Compared with an A520 board, you get PCIe 4.0 on the graphics slot and the main M.2 slot when using a Ryzen 5000 or 3000 CPU, four DIMM slots for up to 128GB and a second M.2 slot for extra storage. HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 are ready for a Ryzen G-series APU. B550 also allows CPU and memory overclocking, which A520 does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it keeps costs down\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a stripped-back B550 board. It has just one CPU fan header and one system fan header, so cases with several fans will need a hub or splitter, and there are no RGB headers. The second M.2 slot runs at PCIe 3.0 x2, which is fine for a games drive but slower than the primary slot. Networking is Gigabit Ethernet only. Note that Ryzen G-series APUs drop the x16 slot and main M.2 to PCIe 3.0. If you want Wi-Fi, more fan headers or RGB control, look at a higher B550 model; if you are starting fresh, AM5 with DDR5 is the longer-term platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports AMD Ryzen 5000, 5000 G, 4000 G, 3000 and 3000 G series processors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePCIe 4.0 graphics slot and M.2 with Ryzen 5000\/3000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual M.2 slots plus four SATA 6Gb\/s ports with RAID 0\/1\/10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour DDR4 slots with XMP support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQ-Flash BIOS update and APP Center utilities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: GIGABYTE B550M K (GA-B550M-K)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCPU Support: AMD Socket AM4; Ryzen 5000, 5000 G, 4000 G, 3000 and 3000 G series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChipset: AMD B550\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemory: 4 x DDR4 DIMM, dual channel, max 128GB (32GB per DIMM), 2133 to 4733 MHz (O.C.), XMP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnboard Graphics: 1 x DisplayPort 1.4 (5120x2880@60Hz), 1 x HDMI 2.1 (4096x2160@60Hz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio: Realtek codec, 2\/4\/5.1\/7.1-channel HD Audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLAN: Realtek Gigabit LAN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpansion Slots: 1 x PCIe x16 (PCIe 4.0 with Ryzen 5000\/3000, PCIe 3.0 with G-series), 1 x PCIe 3.0 x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorage: M2A_CPU M.2 2280 (SATA and PCIe 4.0 x4\/x2), M2B_SB M.2 2280 (PCIe 3.0 x2), 4 x SATA 6Gb\/s, RAID 0\/1\/10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear USB: 4 x USB 3.2 Gen 1, 4 x USB 2.0\/1.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal USB: 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 header, 1 x USB 2.0\/1.1 header\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFan Headers: 1 x CPU, 1 x system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOther Internal: 24-pin ATX, 8-pin ATX 12V, TPM header, front panel and front audio headers, Clear CMOS jumper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack Panel: PS\/2, DisplayPort, HDMI, 4 x USB 3.2 Gen 1, 4 x USB 2.0\/1.1, RJ-45, 3 x audio jacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBIOS: 128 Mbit flash, AMI UEFI BIOS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOS Support: Windows 11 \/ 10 64-bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm Factor: Micro-ATX, 24.4 x 24.4 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: Standard GIGABYTE manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWHAT'S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGIGABYTE B550M K motherboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBundled accessories as supplied by GIGABYTE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy GIGABYTE?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGIGABYTE has been building motherboards since the 1980s and keeps its AM4 boards updated for the full Ryzen 5000 range.
