Coming from an X570I it does lack a lot of features but you cant get that board again, so this was only sense-able buy imo for my AMD AM4 3600. The feature I missed the most is Overclocking/underclocking/undervolting. While you can adjust voltage and clocks, the board just isn't as stable as the x570i and I wasn't able to get my 3600 to 4.2ghz but that's not really the use case for this board so I cant fault it for that. This is one of the only 4 or so am4 ITX boards still around.Good board overall for the price!

Smooth build in an SFF htpc build, really appreciate a simple build experience. No issues.

Works good a couple settings I had to mess within the bios i.e. xdm on ram to enable the 3600mhz and having to rotate secure boot from on to custom and back on to get it to register secure boot. But running this with a ryzen 5 5500 corsair 3600mhz ram and it benchmarks above average with a few tweaks. Good value good board.

Excellent Mini-ITX motherboard, Here's my experience:I paired it with a Ryzen 5700G processor and 64GB of RAM, housed in the Akasa Maxwell Pro Plus, an aluminium fanless Mini-ITX case. The combination works flawlessly under Arch Linux, providing a silent and efficient system that handles multitasking, development workloads, and media playback with ease.The motherboard's layout is well-designed, with intuitive placement of headers and ports that simplify the build process in small cases like mine.Overall, the Gigabyte A520I AC is a fantastic choice for anyone building a compact and capable system. Highly recommended!

Purchased a like-new version of this board for a friend's entry-level gaming build. It's fine, totally acceptable overall though the single M.2 slot and slow wifi are inconvenient. Unfortunately the package arrived sans motherboard standoff screws so I had to scrounge up extras on my own. Otherwise great for the price.

欲しかったのはモニター接続端子が3つ以上あること。DVIやVGIじゃなく3つともHDMIかdispayportであるのがいい。それがたまたまmini itxの中で最安。一つだけ残念なのがネット速度が1Gbまで。　安いやつのなかではかっこいい。メモリも全てコスパよくそれえたけど全て黒に統一してかっこいい。説明書が入ってないからネットでダウンロードするとある。

The first motherboard I ordered look like it had been previously opened and upon further inspection I noticed there was a broken diode on the bottom of the board and noticed there was also missing components that were supposed to come with the motherboard. I didn’t even bother trying to power that one on and I returned it and this time received a brand new one with no issues. It’s been great and the Bios was easy to flash and all the drivers were easy to update. I did notice though however my Wi-Fi was intermittent until I updated that wireless driver and I haven’t had any problems since. It’s perfect for my mini iTX build and works great.

Set up an extra small PC using this. Cheap for ITX. Really tiny. Never felt anything is amiss. AM4 still rocks, especially with cheap processors and cheap RAM available.

It worked with a Ryzen 5600x right out of the box, no BIOS update needed. XMP profile for RAM was 1 click in BIOS setup. Plenty of fan headers and even a few RGB connections if you're in to that. The only cons are the included paperwork is just 1 sheet of paper that just shows an overview of the on board connections, but no labeling of the pin connections; specifically the front panel I/O, which has to be plugged in individually. You will have to search online for the specific model to find the actual 42 page user manual in PDF form to find the breakdown of all the specific pins functionality. No one includes driver media anymore, but you can either download drivers individually from Gigabyte's website, or download their "APP Center" application which will install driver updates for you, as well as some useful (and other not so useful) tools. Pay attention to the setup process with APP Center though, as it will try to, by default, install Norton Antivirus software. You can pick and choose which apps and drivers to install. The on board wifi/bluetooth supposedly supports up to about 450 mbps, but regardless of placement of the antenna, I was only able to get about 100 mbps upload and download speeds both before and after driver updates; my MacBook Pro sitting right next to the PC was able to get 545 mbps up/down. Your mileage may vary however. I haven't tested the on board wired LAN but it's an Intel 1gbps port so it should run at whatever your home internet is capable of. Overall solid board with no issues,

Ive learned my lesson the hard way about buying used motherboards. So this time i bought a brand new one, or so i thought, again the same problems as when i bought used. I get an item that has the original box, but the product has visible damage/wear and tear. Then, even more frustratingly i cannot even build my computer because the mobo did not have m.2 screws included. Or an io shield. Very poor experience buying an obviously opened product when it was not advertised as such.Edit: i didnt even realize at first but the m.2 slot is completely broken too and there was thermal paste in the socket and the pcb by the cpu power slot was cracked and damaged. So i bought a product that is advertised new but is in fact used, broken and unusable. Worse part is its not from a 3rd party seller. So i call amazon for recourse and they offer nothing except a refund with no return. Which is a useless solution because all it does is leave me to handle their useless tech trash and leave me waiting 3-5 business days for the refund to process so i can search for a replacement. For those of you that use Amazon just to save a few bucks supplying products for your business, just don't, this is useless crap you shouldn't have to deal with. Instead of tending to your customers needs. Really wish i could do 0 stars

Very durable

------- Actualización 21/10/2023: El fabricante ya ofrece la compatibilidad de este producto con Gráficos Integrados de Ryzens 3000 (R3 3200G y R5 3400G). Tal compatibilidad no se ofrecía antes, pero actualmente se puede apreciar en la web oficial de producto. -------Tarjeta Madre (TM) perfecta para personas no interesadas en overclocking de CPU/iGPU, sin embargo permite overclockear RAM. Su PCIe 3.0 la hace conveniente para gráficos integrados o solo dedicados que usan PCIe versión 3. TM destaca por el socket CPU ubicado no en el centro, sino desplazado unos mm al borde, que puede ser punto a favor para instalar disipador de CPU voluminoso.La TM Gigabyte A520I AC se probó con: --- CPU: Ryzen 5 5600G con gráficos integrados --- Disipador CPU: Noctua NH-L12 Ghost S1 (66mm de alto) --- Gabinete: Silverstone ML06B --- Memoria RAM: Crucial Ballistix BL2K8G36C16U4R (39,2mm de alto) --- Fuente de poder SFX: Silverstone ST30SF-V2 300W --- SSD SATA --- W10 LTSC 1809Referente al sistema de actualización de BIOS (sin CPU ni RAM) Q-Flash PLUS:Según mi experiencia Q-Flash PLUS funciona bien y es la salvación para los que no disponen de CPU de generación anterior. Hay que tener en cuenta que con Gráficos Integrados, BIOS de TM por defecto tiene habilitado solo 1x puerto de Video: conector HDMI_1 (de los bordes azules, debajo de 2x puertos USB 3.0). El segundo HDMI y Display Port por defecto están INACTIVOS y no van a dar imagen (esta información no está en ningún manual de producto). Ya conectado al monitor por HDMI_1, con imagen en pantalla y una vez dentro de BIOS, al forzar gráficos integrados se habilitan los 2 puertos de Video restantes. Cada vez que BIOS se pone a valores por defecto – queda activo únicamente el puerto HDMI_1. Al final de reseña pongo consejos para actualizar BIOS de este producto.Referente a posibilidad de limitar TDP de CPU desde BIOS:Ryzen 5 5600G (sin overclocking) tiende a subir temperaturas mucho y de golpe. La TM permite limitar TDP de CPU a 45W desde BIOS mediante perfiles configurados por el fabricante de TM (Settings->AMD CBS->NBIO Com. Options->SMU Com. Options->System Config. AM4). Al aplicar perfil de 45W, frecuencias de los núcleos de CPU se reducen solo 200MHz, pero las temperaturas bajan unos (!) 11°C. Sin embargo al limitar TDP a 45W, según soporte Gigabyte, es más aconsejable no usar perfiles XMP y overclocking de memoria RAM. Aparte de la posibilidad de limitar TDP, la TM permite hacer el típico underclocking/undervolting de CPU.Consumo energético de todo el Sistema (según Wattimetro en el enchufe de corriente):Sin limitar TDP de CPU y con RAM a 3600MHz (XMP), todo el Sistema en carga de CPU a 100% (stress test AIDA64) consume aprox. 100W en total. Limitando TDP de CPU a 45W y con RAM sin XMP, todo el Sistema en carga de CPU a 100% consume solo aprox. 75W en total.Conclusión: El producto ofrece buena calidad y funciona perfectamente con Ryzen 5 5600G siendo muy conveniente para sistemas Compactas.Consejos para actualizar BIOS de TM Gigabyte A520I AC con herramienta Q-Flash Plus (sin CPU ni RAM instalados):1. Según mi consulta con Soporte Gigabyte, la manera más segura y conveniente de actualizar BIOS de este producto – es usando Q-Flash Plus. Pero hay que entender que tal actualización de todas maneras es un riesgo, ya que si se interrumpe la luz – TM puede quedar inservible.2. Es imprescindible ver con antelación el manual-video genérico de Q-Flash Plus en la web oficial de TM.3. Durante el proceso hay que controlar en cada momento el suministro de corriente a TM. Cualquier conexión de cables/componentes a TM – realizar solo con corriente apagada desde Fuente de Poder. Y al contrario, cuando el proceso de actualización de BIOS se inicie – procurar que el suministro de corriente no se interrumpe y no se vaya la luz.4. Es mejor usar una memoria USB versión 2.0 más básica posible. Antes asegurándose que es totalmente funcional (que al conectarla a otro PC, siempre se reconoce sin problemas).5. Es necesario formatear la memoria USB en cuestión con “file system”: FAT32 y “allocation unit size”: BY DEFAULT, antes de grabarle el fichero de BIOS.6. Es importante modificar correctamente el nombre de fichero de BIOS (previamente descomprimido en otra PC y grabado en la memoria USB) – tal como lo indica el manual-video genérico de Q-Flash en web oficial.7. Es aconsejable que la memoria USB que se va a usar – tenga incorporado el indicador LED propio para mejor visualización del proceso. Así, en el momento de conectar la memoria al puerto USB blanco en TM (conectores 24-pin (TM) y 8-pin (CPU) de Fuente de Poder conectados y con corriente, pero sin CPU ni RAM instalados) – el indicador LED propio de memoria USB empezará a parpadear LENTAMENTE – que es una buena señal. Cuando posteriormente se pulse el botón Q-Flash Plus en TM, el indicador LED propio de memoria USB empezará a parpadear RAPIDAMENTE. En paralelo con esto parpadeará el indicador LED de Q-Flash incorporado en TM – significando que proceso de actualización ha empezado (tarda aprox. 3-4 minutos y mientras se ejecuta es vital NO apagar la corriente ni desconectar cables).8. Cuando la actualización de BIOS termine (se apagarán todas las LEDs), es aconsejable quitar la corriente de Fuente de Poder antes de instalar la RAM y CPU.
