GIGABYTE X870I AORUS PRO ICE — AMD X870, Socket AM5, Mini-ITX
Overview
Elevate your compact build with the GIGABYTE X870I AORUS PRO ICE — a premium Mini-ITX motherboard built on the AMD X870 chipset for Socket AM5. Designed for AMD Ryzen 7000, 8000, and 9000 Series processors, it delivers flagship-class performance in a 170mm × 170mm footprint. With DDR5 support up to 8400MHz (OC), PCIe 5.0 M.2 storage, WiFi 7, USB4, and a striking white ICE aesthetic, this board is engineered for builders who refuse to compromise.
AMD Socket AM5 — Ryzen 7000 / 8000 / 9000 Support
Compatible with the full AMD Ryzen 7000, 8000, and 9000 Series processor lineup on Socket AM5, ensuring long-term platform longevity and access to AMD’s latest CPU architectures.
Digital Twin 8+2+1 Phase VRM
A robust 8+2+1 phase digital twin VRM solution delivers clean, stable power to the CPU — essential for sustained performance and overclocking headroom on high-core-count Ryzen processors. VRM Thermal Armor Advanced keeps temperatures in check.
DDR5 Memory — Up to 8400MHz (OC)
Two DIMM slots support DDR5-SDRAM in dual-channel configuration, with AMD EXPO memory module support. Maximum capacity is 128GB (64GB per slot), with clock speeds from 4400MHz up to 8400MHz (OC). Non-ECC, unbuffered.
Ultra-Fast Storage — PCIe 5.0 & PCIe 4.0 M.2
Two M.2 (M-key, 2280) slots: the primary slot runs at PCIe 5.0 x4 for next-generation NVMe speeds, and the secondary at PCIe 4.0 x4. Both feature M.2 Thermal Guard Ext. heatsinks. Two SATA III ports provide additional storage connectivity. RAID 0 and RAID 1 supported.
PCIe 5.0 x16 Slot with EZ-Latch Plus
A single PCIe 5.0 x16 slot (PCIe UD Slot) with EZ-Latch Plus for tool-free GPU installation and removal. Supports the latest generation graphics cards at full bandwidth.
Extended Connectivity — USB4 & USB 3.2
Rear panel includes 1x USB4 Gen 2x2 Type-C (40Gbps, with DisplayPort Alt Mode), 2x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A (10Gbps), 2x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A (5Gbps), and 2x USB 2.0. Internal headers add further USB 2.0, USB 3.2 Gen 1, and USB 3.2 Gen 2 expansion.
Fast Networking — WiFi 7 & 2.5GbE LAN
WiFi 7 (802.11be) via Realtek RTL8922AE — backward compatible with WiFi 6E/6/5/4/a/b/g/n. Directional ultra-high-gain antenna included. Bluetooth 5.4 also integrated. Wired: 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet via Realtek RTL8125 with a single RJ-45 port.
Audio — Realtek ALC4080 7.1 Channel
High-definition 7.1-channel audio powered by the Realtek ALC4080 codec. Rear panel includes headphone output and line-in jack. Front panel audio header included internally.
Display Output
1x HDMI 2.1 port (max resolution 4096×2160, HDCP supported, DirectX 12.0). Note: requires a Ryzen processor with integrated graphics (Ryzen 8000G series or similar) to use the HDMI output. The USB4 Type-C port also supports DisplayPort Alt Mode.
PC Health Monitoring
Monitors fan speed, temperature, voltage, and water cooling parameters. Supports Smart Fan speed control. BIOS: UEFI AMI, 256Mbit, ACPI 5.0, Clear CMOS jumper, DMI 2.7, SMBIOS 2.7. Windows 11 x64 supported.
