    Motherboard worked great with support for new 5 series from AMD. I bought some good ram and the options for ram speed and memory clock are great. Right now DDR4000 and 2000 infinity clock with a 5600x no issues. This system boots into windows 9 secs flat...clean bois.

    Motherboard is good, but is in the ATX form factor. Has to return it because it doesn't fit in my case. Don't know how it runs but the build quality is premium.

    USB drop out with 5 different bios updates over the past year. 5800x3d and 5800 both have the issue. Amp/dac take 10 to 20 minutes to be recognized. Keyboard has drop out. Non issue with my alienware am4 board.

    Was going to replace my existing asus motherboard with this one. Got it home was getting ready to pull it out of the box and something just looked off with it. The board thickness just looked skinny. So i looked up the pcb specs and found its only half the thickness of my asus and most all motherboards.You ask well is it a big deal and yes it is. The thinner the pcb the more cross talk you can get with electrical stuff so like you could get a buzzing sound in you sound while using to play a game and also the board is not as sturdy because its not as thick so the board can bend with heavier video cards so yes you want to steer clear of this board if you ask me. MSI has some of the best motherboards out there so spend a few more bucks and get a better one. Also found out this little issue with the 550 boards Motherboards based on AMD B550 chipsets are only compatible with AMD Ryzen 3000 series processors So i could not use this board because i had a ryzen 5 one of the first series cpu's

    Great board for the money. My Asus ROG B 450-F had issues and moving to this was seamless. My only complaint is that the boards RGB is hidden by your GPU but that's super minor.

    Absolutely fantastic starter motherboard. Connectivity options are superb at this price point. Only reason I returned this item is because I upgraded to a higher spec chipset. Connectivity options are superb at this price point. Only reason for my return is that I needed more USB connectivity so I needed to upgrade to the higher spec chipset from AMD.

    Good budget board, easy to instal and recognized my SSD without any issues, the only thing a little wonky is the “RGB” is going to be blocked by Your graphics card so it’s really not needed.

    Great board overall. Best quality I’ve ever owned, usually bought entry level before. Didn’t give it 5 stars because I can’t get it to recognize my 2nd nvme drive. Doesn’t show up in bios or windows. Trying to get ahold of support to troubleshoot, hopefully I don’t need to take my system apart to RMA.
