    I bought my computer around an AMD5600X series CPU and after much research and comparing motherboards this one was the best one I could afford on a budget and it works great.

    It was too big for my case which is my fault. Stuck it in anyway and have been enjoying my frankenstein abomination for some time now.

    Really like this motherboard got it with my 5900x. Only thing that was a bit of an issue was that i had to go into the BIOS to control how my computers fans worked. The Motherboard will crank them up to 100% for no reason. But after this curve everything has been amazing. ALSO THIS IS BIG this motherboard does not have WIFI like the description states. Found this out after i purchased it and put it together, And I am not taking this apart again, so i bought a 6E PCI wifi card. I would have gave the product 5 star but both the best buy store and the associate messed that up by not knowing or having the proper product description cause after doing a build its a pain to unassembled it and rebuild again. So it gets three Starts

    Motherboard has everything I need. All parts worked fine with motherboard. RGB looks Great. Motherboard Home Screen has everything you need to validate inventory and setup bootstrap config. The only thing that bothered me was when I was building the PC the mouse was slow from motherboard bios screen before I got the OS installed.

    This is a solid motherboard. The wiring instructions were akin to IKEA furniture assembly instructions though. My biggest complaint is that the MB doesn’t have onboard WiFi or Bluetooth. It was my oversight, but I won’t cry too much. USB adaptors for both are inexpensive and readily available. There is also only a single SSD slot.

    My first MSI motherboard

    I've been an ASUS motherboard fan for the past 20+ years. However, with their steady decline in both quality and customer service over the past several years (not to mention the exploding 7800X3D debacle), I decided to try a different brand when it came time to build another system. I went with the B550 because of the good reviews, and also it had everything I needed and the price was acceptable. I didn't need the latest and greatest since I'm just pairing it with an older AM4 chip. So far it's been rock stable and I've had no major problems other than some odd behavior when it scanned the DRAM the first few boot-ups. It would take a long time to boot until I enabled the XMP memory profile in BIOS. Now everything runs great.

    DISCLAIMER: I am a current Geek Squad Agent. Two M.2s, dedicated JRGB, tons of USBs, room to add more via connectors, six SATA ports, at least five 4-pin case fan headers (might be a sixth). And a fully featured BIOS. Would recommend.

    I've been using this motherboard with a 3700 for about 1.5 years with great success. The drivers provide a lot of overclocking options, but I've only used the auto so far. Things are working well so far with Samsung Pro 270 M.2 and a spinning drive as well as 16GB RAM.
