Biostar has unveiled its newest mini-ITX motherboard for the AMD B550 chipset, the B550T-Silver, which is designed to be used with AMD’s Ryzen 5000 and Ryzen 3000 processors. The small-sized board combines a easy silver and black aesthetic with first rate options together with PCIe 4.Zero assist, Wi-Fi 6, 2.5 GbE networking, and one PCIe 4.Zero x4 M.2 slot.
With each NVIDIA and AMD transferring shortly away from multi-graphics card setups to single card powerhouses, the mini-ITX type issue has turn into as potent as because it’s ever been for gaming techniques. Biostar’s newest board, in flip, ticks quite a lot of packing containers for customers in search of a fairly priced mini-ITX motherboard that may harness the facility of AMD’s Zen Three processors to create a potent and pocket-sized gaming system/media heart with the AMD’s cheaper Ryzen chips.
From what we have seen, no X570 or B550 boards at the moment listing assist for the most recent Ryzen 5000G APUs, which we anticipate to vary as soon as AMD rolls them out onto the broader market.
The Biostar B550T-Silver combines a primary and chic black and silver shade scheme, with loads of options to be benefited from. There’s one full-length PCIe 4.Zero x16 slot, with a single PCIe 4.Zero x4 M.2 slot and 4 straight-angled SATA ports, together with assist for RAID 0, 1, and 10 arrays. On the right-hand facet of the board are two reminiscence slots, which may assist 64 GB of RAM at speeds as much as DDR4-4933. Biostar is not brazenly promoting the facility supply system, however we will see it makes use of one 8-pin 12 V ATX enter to supply energy to the CPU.
Biostar contains one USB 3.2 G2 Type-C, one USB 3.2 G2 Type-A, and 4 USB 3.2 G1 Type-A ports on the rear panel. There’s an unspecified Wi-Fi 6 interface for wi-fi networking, and a Realtek RTL8125B 2.5 GbE controller. The board’s built-in audio consists of three 3.5 mm audio jacks powered by a Realtek ALC897 HD audio codec. Users trying to construct a mini-ITX media system can profit from the built-in graphics on the Ryzen 4000 APUs by one HDMI 2.1 and a single DisplayPort video output pairing. Finishing off the rear panel is a PS/2 combo keyboard and mouse port.
At the time of writing, we do not at the moment have a value for the Biostar B550T-Silver mini-ITX motherboard or when it’s anticipated to hit retail. However, we do anticipate it to be fairly priced in contrast on to among the different mini-ITX B550 fashions.
