GIGABYTE has launched the first Mini-ITX motherboard that features the entry-level AMD A620 chipset. The UD-A620I-X offers a comprehensive I/O feature-set and draws power from a 24-pin ATX and a single 8-pin EPS. It uses a 9-phase VRM to power the SoC and is restricted to 65 W TDP processors, including 7600, 7700, 7900, and possibly Ryzen PRO desktop processors that are 65 W.
The processor is connected to two DDR5 DIMM slots and a PCI-Express 4.0 x16, which is sufficient for this generation of graphics cards. However, the A620 platform doesn't support PCIe Gen 5 on even the CPU-attached M.2 NVMe slots, and the one on this board is Gen 4. Display connectivity on the UD-A620I includes an HDMI and DisplayPort. Networking interfaces include Wi-Fi 6 wireless and 2.5 GbE wired. Storage connectivity, besides the Gen 4 NVMe slot, includes two SATA 6 Gbps ports.
You get at least two USB 3.2 ports from the processor, four USB 3.2 type-A ports on the rear I/O, an internal type-A port (for security keys), and an internal USB 3.2 header. The company hasn't disclosed the pricing yet.
