It is ~$100 more expensive than a B450 itx board, but still at least 13% cheaper (or on average ~20%) than getting the same board here in Australia. So I suppose it's good for those who really want the B550 board over the B450 for their new ITX build.

In stock on August 20, 2020.
In stock on August 29, 2020.
In stock on September 14, 2020. In stock.

So it'll only get dispatched in a few days, just a slight longer wait. Postage service from UK seems to take 1-2 weeks to arrive from comments of previous Amazon UK deals.

EDIT 18/08: updated new in stock date.
EDIT 07/09: Back to able to place order, and updated to latest pricing (which may fluctuates with currency exchange rate).
EDIT 15/09: Updated to the slightly further lowered price of $280.40. Also in stock for order.

    Damn nice, I bought the B450i equivalent a couple months ago at about $230 when I built my system
    Was willing to buy this B550i board at the time even at the mid 300s price point if I could buy one, my front panel type C is nothing but show at the moment oh well~

  • Fire Chicken on 17/08/2020 - 22:56

    FINALLY - INSTANT BUY

    • Telios on 18/08/2020 - 10:22

      It's fine if you are slowly building, but says won't get here before September 4th.

      And then you need to add on additional wait times for clearance.

      All my auspost parcels have been delayed 3-5 business days at the moment.

      • Fire Chicken on 18/08/2020 - 10:33

        I'm fine with it because I'm waiting till November for Big Navi anyway, and you can update the BIOS without a current gen cpu

    Too bad Gigabyte refuses to include a Type-C header, both B450I/550I didn't have it.

    • LordNoon6 on 18/08/2020 - 15:27

      So this board doesn't support a Front USB type C?

      • dotJaz on 18/08/2020 - 16:02

        Nope, only USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type A, which is just renamed original USB 3.0.

    I ordered the Aorus B550I from a local store for not too much from this deal but waited for weeks without any signs of being in stock. My ITX case that I ordered from the US arrived first and the Aorus still nowhere to be seen.

    • Digitalsin on 17/08/2020 - 23:53

      which case did you get…if you don't mind me asking?

      • Davesday on 01/09/2020 - 23:47

        I ordered the Sliger SM580. Very happy with the case (very quiet) but wasn't too glad that I had to make do with a slightly inferior AIO. My original Corsair H115i RGB could not fit. Here's my build notes for those interested. Hopefully it will guide anyone who is heading down the same path.

        On the side note, my Drop Alt High Profile keyboard arrived and I'm now heading to my next COVID project. Just waiting for the Holy Panda switches to arrive.

    • Telios on 18/08/2020 - 10:24

      I've had the opposite problem, my mobo is set to arrive shortly, my case is now end of August apparently.

      I believe we should merge our beings and become the one true mITX

      • Davesday on 01/09/2020 - 23:48

        Did you end up getting the case now? Hope you are liking your new setup?

  • smartyhaha on 18/08/2020 - 13:53

    so pricy for a B550 board compare to ASRock B550M-ITX/AC $217.43 deal
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/558354

    an Intel AX wifi card cost around AUD30,

      This Gigabyte board does feature other improvements or upgrade of components compared to the ASRock board, which account for the higher price.

      It's for a different market segment and needs. The ASRock board is perfectly good for a budget option with CPU choices not going above 8 cores and non-overclock.

    • Davesday on 01/09/2020 - 23:52

      This B550 board got Buildzoid's approval. One of the best VRMs. Its for a different class of users who want ITX but not wanting to compromise on power delivery (for overclocking), system stability and longevity.

    Got one. Thinking of getting the Kingston A2000 1TB as a secondary m.2 for games and storage, but it's not on the "qualified vendors list"? The Samsung 970 Evo plus is there though (main OS).

    Also can't seem to find my RAM (CMW32GX4M2Z3600C18) of choice in the list.

    Would it be safe to purchase them anyway?
