Gigabyte B650M DS3H upgrades

Released 2022 · on sale

Micro-ATX board with fully socketed CPU and memory (nothing soldered). Revision matters: rev. 1.0/1.1/1.2 and rev. 1.3 have separate spec pages and BIOS files — check the 'REV: X.X' marking on the board before buying parts or BIOS files. Manual 1304 is shared with the B650M GAMING X AX; ignore GAMING X AX-only sections.

2 × M.2 (M key, PCIe/NVMe only) 2 × SSD M.2 2280 / M.2 22110 / M.2 2280 (NVMe)

M.2 SATA SSDs are explicitly unsupported — NVMe/PCIe only. Supported sizes: 2280/22110 and 2580/25110 (22/25 mm wide); 2230/2242/2260 not listed. Both slots are CPU-attached PCIe 4.0 x4. 4 × SATA 6 Gb/s ports also present (bays/cables depend on your case); RAID 0/1/10, but NVMe and SATA can't mix in one array. With Ryzen 8000 Phoenix 2 APUs M2B drops to PCIe 4.0 x2.

AMD AM5 (LGA1718) socket AM5 · Ryzen 7000, Ryzen 8000G, Ryzen 9000

Ryzen 7000, 8000 (Phoenix APUs) and 9000 series; per-SKU support and BIOS/AGESA version vary — update BIOS first, older stock may need a Ryzen 7000 CPU to flash. No official TDP limit is stated; the entry-level 6+2+1-phase VRM makes 65 W parts the comfortable zone, so check Gigabyte's CPU support list before pairing a 170 W Ryzen 9.
