Gigabyte B550 AORUS ELITE V2 (rev. 1.5)

Launch Stability & Compatibility

The initial release vFB establishes platform reliability by integrating AGESA 1.2.0.7, which resolves the widespread fTPM stuttering latency affecting Windows 10 and 11 environments. This foundation is strengthened in vFC, which updates the codebase to AGESA 1.2.0.8; this version specifically optimizes the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, unlocking performance tuning capabilities and refining voltage regulation for 3D V-Cache architectures.

Feature Maturity & Hardware Support

Firmware vFF transitions the system to AGESA 1.2.0.B, introducing critical mitigations for the Inception speculative side-channel vulnerability and patching the LogoFAIL image parsing exploit to secure the UEFI boot process. Development continues with vFGb[Beta], which implements AGESA 1.2.0.C to further stabilize the platform before the introduction of high-severity security patches in later revisions.

Critical Security & Power Management

Recent updates focus on closing hardware-level exploits, with vFGd[Beta] deploying AGESA 1.2.0.Cc to mitigate the Sinkclose SMM Lock Bypass vulnerability. Version vFGg[Beta] addresses microcode signature verification risks via AGESA 1.2.0.E (CVE-2024-36347). The lifecycle concludes with vFGh[Beta] through vFH, which standardize on AGESA 1.2.0.F to resolve a TPM 2.0 out-of-bounds read vulnerability (CVE-2025-2884) and update TPM firmware for Raven2, Picasso, and Vermeer CPUs.
