GIGABYTE H610M S2H V2 DDR4 (H610/ Intel/LGA 1700/ Micro ATX/ DDR4/ Single M.2/ PCIe 4.0/ USB 3.2 Gen1/ Realtek GbE LAN/Motherboard)

This is a good motherboard. I got it very cheap and it works great. It uses an LGA 1700 socket for more modern CPUs and is great for a beginner. You don't need to screw in your NVMe SSD because it uses a toolless mechanism, so you don't have to worry about losing the screw. It has good I/O. There is no USB-C because its a budget board, but it comes with just about everything else you need. It has 1 big PCIe slot and a small one so you can connect a GPU and/or a Wi-Fi card to it. It has a variety of things you can mess around with in the BIOS including XMP, so you can make your RAM run at its fastest speed, but there are some downsides to this budget motherboard. It only has 2 RAM slots which limits how much you can add at a time. It has 1 NVMe slot so you won't be able to have multiple high speed SSDs and you storage will be limited. It also doesn't look that good. I am a fan of it, but if you want a good looking PC than you should look somewhere else. It doesn't have a place to add Wi-Fi to it so if you wanted to have Wi-Fi you would need a PCIe Wi-Fi card. One of the biggest problems I have with this motherboard are the fan and RGB connectors. There is 1 RGB header and 2 fan headers (not including the CPU fan header) This can be a problem if your case gets really hot and you need proper cooling, but it can be easily solved by buying an RBG hub or a fan splitter, but if your on a budget than that might not be an option. One other thing that might be an issue for some people is the I/O. I don't have a problem with it whatsoever, but if you use a lot of peripherals than you might need a USB hub.

I am building a NAS/Server with this MB and i3 14100 CPU. Since I am not putting a lot of stuff on the MB, it is perfect for the purpose. Installation is straight forward.For the cost, it is a good deal. However, it does not come with any mounting hardware, no screws or anything. It is annoying, but not a deal breaker.Since I am using it in a headless configuration, ports are irrelevant to me. Boot up speed is also irrelevant as the machine will be running 24/7.

This is probably my 6th mobo from Gigabyte over a 20 year building history. Some for gaming and some for a server. I bought this for a server. Zero issues. Just works. Well built.

Functionality:I thought it would work good instead it wouldn't boot and I tried three of them.

Only thing it is lacking is an ARGB header

Pretty nice motherboard. First time building a pc, so it was daunting. However, one of the only 2 RAM slots is busted. Anytime I plug one of my also brand new 16GB RAM sticks into it, it doesn't boot and power cycles. Tested both ram sticks alone on the other slot and both work great, tested both on the suspected busted slot and got the same issue with both sticks. Guess I'll just buy a 32GB ram stick and use the 1 slot. Sucks, though. Too much of a hassle to dismantle the whole new build to replace the motherboard for a busted RAM slot.

I had all sorts of drama with a board from another vendor, and swapped boards for this and it worked great. It's been reliable and installed Windows 11 with zero drama. Great board with good features for a simple i7 gaming build with a simple build with 64GB RAM and a 1TB NVMe drive!
