Customer Ratings & Reviews

I'll start by stating that I have built a few gaming computers over the past few years and I can tell you from my experience...MSI motherboards are THE WORST! The reason for buying the MSI B550 Tomahawk Max WiFi mobo was that I offered to teach one of my underprivileged students how to "build" a computer. (All money spent was my own.) We made a deal that if he can build it, then he can keep it. The student followed my guidance, did everything correctly (we had all brand new parts - CPU, mobo, monitor, RAM, etc.), and when we went to turn it on...NOTHING! The monitor would not identify. We troubleshot everything - the cables, GPU, etc. Still, no luck. I had the student take everything apart and put it all back together and...NOTHING! I eventually had to take it to a repair shop where we narrowed it down to one of two issues, either it was the RAM or the motherboard. So back to Best Buy to buy MORE RAM, (another $50) plugged the new RAM in and...NOTHING! As explained, this was a build that I spent my own money on for a student of mine and it was so disheartening as what should have taken 3-4 class periods wound up taking a few weeks. So, by the time I had a chance to return the motherboard I had gone over Best Buy's 15 day return policy and was stuck with a brand new, $170 motherboard that was DoA! BB's staff said that I could send it to MSI and they should be able to fix it so I called them, created an invoice ticket and shipped it out for another $18. In the meantime I went online and ordered an ASUS mobo which I have NEVER had issues with. (Another $100) At least we got that up and running...finally...and the student was able to take their new computer home! All that said, it wasn't just this experience with MSI. About two years ago I had purchased another MSI motherboard and recall that I had nothing but problems with that one as well, so much so that I literally tossed the thing on the ground and stomped on it into pieces! MSI has been nothing but worthless in my experience and I will NEVER purchase another motherboard from them. (***I will say they make an amazing monitor, though!) This MSI-B550 is currently at their HQ waiting to be fixed and returned so we shall see if they honor their pledge. Still, if it is fixed and they do send it back then I will have a motherboard with no need for one.

Awesome motherhood with high quality features. Good upgrade.

Like this a lot for my home build. Easy access to everything

He loves how his computer runs now; faster and no pop ups!

very good, it was worth it, great job, thanks again

This motherboard was just the right thing for our PC build.

I am more than satisfied with the product, it arrived in perfect condition just in the correct time frame, I thought it was a great purchase!! Without a doubt it deserves 5 stars

this motherboard fit perfect in case we bought almost like a glove

Came fast and as described. I would recommend this to anyone

My grandsons loved them that is all that mattered to me

Looks great! Audio is perfect! MSI has done it again!

Amazing quality. I’ve been using this motherboard without any issues for months now! The audio is great and the lighting on the motherboard is beautiful. The VRM heat sink is a absolute beauty of a heat sink. It works very well in cooling

Great value for perfomance and that should be the main selling point for the board. Easy to install. I did mess up the front PCI slots but that was a mistake on my part. Be very careful when wiring it.

This is the motherboard for my recent RGB Gaming PC build so far its working very well with the system. The one complaint I have is with the bluetooth adapter. It has very poor range, for some reason, and a lot of latency with controllers. Wifi adapter works well.

easy setup motherboard, came exactly as described.

not too bad of a board could use a better way to update the bios since that was a pain in the rear. Other than that it does much better when updated.

this motherboard was a upgrade from a basic microATX i had. Has newer tech in it for gen 4 M.2 drives way faster. I think it has 6 connectors for fans and also a pump connector as well. 6 SATA ports and 2 M.2 slots

It's awesome, i occurred great service with this board

Perfect Mobo for my build. Plenty of features, built in IO shield, and crazy accessories. Any high-end AM4 would love this board.

I’ll start by saying this isn’t the fastest motherboard you will find but it is a quality build and reliable. Swapping boards is not hard if you have basic computer hardware knowledge and takes about 30 mins.
