    You can’t find a cheaper new b550 so why not buy it. It’s basically a x470 with pcie 4.0 for the gpu and ssd. The only bad part about it is the cpu is only pcie 3.0. Still 5 stars

    Use it in my daughter's gaming computer works like a charm. The only thing it doesn't have is wifi, but who needs to spend extra money for a gaming motherboard to have that option.

    Have had 0 issues using this with my 5000 series card. Initially thought I had a bios issue but it seemed to be a issue with me improperly seating the CPU. Very quick boot times.

    Solid motherboard! Ready for next gen and capable of the 3k Ryzen series. There is no backwards compatibility, so be careful. But if you're just getting into the AMD side, this is a great board to start with. Love the USB 3.0 and Optical port.

    Awesome board! Easy install and the manual is well layed out. No wifi which is unfortunate but i knew this going in the inly reason it looses a star for me is purely based off the MSI pricing for a board that is a b550 class at best.

    Excellent Motherboard!! Not only is it reliable, but it has enough IO to accommodate most of your needs as a gamer. I do wish it had another M.2 slot, but 2 is fine (they are stacked)

    Wish the IO board had LED in the Logo Bought to upgrade to PCI.4. Loving the purchase for the purpose of the upgrade. Lots of fan headers, decent amount of IO USB, metal framed PCI bracket, PCI.4 capable, 2 m.2 slots; 1 coming with a shield there just isn't much to complain about. It's all slightly above average.

    Decent motherboard with great overclocking potential. RGB isn't bright but they doesn't affect function so it gets 5 stars anyway.

    It has a lot of high end features at a mid range price. Definitely recommended for a budget build.

    I'm so glad that BestBuy is starting to carry PC parts. I bought a case from another local competitor but returned that case due to poor airflow. I picked up a case at BestBuy and was lucky to find a mobo that supported USB-C on my new case.

    Only had for a couple days now, but it's treated me very well. The lighting in the pictures is a little overstated compared to what you get, but its still very vibrant and adds a nice ambiance to the motherboard.

    I love MSI products! they are reliable and last such a long time. The only issue with this motherboard is it doesn't have built in Wi-Fi in it. If it had it automatically a 5 star rating. But if you are deciding on a graphics card id recommend MSI AMD 6800 and above. They are amazing for graphics!
