GIGABYTE TRX50 AERO D (sTR5/ AMD/ TRX50/ E-ATX/ DDR5/ PCIe 5.0 M.2/ PCIe 5.0/ USB4 Type-C/Wi-Fi 7/ Marvell 10GbE/ Motherboard)

I paired this with a 7960X Threadripper and even though the CPU and board are both new, I've had no issues with drivers or support. I'm not a gamer, but for simulations and compiling this is insanely fast. I've got it loaded with 128 GB of EEC Kingston Fury Renegade Pro Expo DIMMs and several M.2 drives and I've had no issues under Windows or Linux.

After 24 years of almost entirely ASUS, and 2 DOA ASUS TRX50 Workstation 8/2024 SF Bay wasting 4 days of build sessions. I bought Gigabyte TRX50 Aero D. The debug LED right away started supplying useful information.First impressions, the Gigabyte manual was more useful with pictures of the Installation process. The Increased PCI-E latch height makes it much easier to remove GPU compared to ASUS (I have to use a special too to release the GPU on slot 1).I wasn't sure how to feel about those silver heat covers, but once I realized that they are removable without a screwdriver I think I like them much better compared to ASUS which requires various screwdrivers on all my other AMD builds.I think I'm liking the CPU fan connector placement and the placement of all connections at the bottom in a organized fashion.Also, I am much more impressed by the placement of the LED and power button and to see a actual modest sized button is a big improvement over ASUS. Not to mention attempting to press the small button I accidentally stabbed under my finger-nail due to trying to press the button in tight spaces.I can definitely see why some people are happy with this brand, we'll see how it goes -- hopefully clear sailing here on.

Llego en perfecto estado.....!!!!!

Took me a bit to figure out, but the new Gigabyte Aero D TRX50 motherboard has more than one issue. One R-DIMM slot was bad. Thought it was the RAM at first. Then the USB 3.0 port is also defective. Have to send back (sigh). Will try one more time. I have been building computers for some time and have never had this issue. Think twice about ordering Gigabyte Motherboards.My second board arrived DOA. Would not power up— multiple remedies attempted to no avail. I read one review of this board which stated it was a great motherboard if you could find one that works. Unfortunately I have been unsuccessful in that venture. I am done with Gigabyte. I am going to try an alternate manufacturer.

Works well just out of the box with the kingston fury I go with this kingston KF560R32RBEK4-128 because of price is like 300 less and work's well with this mother board and 7970x and a Noctua NH-U14S TR5-SP6you just need a case with good airflow like the fractal torrent
