Newegg has the Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite AM4 ATX Motherboard [newegg.com] for $160 + Free Shipping - OOS

Additionally available:
With the Pro AC sold out already, I'd expect the less expensive Elite to go next. These don't last long, folks.
Edit: The Elite did indeed go next, and quickly.

I wish they show up on Amazon, fast shipping for prime and good returns.

Egg charges for shipping and takes too long to get here on normal shipping.. returns not so good

These have free shipping, just to clarify, but I believe you meant the point about shipping costs on returns. I agree, not a fan of Newegg's customer service and returns.

But as of this moment, Amazon and BHphotovideo are out of stock on these.

New egg shipping takes a week to get here and I do no know anyone who doesnt have prime.
if we want fast shipping from new egg, that is another big expense.

I agree its a great find as the mobo are in short supply and B550's are newest bunch...

And the Elite also went OOS. I won't make further updates to the availability now that the two cheapest options are off the board here.

A $280 B550 is a niche choice because people want value in B450 / B550 mobos and that's a luxury price tag when you can get quality X570's for less.

Why do the specs say PCIe 4.0 Ready? I thought the b550 boards weren't PCIe 4.0. Only x570

Is there a reason for making two different boards for the same socket? Its been 10 years since my last build and im looking to build a ryzen setup with a 3700x atx tower. Which is the better board to get? And im guessing the other is the more budget friendly which I appreciate as well. Any feedback is greatly appreciate it.

B550 does provide PCIe 4.0 from the cpu only, not the 550 chipset on the motherboard. Most B550 motherboards will provide PCIe 4.0 for the top PCI x16 slot and usually 1 M.2 drive. All the other PCI slots would then be 3.0 and other M.2 slots also 3.0.

Gigabyte build quality isn't good, customer service/warranty is trash. They still owe me $300 from 2006. So hard pass, I've built over 40 computers, I never recommend gigabyte. Better off getting the msi mag for 160

I honestly have faster shipping from Newegg. That hard drive deal came to my house overnight with standard eggsaver.
