Gigabyte Expands Stealth Series Motherboard Lineup with AMD 800-Series Chipsets
Tech enthusiast @harukaze5719 recently spotted listings on the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) website revealing that Gigabyte has registered a range of new motherboards. Notably, these include several additions to their "Stealth" series, all built around the latest AMD 800-series chipsets.
The design is highly likely to continue with the white, back-mounted connector scheme that characterizes the Stealth series. Interestingly, this aesthetic approach isn't limited to the high-end AORUS line; Gigabyte is also extending it to their mid-range "A" series motherboards. This indicates a clear strategy from Gigabyte to broaden the availability of this visually appealing design, catering to the growing demand for high-performance PCs that also prioritize clean aesthetics.
The specific Gigabyte motherboard models listed on the EEC are as follows:
B550M DS3H AC R2
B850 A STEALTH ICE
