We populated all four slots with our 32GB test memory and had no issues running them at 3200 MHz (platform base spec) or 3600 MHz, what the memory is rated for and what AMD says is the sweet spot. On the right side of the socket we can see the four reinforced DIMM slots that use a locking mechanism on both sides. If the integrated RGBs are not enough, the five total headers solve that problem. The first is a 3-pin addressable header (5A/5V), while the 4-pin is a standard header supporting up to 2A/12V. In the upper-right corner are two (of five) RGB LED headers. All on-board fan headers are of the hybrid variety and support both PWM and DC powered fans. Moving over to the right of the socket above the DRAM slots are two more headers (CPU and CPU_OPT). To the left of the EPS connectors is the first (of seven) 4-pin fan/pump headers. The setup, while not the most robust we’ve seen, should handle all the Ryzen CPUs at stock speed and overclocked when using ambient cooling. Power is sent to the VRMs via a required 8-pin EPS as well as an optional 4-pin both located in the upper-left corner. In order to reach the 12 total phases on the board, Infineon IR3599 phase quadruple/doublers are used on the CPU side (in doubled mode), along with 40A PowIRstage IR3553 MOSFETs. These are controlled by an Infineon IR35201 6 + 2 phase controller. Gigabyte lists the VRMs as a 12 + 2 setup. In the end, the heatsink design had no issues handling or Ryzen 7 3700X and would likely not flinch with a more powerful chip. Gigabyte also uses 1.5mm-thick thermal conductivity pads said to transfer 2.7 times more heat than traditional thermal pads. The fin design - the company says - increases heat dissipation area by 300% when compared to traditional heatsinks of the same size.

The VRM heatsinks are a bit different than most we see and use a fin array instead of a more block-like heatsink. The VRM heatsinks are connected to each other via a direct-touch heatpipe (the heatpipe is in direct contact with the VRM ICs), which Gigabyte says provides 30% lower MOSFET temperatures. Starting at the top of the board, the Aorus Ultra provides shrouds to cover up some of the more unsightly parts of the motherboard/VRMs. So instead of integrating the buttons on board, this small PCB is used instead. Outside of the typical basic accessories, the Ultra includes a small PCB that plugs into the front panel header for power and reset button functionality.

The Aorus Ultra includes the basics in terms of accessories, with install guides, SATA cables, Wi-Fi antenna, screws, temperature sensors and more. USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps): 2x Type-A, 1x Type-C, USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps): 3x Type-A, USB 2.0: 4x Type-AĪMD 2-Way and Quad-GPU Crossfire, Nvidia 2-Way and Quad SLI Performance was right around all of the other X570 motherboards tested.ġ4 phase / 12 + 2 (doubled, 6+2 controller) It managed to run through stock testing and overclocking without a hitch. But our overall experience the X570 Aorus Ultra was positive. This Aorus board is priced notably cheaper than those models, so some features may be passed up here in favor of the lower price. Its direct competition includes boards like the ASRock Phantom Gaming X, the Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero, and the X570 Aorus Master.

The Gigabyte X570 Aorus $300 price point lands it on lower end of X570 mid-range boards.
#GIGABYTE ULTRA DURABLE BIOS JUMPER PRO#
Gigabyte’s X570 lineup includes common board sizes and a wide range of price points, from the entry-level X570 UD to the flagship X570 Aorus Xtreme offering a bit of something for everyone, even a Mini-ITX board in the X570-I Aorus Pro Wi-Fi. The Aorus Ultra fits that mold, while offering a wide array of functionality at a reasonable price point. Gigabyte’s Aorus boards are the company’s gaming and enthusiast lineup, usually including features such as RGB LEDs, metal “armor” on the DIMM and/or PCIe slots, electrostatic discharge (ESD) guards, along with more of a focus on styling.
