabyte's official website.

With AMD's "Zen 4" Ryzen 7000 series of processors on the AM5 platform, as well as Intel's 13th generation Raptor Lake offerings in the LGA1700 package having been on the market for some time now, there's no better time to be building a new PC, especially since AMD has finally lowered prices across the board for its Ryzen 7000 offerings since Black Friday. With these revised CPU prices, the AMD AM5 platform suddenly looks a whole lot more interesting...

For today's video, ALKtech checks out a mid-range AM5 motherboard that is powered by the AMD X670 chipset - the Gigabyte X670 AORUS ELITE AX. Positioned comfortably in the middle of Gigabyte's AM5 motherboard product stack, watch on to find out if this board is any good!
