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 B550I AORUS PRO AX is a Mini-ITX motherboard based on the AMD B550 chipset and Socket AM4, designed for compact high-performance systems. It supports AMD Ryzen 5000 Series processors and up to 64 GB of DDR4 memory across two DIMM slots with overclocking support up to 5300 MHz (OC). Key onboard features include dual PCIe 3.0 M.2 slots, WiFi 6E, 2.5GbE LAN and USB 3.2 Gen2 ports, providing balanced connectivity and fast storage options for small form-factor builds.

Advantages

The board combines a robust 8-phase digital VRM for stable power delivery with a compact Mini-ITX form factor, enabling reliable performance in space-constrained systems. Integrated WiFi 6E and 2.5GbE LAN deliver modern networking options, while dual M.2 slots and USB 3.2 Gen2 ensure high-speed storage and peripheral connectivity. Support for Ryzen 5000 Series CPUs and high-frequency DDR4 memory allows for strong single-thread and multi-thread performance in gaming and productivity tasks.

Suitable for

  • Compact gaming PCs and small-form-factor builds
  • Home or office workstations requiring high single-core performance
  • Content creation rigs that need fast NVMe storage and reliable networking
  • Upgrades for AM4 platform users seeking WiFi 6E and 2.5GbE connectivity

Key specifications

  • Form factor: Mini ITX
  • Chipset: AMD B550
  • Socket: AM4 (supports AMD Ryzen 5000 Series)
  • Memory: 2 x DIMM, DDR4 up to 64 GB, up to 5300 MHz (OC)
  • Storage: 2 x PCIe 3.0 M.2 slots
  • Networking: WiFi 6E, 2.5GbE LAN
  • USB: USB 3.2 Gen2 ports
  • Power delivery: 8-phase digital VRM

How to use

Install the motherboard into a compatible Mini-ITX chassis and mount an AM4 CPU supported by the B550 chipset, following standard CPU and cooler installation procedures. Populate the two DDR4 DIMM slots with compatible memory modules (up to 64 GB total) and install NVMe SSDs into the M.2 slots for fast storage. Connect power, front-panel headers, and I/O peripherals, then configure BIOS settings to enable desired memory XMP/OC profiles and storage/NIC options. Install the operating system and required drivers from GIGABYTE to ensure full functionality of WiFi 6E, 2.5GbE and chipset features.

Recommendations

For optimal stability and performance, use high-quality cooling suitable for compact cases, update the BIOS to the latest version before installing a Ryzen 5000 Series CPU, and populate memory in dual-channel mode with matched DDR4 modules. Use NVMe drives in the M.2 slots for the operating system and applications to take advantage of faster load times and responsiveness.
