Customer Ratings & Reviews

Lacks sufficient cables to actually build, your going to need to buy separately own any cables you may need. Only comes with 2 SATA cables.

This product does what it needs to do. A bit over priced compared to other stores

Arrived DOA and wasted hours of troubleshooting. Major pain in the rear.

Was not what i needed. It did not have wifi.... :(

Does not detect any drive internal nor external, none of my 8 hdd or ssd of various brands would be detected. None of my 10+ external usbs would be detected even for qflash. Was given a 30 day return timeframe. It is two days prior to that being up and I am unable to exchange this crappy board that I spent $170 on.

Improvement from the MSI B550-A Pro. Solid board. Competes with low end X570 boards. Good power stage delivery, good capacitors and mosfets. Just watch youtube videos for specs and reviews

Great budget gaming computer board with good m2 slot for fast gaming

Pretty rock solid board. No frills and does everything you will need for gaming. I do not need all that fancy RGB lights or covers. I just need it to work and game.

Works very well my only issue is the rgb on the board isnt programable and only does rainbow

MSI was a brand I looked kindly on before I bought this steaming pile of trash. I refuse to even consider purchasing another MSI product after my experience with this awful board and even worse customer service. The board worked flawlessly for about a day and then refused to boot properly and got stuck in a self repair loop. I wiped the SSD and then the computer refused to accept windows. I shipped it to MSI and 3 months later they shipped me a ‘new’ board in the worst packaging I have ever seen. After that I quickly got everything set up how it was before and it booted to my desktop and I was exited. THEN the monitor begins to constantly flicker in and out like a graphics driver is being updated/installed. When the screen isn’t locking up it’s hard crashing and going into a self repair state. This is the worst experience I have EVER had with any PC parts. I wouldn’t recommend this to people I hate, let alone friends.

It was a good motherboard but not the best for my components so I would give it a three start.

Flash bios button doesn’t really work very well but still great board

I purchased this MSI B550 but it turned out to be defective. It was my first build but the guy helping me has built quite a few and said he has had a couple of faulty motherboards out of the box that have only been MSI brand. The heat-sync is what stood out to me on this MOBO but since I couldn't use it, I wound up returning it for a B570

Its a horrible experience with this board, And MSI service is even worse. You have to pay to get it fixed, ( yes if you have to pay for your own shipping its payig to get your device fixed). So you might want to keep that in mind also. From day one I have had problems turning on the finished computer and now after all the extra money and time spent sending and waiting in hopes of MSI fixing the board, sorry to say they made it worse, now it won't even turn on at all, so far its been a total waste of money.

I chose this as my first AIO cooler and I am pleased with it. It fits my medium ATX case and keepsy 5900x very cool. The app makes customization easy.

The motherboard doesn't support a Gen 4 nvme. you'll get nothing but a black screen. Google this issue with the B550 boards. I am not the only one. I am just disappointed that I have a defective board and am out of the return period. The msi team hasn't been helpful either. What a shame!

Had to return this product as it was not compatible with my processor

Didnt need wifi, used for a medium duty gaming and work rig. Good value. Rgb’s dont show much but didnt bother me.

Bought because I wanted usb type c support and a better board than a budget b450 board. My 3700x should have just slotted in and worked, but it was always stuck on boot led. No matter what. Ssd, no ssd, windows USB, everything. Took cooler off, took ssds out, nothing plugged in but CPU and a low power gpu. Nothing. Returned. Got the same board. Exact same issue, stuck on boot led. Decided to try a Ryzen 5900x I borrowed. (Box says 5000 series ready) no luck. Returned the board. Got a 12700k and z690 board instead and it worked (not out of the box, but hey, it works now.) Simply tired of amd being finniky. And I've been using them since the 1600 on launch day.

Great budget motherboard with AM4 socket just need to buy a procer with graphics programed or you need to buy a GPU
