Gigabyte Aorus K9 Optical Gaming Keyboard

This replaces my Ryzen 7 1800X in a Gigabyte Aorus X470 Gaming with an RTX 2070 Super. Huge improvement in general responsiveness (my 1800X frequently lagged briefly here and there), and big increases in performance using Cinebench R23 (1800X: Single Core 1018 Multi 9309 5800X: Single 1694 Multi 15299) and with games (most either gained +20fps, much higher qualty settings, or both). I haven't tweaked it, just running it under the same water-cooling rig I used for the 1800X. Great upgrade!

Just purchased a Gigabyte Aorus gaming laptop and easily installed this SSD inside. Read/Write speeds are great, the value of this SSD is why I purchased and will purchase again if necessary!

I ended up keeping this motherboard over the Gigabyte Aorus Elite AX. The install and bios update was smooth. My Corsair Vengeance RAM worked perfectly with the mobo. Definitely highly recommend for folks switching to the AM5 chipset.

Installed in a Gigabyte Aorus Pro AC mobo and enabled the XMP profile BIOS and it booted right up. Verified memory clock is stable and running at 1800 MHz.

I bought this to pair with an AMD 5800x and it worked flawlessly. Plugged it into a Gigabyte Aorus motherboard and set up the profile in BIOS and it just worked without any other fiddling.

Hardware RAID'ed three of these for a total of 12TB on my Gigabyte Aorus Master MB - together, they are faster in a stripe than the fastest NVME 5 drives (11+ GB/sec for the three NVME raid vs. 10 GB/sec for MSI's latest). Amazing. Love it.

Bought this to replace a Gigabyte Aorus B450 (purchased 2019) that died over the course of several months. I wish it were compatible with the older RAM modules I had, and the LEDs on the board stay on even after powering down, but aside from those, it's performed great so far. The BIOS interface is nice, though it boots so fast it can be hard to catch the screen at all. But it's the right price, and ASUS boards have been quite reliable for me over the years.

One of the only AM5 B650M boards that has both optical and line outs. Has plenty of other I/O as well. Shipped version was 1.2, not the latest 1.3. BIOS as shipped was FB. Installed easily into Thermaltake Tower T200 case. My first gigabyte board in years, been ASUS for past 10y. The gigabyte BIOS was easy to navigate and understand. Updated to latest BIOS, changed to EXPO settings on my RAM, everything just works.

I upgraded to this cpu along with a gigabyte auros b450M. Simple yet powerful. Though not an exceptional cpu for gaming you can run most desktop software with ease. No graphics card needed.

Love this gaming keyboard. Color changing looks great.
