Before you believe a bad review about us

We would like to respond openly to every negative review about us. Many are posted anonymously, so we cannot reach those customers directly. This open letter is our reply, and we would be grateful if you took a moment to read it.

But here is what a one-star review will never tell you:

  • We import from 70+ official distributors. That is why you pay far less than local retail — and why delivery takes longer. We publish the date before you pay, never after.
  • You can pay only when your goods land in Johannesburg. Pay on Arrival, no full payment up front. Ask yourself what scammer offers that.
  • Nobody has ever lost money with us. You get the product, or you get a refund. There is no third option, and there never has been.
  • We are part of the ITwork group — ten years trading in Europe, nine stores, thousands of positive reviews.
  • Johannesburg and Cape Town stores open this year — real shelves, real stock, walk in and buy the same day.

We are not satisfied with our review scores, and we are not going to fix them by hiding anything. We are fixing them by being faster, clearer and easier to reach than any reason to complain.

Read the full letter — photos and video of real shipments, and a straight answer to every accusation.

Problem with an order right now? Write to [email protected], [email protected] or [email protected] — answered the same business day. The letter also lists our group and store owners' contacts.

The GIGABYTE X870 AORUS STEALTH ICE is an ATX motherboard for Socket AM5 systems, designed for AMD Ryzen 7000 / 8000 / 9000 series processors. It uses the AMD X870 chipset and supports DDR5 memory with overclocking up to 8200 MT/s, up to 256 GB across four DIMM slots. The board provides extensive storage and expansion options including multiple M.2 slots (one supporting PCIe 5.0 x4), PCIe 5.0 and PCIe 4.0 lanes, integrated Wi‑Fi 7 and 5 GbE LAN, and a 16+2+2 digital VRM for stable power delivery.

Advantages

The motherboard combines high-speed connectivity, advanced thermal solutions and flexible storage options to support demanding workloads. Its digital twin 16+2+2 phase VRM and enhanced cooling features (VRM Thermal Armor, M.2 Thermal Guard variants and M.2 EZ‑Flex) improve stability under load. Integrated networking (Wi‑Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.3, 5 GbE) and modern I/O (Dual USB4 Type‑C with DP‑Alt, HDMI) deliver broad compatibility for peripherals and displays.

Suitable for

  • High‑end gaming PCs requiring PCIe 5.0 storage and fast networking
  • Content creators and professionals needing multi‑drive high‑speed storage and large memory capacity
  • System builders seeking a feature‑rich ATX AM5 platform with Wi‑Fi 7 and advanced VRM cooling

Key specifications

  • Form factor: ATX
  • Chipset: AMD X870
  • Processor support: AMD Socket AM5 — Ryzen 7000 / 8000 / 9000 Series
  • Memory: DDR5‑SDRAM, 4 DIMM slots, up to 256 GB, DDR5 OC up to 8200 MT/s
  • Power delivery: Digital twin 16+2+2 phase VRM
  • Storage: 4× M.2 slots (including PCIe 5.0 x4), SATA III, up to 6 storage drives supported
  • Expansion: 2× PCIe 5.0 slots, 2× PCIe 4.0 slots
  • Networking: 5 GbE LAN, 2.5 GbE, Wi‑Fi 7 (802.11be) with high‑gain antenna, Bluetooth 5.3
  • Audio: Realtek ALC1220‑VB 7.1 channels
  • I/O: Dual USB4 Type‑C with DP‑Alt, HDMI and other standard ports
  • BIOS: UEFI AMI 512 Mbit; ACPI version 5.0; Clear CMOS jumper

How to use

Install the motherboard into a compatible ATX case and mount an AM5 processor along with the required cooling solution. Populate up to four DDR5 DIMMs, install M.2 SSDs into the dedicated slots (ensure thermal guards are correctly positioned) and connect SATA drives as needed. Attach Wi‑Fi antenna via the EZ‑Plug and connect power, front‑panel headers and peripherals according to the manual. Configure BIOS settings for memory XMP/OC and storage boot order before installing the operating system.

Recommendations

For optimal performance and stability, use high‑quality power supplies, ensure adequate chassis airflow, keep VRM and M.2 thermal guards unobstructed, and update the UEFI BIOS to the latest version when using new Ryzen 8000/9000 series CPUs or high‑frequency DDR5 modules.
