Reason for Sale
Board is soft bricked
  • I'm a victim of the infamous platform key bug in gigabyte's stupid bios. I tried the usual CMOS battery reset, shorting the reset pins but to no avail.
  • This board will NOT POST without integrated graphics. I will sell this only if you have a compatible processor with integrated graphics.
  • You should be able to remove this restriction by booting with integrated graphics and resetting/reflashing the bios.
  • I will offer a 3 day testing warranty as I myself am not 100% sure that the board will boot up with integrated graphics (I'm basing myself off of what I'm seeing on the internet).
  • I don't have the invoice so I'm not sure of the exact date of purchase but the board is in great condition. No warranty though.
  • Comes with the original box and everything in it
<rant>I'm going to be staying away from gigabyte boards because of system breaking bugs like this in the bios that they haven't fixed for years</rant>

My personal experience:
I will also stay away from Gigabyte AM4 motherboards.
If I use a Nvidia GTX 1050 Graphics card, no issue.
If I use a Radeon RX 570 Graphics card, random time, infinite POST time or POST Loop!
