GIGABYTE B650M K (AM5/ LGA 1718/ AMD/ B650/ Micro-ATX/ 5-Year Warranty/ DDR5/ 2X PCIe 4.0 M.2/ PCIe 4.0/ USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C/ 2.5GbE LAN/Motherboard)

Had an experience since the first one I received was not working. No matter what I would do the Mobo would not boot to usb to install windows or linux, infinite boot. Also would not update bios via Q flash, I had to do so using the Q flash plus button on the back of the mobo but the issue still persisted. I troubleshooted for hours but eventually narrowed it down to having to be the mobo. I was so sure I was going to try a different MB but I figured I would give them another shot since it is good value for the money. Amazon took the return and sent over a replacement OVERNIGHT, cant beat that service. New MB worked perfectly (so far). Just sucks to have wasted all that time but in the end Im glad everything is working well and I can finally enjoy my PC. I had to knock off a star for that but when it works it is very good.

A good overal performance but with an annoying high pitch coil whine. The motherboard performs well in high load conditions. I tried to troubleshoot it. The noise comes from some coils that are hidden under the heatsink near the ports side. There is not much you can do to get rid of it, covering doesn't help, changing voltages may work but not the best option. In my case stops when I take out the heatsink, but this is also not a good idea.

Only issue I had was one heatsink, facing the top of the full tower case, too tall to mount a fan with a radiator. I was able to find a think fan to put in this place. Standard 120mm did not fit. Board is running great.

One of the best motherboard I've tried. The price is so cheap yet performance is so great! So far nothing wrong with my setup! My Set-up: CPU: Ryzen 9 7900X GPU: XFX Speedster MERC319 RX 6950XT 16GB GDDR6 RAM: G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO RGB Series (AMD Expo) 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin SDRAM DDR5 5600 Performs like a champ!

don't really need to say much here. going to return this as soon as i get another motherboard for a good price. everything about it is good except the coil whine. no coil whine in bios or idle but when playing any games without a fps cap, it is noticeable but not as loud as others may say. this motherboard is a hit or miss and it's not worth the gamble. also stressing the ram causes coil whine (high pitched)
