The company just dropped another connector-less motherboard, but with the micro-ATX form-factor for compact builds.
GIGABYTE Releases B850M AORUS Stealth Motherboard, Featuring 12 Power Phase VRM, 4x DIMMs, Dual PCIe x16 Slots, While Keeping the Rest of the Connectors at the Back
Popular hardware maker GIGABYTE is silently expanding its Stealth lineup with more motherboard models. GIGABYTE's Project Stealth was introduced back in 2022, and since then, it has added several motherboard models in the series, including 600 and 800 series motherboards with different chipsets.
The company has now introduced a new Stealth motherboard called B850M AORUS Stealth, which introduces the same connector-less concept for those who want a neat and clean PC build. The B850M AORUS Stealth transfers the majority of the connectors and ports at the back of the PCB while keeping the primary slots on the front. These include the DIMMs and PCIe x16 slots, but for wiring and stuff, the majority of the connectors remain at the back.
These include the 24-pin ATX connector, an 8-pin EPS connector, SATA ports, a front USB Type-C port, RGB and ARGB headers, and many fan headers. The front side boasts a sleek design, offering heatsinks on almost all of the PCB, including a brushed aluminum heatsink at the bottom, covering the M.2 slots and chipset for better heat dissipation.
The board boasts an 8+2+2-phase VRM design coupled with a thermal armor advanced heatsink and a 5 W/mK thermal pad. The board also utilizes M.2 EZ-Flex design for easier and tool-less SSD installation, and is DIY friendly, bringing features such as the Rear EZ button, comprising many troubleshooting features, and a WiFi EZ-Plug for the adapter.
GIGABYTE hasn't disclosed any details on its pricing or availability yet.
