Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the B450 Tomahawk Max motherboard's affordable price, ease of use, and solid performance. Many appreciate its user-friendly BIOS, extensive features including multiple USB ports and fan headers, and compatibility with various components. The inclusion of USB-C and RGB lighting are also frequently praised. While some users found the motherboard slightly large, the positive feedback significantly outweighs the negative.

    Constant USB drop outs making this unusable. Called MSI and talked with the most condescending and rude support person I have ever spoke with. I suggest you spend your money with a more competent brand that stands behind their products.

    It was used and it was burned. When I purchased it, the box looked used, the cashier ensured me it wasn’t. When I took it home, took it out of the package and examined it, I noticed a burn mark right by the RAM slots.... someone burned it and returned it as if it wasn’t used.

    I have easier desktop upgrades. This one take the cake. It’s not an easy desktop upgrade. It is no two years old and it is complicated. Do the research before upgrading.

    Received a defective motherboard just like many people on other websites. I went against my gut and I paid deeply, and still am paying, in wasted time.

    This didn't do the job. You would be better off paying a bit more for a better motherboard.

    Great bang for the buck and upgradability

    Posted .

    Used it in my first ever PC build last September w/ a Ryzen 5 2600, and just recently upgraded to a Ryzen 5 5600x after updating to the most recent BIOS version from MSI's website. It easily supports the new CPU with a stable all-core overclock to 4.7ghz using AMD's Ryzen Master software. I don't much care for my CPU temps being much higher when I try to OC the new CPU in the BIOS, or when enabling Precision Boost Overdrive in the BIOS. Temps always seem to get much higher when I do that in comparison to just doing it in AMD's software. Still to this day, a great bang for the buck MOBO with decent OC capabilities and enough features and decent power delivery and chipset cooling heatsinks for anyone that's looking into getting into custom PC building.
