Unboxing & Overview: Gigabyte H610M H DDR4 - Entry-level Intel 14th Gen Motherboard?

[@ALKtech]

UPDATE AS OF 2024: This motherboard now supports Intel's 14th Gen "Raptor Lake Refresh" processors with a BIOS update available for download from Gigabyte's website! Check out the article version of this overview here: www.alktech.co/articles/gigabyte-h610m-h-ddr4-unboxing-overview

@@Luca-pn2gu yes a RTX 4060 will work with this board, but I'd be more concerned about your processor choice, as this is an entry-level board that wouldn't be able to handle high-end processors (e.g. the Core i7/i9).

This motherboard is excellent, I'm very satisfied with it, I don't see why putting anything else for a mid-range configuration, my Core I5 12400F works perfectly.

[@ALKtech]

I do think a 12400F is a great processor to pair with this board! But if you're gonna go higher than mid-range (e.g. 13600K, 13700K), this board would probably prevent such processors from achieving their maximum potential due to VRM limitations...

I don't have this board with me anymore unfortunately so I can't take a closer look at the VRM setup, though given that the 12400F isn't thaaat power hungry of a processor, it should work just fine with this board for video editing workloads! But that said, if you have the budget for it, I'd still recommend getting something better, like a B760 motherboard for a peace-of-mind!

[@EdgarIX]

Excellent video, Friend, I would like to buy it and also a Presador i5 13th, but my question is, can I update the BIOS (Flash) with that processor, or is it very mandatory to have a 12th CPU to update the Bios?

[@ALKtech]

Hey there, it really depends on how old is the stock of the motherboard that you're purchasing from your local retailer. If it's a board that was manufactured recently, it would likely have the latest BIOS preloaded are you won't need to update the BIOS to have 13th Gen support. It'd be a good idea to check in with the retailer that you're intending to purchase the board from to see if they can help verify how old is their stock!

Not that the H610M doesn't support 13th Gen - it does, just that this board is pretty much as barebones as it can get. Will you be doing some basic productivity work and light gaming with your PC?

Hello, a 12100F+6600 XT combo will work great with this board! Is your intention to build a gaming PC on a budget?

[@johntalawson6295]

@@ALKtech yes around a 700-1000 build

@@johntalawson6295 gotcha. The 12100F+6600 XT+H610 combo should do pretty okay for 1080P gaming on today's titles with decent graphics settings, without ray tracing enabled!

@@ALKtechsorry for the late reply i actually went with this build instead -Thermaltake Versa H17 -GIGABYTE H610M S2H -Intel Core i5-12400 -Thermaltake Smart RGB 700W -T-Force Vulcan Z DDR4 16GB 3200MHz -TEAMGROUP MP33 PRO 512GB -MSI Radeon RX 6600 XT MECH do you feel like this is a good build?

[@ALKtech]

@@johntalawson6295 good choice to go with an i5 instead. Looks like a pretty decent build, though is 512GB enough for your SSD? Do you have an external hard disk to store your files?

Does this motherboard support turbo boost?

[@ALKtech]

Yes it does!

[@ghostraptor3980]

Thank you very much ☺️

[@papabernztv]

hello can anyone let me know if ddr4 4600mhz will work on this motherboard?

[@ALKtech]

I haven't tried this myself, but I doubt so, seeing as Gigabyte states that the maximum speed supported is 3200 MT/s on the specs page...

Hello I want to buy Gigabyte H610M H DDR4,if i build,CPU-Core i5-12400F GPU-RTX 3060 RAM ddr4 16 GB is good for gaming?

[@ALKtech]

Yup this combination will be good for 1080p gaming at decent quality settings - don't expect to do any ray tracing at all though!

[@endrilaci2859]

@@ALKtech don't expect to do any ray tracing at all though?

[@ALKtech]

@@endrilaci2859 The RTX 3060 is a low-to-mid-range card - if you enable ray tracing in games that support ray tracing, you'll likely see a significant FPS drop versus with ray tracing disabled.

What is GOOD and BAD with this motherboard actually ??

[@18combo]

Only downside is there’s only 2 ddr4 RAM slots instead of 4 and im pretty sure you have to update bios if u want to use 13th gen intel processors

[@ami443]

@@18combo yes, I guess it's enough if you use 2x8gb or 2x16gb... And almost all motherboards need an upgrade to accept the new cpus... So it seems to be a good motherboard ?

[@18combo]

@@ami443 if you’re on a budget, i say go for it

[@narendra672]

Price please 😀

[@ALKtech]

This board costs around $159 Singapore dollars - roughly $112 US dollars after currency conversion. There will likely be price differences depending on which country you're from!

There is WiFi

[@ALKtech]

Nope, this board does not come with built-in WIFI!

[@superboid6138]

Does it support Bluetooth?

[@ALKtech]

It doesn't come with an onboard Bluetooth module, you'll have to purchase perhaps a USB Bluetooth dongle for this purpose!
