The TRX40 Aorus Master is also one of the only TRX40 Threadripper motherboards to come with a full coverage backplate. To be honest I love this feature but found that it needed to be removed to fit into my test bench. That wasn’t a helpful feature for me but, won’t pose any issue for those looking to build a real system around this platform.

By Kitguru.net onWith a similar price to other sub-£500 TRX40 boards, including the Asus ROG Strix TRX40-E Gaming, the Gigabyte TRX40 Aorus Master needed to stand out to warrant our top award, but while it offers numerous unique features, it doesn't really have us running for our wallets. However, those unique features, such as the best fan and cooling control around, good VRM cooling and more typical features such as overclocking and testing tools, mean that it's easily a match for similarly-priced boards out there and comes recommended, especially if you'll be building a high-end water-cooled PC.
By Bit-Tech onThe TRX40 Aorus Master’s shorter voltage regulator means it will fit more case and cooler combos. But its added depth means it will fit fewer ATX (but all EATX) cases. If this board plays well with the rest of our components and you like lots of expansion slots and M.2, it's well worth considering.

En definitiva, estamos delante de unas de las mejores placas bases del mercado y que estará dentro de este listado próximamente. Su precio oscilará los 615 euros, creemos que vale cada euro que gastemos en ella, y que no tiene nada que envidiar a modelos superiores.
