Question Gigabyte B650 Aorus Elite versus B650 Gaming X AX ?

[Phil_33]

Personal: Sorry for asking this again, I've did some research but still end up with these questions
This is going to be used for a 7600 non X with 5600mhz ddr5 ram.
I'm not going to overclock.

Gigabyte B650 Aorus Elite versus B650 Gaming X AX - - - who wins?
What are the vrm temperatures while gaming?
Do the temps matter?
Gaming X AX is cheaper but does seem to run hotter, so does this matter?
Aorus Elite has better temps and has gen 5 support for SSD, so it's a bit better but I don't know, it costs 45 euro's more...

Maybe someone has like test results or something of these boards while gaming?
This way we can all see the temps and power usage...

650 gaming X AX has wifi and bluetooth
gen5 for SSD is not gaming relevant
the motherboard is really not that important for gaming while using a this CPU

I believe aorus has wifi as well and maybe bluethooth too but the gen 5 is indeed not nessecairy.
What I am curious about is if the vrm coolings of the aorus is better and would actually be better for the lifespan and therefor live longer then the gaming x ax?

 

[helpstar]

if it´s the aorus x ax, then it does have wifi and bluetooth, the aorus model without "x ax" hasn´t

lifespan of components nowaday is about 5years max. Having more or better VRMs won´t necessarily get you a better chance of a working system a longer time
if you don´t overclock (raise voltages), the lifespan should be equal.
especially for a CPU with a tdp of only 65Watt

So at this point I could go with the gaming x ax?
Its cheaper.
I also read something about specific cheap gigabyte bords having coil whine, does this one have?
Anyway if gaming x ax is all I need then that's the answer, thanks then.

Btw, 5 years of lifespan could bve, but my z170 lived for ages now and is 8 years old.
I'm planning on keeping this board for 10 years maybe.
