The Gigabyte B850 Aorus Elite Wi-Fi7 Ice is feature packed motherboard with a white finish, making it suitable if you prefer an all-white build. It supports DDR5 memory with overclocking support of up to 8200 MT/s. It also supports various DIY-friendly features such as a tool-less heatsink cover for the M.2 drives, a quick-release button for the GPU, and a simple solution to plug the Wi-Fi antenna. It also comes with the X3D Turbo Mode, a BIOS-level feature that offers optimization for Ryzen 9000 X3D and non-X3D processors to gain a slight boost in gaming performance.

If you're putting together an AM5 gaming PC, this Newegg combo is well worth considering. It bundles AMD's Ryzen 5 9600x, a Gigabyte B850 motherboard, and a 1TB Samsung 990 Pro SSD, saving you nearly $250 compared to buying the components separately.
The Ryzen 5 9600X is a value-for-money Zen 5 processor based on AMD’s AM5 platform. It features 6 cores and 12 threads with a boost clock speed of 5.4 GHz. It also comes with a low TDP of 65W, which makes it power efficient, allowing it to run relatively cooler. It offers excellent performance for the asking price and holds a solid place in our 13-game FPS performance geomean.

It delivers maximum sequential read speeds of 7,450 MB/s and sequential write speeds of 6,900 MB/s. It uses a 176-layer V-NAND TLC flash chip and comes with a rated endurance of 600 TBW. In our testing, the Samsung 990 Pro proved to be one of the fastest PCIe 4.0 SSDs, offering excellent performance and solid efficiency with consistently low operating temperatures.
If you're planning an AM5 build, this is one of the better bundle deals we've seen in a while. For $429.99 , you're getting a capable Zen 5 processor, a feature-rich B850 motherboard, and one of the fastest PCIe Gen 4 SSDs on the market, all while saving nearly $250.
