Our take on the GIGABYTE A520M S2H Motherboard

The GIGABYTE A520M S2H is a budget Micro-ATX board for AMD's AM4 socket. It runs Ryzen 3000 and 5000 chips, including the G-series with integrated graphics, and gives you one PCIe 3.0 x4 M.2 slot, four SATA ports and HDMI, DVI-D and D-sub outputs for multi-monitor setups. It is a cut-down A520 chipset board, so there is no CPU overclocking and no PCIe 4.0, which separates it from B550 rivals. It suits low-cost builds, office PCs and HTPCs where a single GPU and a couple of drives are enough.

Questions and answers

Does it support Ryzen 5000 out of the box?
Many units ship with older BIOS versions. Check the revision and use Q-Flash Plus to update before installing a Ryzen 5000 chip if needed.
Can I overclock the CPU on this board?
No. The A520 chipset does not support CPU overclocking. Memory runs at JEDEC and XMP-rated speeds within the board's limits.
How many monitors can I run?
Up to three with a Ryzen G processor that has integrated graphics, using HDMI, DVI-D and D-sub together.
Does it have Wi-Fi?
No. Networking is through the Realtek Gigabit LAN port only, so add a Wi-Fi card or USB adapter if you need wireless.
What M.2 drives fit?
One M.2 M-key slot takes 2260 and 2280 NVMe drives at PCIe 3.0 x4. SATA M.2 drives are not supported in that slot.
Is it good for a budget gaming build?
Yes for a single GPU and one or two drives. If you plan to overclock or want PCIe 4.0, a B550 board is the better fit.
