Unfortunately, at the time of writing we couldn’t find up to date pricing information. Of course, we expect stores to update their stock as the reviews go live and the NDA is over. You can find the latest pricing for the UK here and for the US here.
The AORUS X570 Master is a gorgeous looking motherboard, there’s no mistake to be made there. I think they’ve done a fantastic job of building a great looking motherboard, that also packs in a hell of a lot of practical features for any system builder. While I didn’t have the price at the time of writing, I know it’s a high-end solution, but expect it to be competitive. Wallets don’t start shaking in fear until you get into the flagship models like the XTREME. However, expect a premium for features like ESS SABRE HIFI and 2.5 GbE networking.
Armoured PCIe lanes and DIMM slots look fantastic, but also prevent PCB flex, and help withstand the weight of modern GPUs too. The VRM design is pretty robust, and no doubt more than enough for overclocking even on the flagship Ryzen 9 CPUs too. Of course, with a chunky heatsink on the motherboard, the active chipset fan, and three M.2 shields built-in, cooling is on point throughout.
The motherboard certainly isn’t slow, but it’s not really the fastest motherboard we’ve tested today either. There are a lot of super high-end X570 solutions on our charts today though, so even the AORUS X570 Master comes under heat from the rest of the Gigabyte and AORUS range. That being said, I suspect the performance has room to improve via a BIOS update. Plus, the AORUS X570 Master is hardly lacking when it comes to benchmarks and gaming performance. What it lacks it certainly makes up for in connectivity though, with does add to its appeal.
AORUS has crammed this motherboard with impressive connectivity you would often find much higher up the range. There’s GbE and 2.5 GbE LAN, as well as the ultra-fast WiFi 6 and BT5 options. Throw in a load of USB Gen 2 solutions, stunning ESS SABRE audio, and a fist full of ARGB control, and you’re good to go. Without a doubt, you’ll not be left wanting for more features here.
I really like this motherboards. I suspect it’ll be one of the more competitively priced AORUS boards too. It’s well equipped, really well made, and looks stunning too. If I’m right about the price, this will be one to watch out for.
