Are Gigabyte Products Good?

I'm currently planning a new build but I'm not sure if Gigabyte products are good, especially with their PSUs. In my current build I'm planning to use their B760 AORUS ELITE AX LGA1700 board, is it a good product? I will not use their PSUs.

Depends on the PSU. I'd check out Hardware Unboxed to see if they've done reviews on the board.

You can't really paint any company's products with a single "good" or "bad" moniker.

There is no blanket answer for any brand except Raidmax. In the case of Raidmax, everything they make is dog shit. In the case of literally every other OEM, it's on you to read reviews and make up your own mind. In my opinion based on experience, Gigabyte mobos dating back 5-7 years have been solid. When I have had to get RMA support from them for literally anything, it's been a nightmare in slow-motion with a battle at every step of the way. Even knowing that their support is absolute garbage, I have Gigabyte mobos in most of the systems I own, and if all else is equal, I'll typically pick Gigabyte over other OEMs.

 

I have not had the same luck with their GPUs, and generally shy away from those. I haven't used their PSUs, but if it's a PSU review you're looking for, Johnny Guru is the site to check.

I can't say anything for the mobo's but I have a Gigabyte Radeon RX6750XT video card with 12Gb of VRAM and it has worked great ever since I installed it.  Going on a year old now and it still works great.
