The premium feature,Q-Flash Plus, which allows for quick BIOS updates without the need to install any other components, is typically reserved for only flagship models of motherboards but is a standard feature for the GIGABYTE X670 line.

Another upgrade to the user experience is the new and improved GIGABYTE Control Center. This intuitive and integrated platform will automatically detect GIGABYTE hardware and provide one centralized location for users to monitor their system status and customize their hardware settings such as - RGB Fusion customizable LED lighting effects and Smart Fan 6 custom fan cooling curves. With this latest release, GCC will automatically pull the correct driver version for installed GIGABYTE hardware, ready to download with just a simple click.

If you desire instability issues, massive security breaches/issues, in cahoots with the CCP (masked, of course) and so much more ill business practices, well, go GIGABYTE! :shadedshu:

I'm a little confused by this. Didn't they just come out?
Did you mean to say: GIGABYTE Aorus motherboards have long been known for their Ultra Durable pedigree.

They are going to be offering bios support that much, because of AMD's decision to offer extended support on AM5 anyway.

which is amazing. I see modern motherboards and just wonder why they are so expensive. Yes, PCIe 4.0/5.0, but other than that? Modern motherboards look so empty and simple, no wonder manufacturers are covering them with pieces of plastic for ...aesthetic reasons.

Oh... Lawd, not this: "but... but... but... others do it" kindergarten / playground tactics BS... again!

I wonder, where would Apple, NVIDIA, etc. be now if they tried to use that weak analogy too?! :roll:

"Ultra Durable" I had back to back motherboards that failed during the three-year warranty period. To me, that does NOT say reliable. I may have considered them again with the 5-year warranty if it was not for the last RMA experience from HELL! It took four months for the RMA on the last one. The first six weeks just to get an RMA started, two weeks between responses. Never again!!!

Kindergarten behavior of a child that lost it's lollipop, is to take a couple of examples and make them look like it's the norm, because maybe you have reasons to hate a company.

There are dozens of examples about Nvidia and Apple business tactics. There are dozens of examples about any company that is in the market for 20 years or more.

It would have been nice if AM5 offered more PCIe lanes.

44 lanes on X670/X670E isn't enough for you?
I presume you mean you would like to see boards with more PCIe slots over M.2 slots, rather than more PCIe lanes?

It's never about just a firm's "business tactics/excellence" but what it is about for the WISE consumer(s ) is, is how RAPID a company addresses, and SOLVE, it's users' concerns (ethnics), like Apple, etc. does waaaAAAaaay much better than most, you know? :rockout:

Many many years ago, Plextor was the most reliable company in optical drives. And when you had a problem with one of their drives, they where sending you a new one even before you send them back the faulty one.
Then again, their drives where costing much more than the competition, so maybe they where responding so fast, because you had already payed for a second optical drive?

Using Apple as an example, is not really a strong argument. And that's my final reply here.

The only reason I'm using an ASRock motherboard was because everything else was sold out (go figure, one week before Christmas) when I could finally build my socket AM4 system and it's a mostly respectable motherboard.

Yawn. All the big PC hardware manufacturers are as bad as each other, from MSI scalping their own graphics cards to ASRock blacklisting outlets for being honest about their crappy Z490 motherboards to Asus threatening to sue people for giving one of their laptops a bad review. If you're a fanboy of any of these companies then you have brain problems. The only thing that matters is the quality of each individual product. They all produce both fantastic and godawful ones.
