GIGABYTE B850M D3HP AM5 Micro-ATX Motherboard

Description

Overview

The GIGABYTE B850M D3HP is a compact Micro‑ATX motherboard built around AMD’s B850 chipset and the AM5 socket. It supports modern Ryzen processors across the 7000, 8000 and 9000 series (check Gigabyte’s CPU support list for exact compatibility) and is designed to combine contemporary connectivity with a small 24.4 × 24.4 cm footprint.

Key features

• AM5 socket; supports AMD Ryzen 7000 / 8000 / 9000 series processors (verify CPU support and BIOS version before installation).
• 4 × DDR5 DIMM slots — up to 256 GB total; support for AMD EXPO and Intel XMP profiles and a wide range of DDR5 frequencies (including high‑speed OC profiles).
• CPU-integrated PCIe x16 slot with PCIe 5.0 x16 mode available on supported Ryzen 9000 processors; additional chipset PCIe x16 (runs at x4) for expansion.
• Dual M.2 Socket 3 connectors (M2A_CPU, M2B_CPU) and 4 × SATA 6 Gb/s ports; NVMe RAID options depend on CPU generation.
• Rear I/O includes HDMI 2.1, 2 × DisplayPort, USB Type‑C (USB 3.2 Gen1), multiple USB 3.2 Gen1 and USB 2.0 ports, Realtek GbE LAN and 3 audio jacks.
• Headers for addressable RGB Gen2, RGB, front USB Type‑C and multiple fan/water pump connectors; Q-Flash and Q-Flash Plus supported.
• Micro‑ATX form factor (24.4 cm × 24.4 cm) suitable for compact cases.

Who this suits

This board is suitable for builders wanting a smaller AM5 system with modern features — DDR5 memory support, M.2 NVMe slots and HDMI 2.1 video output — without the cost or size of larger ATX motherboards. Verify the required BIOS version for newer Ryzen CPUs and confirm power/VRM requirements if planning to use high‑core‑count processors.
