Returned already, will not buy again. Wasted a copy of windows pro on a device that is buggy, usb studders, hitching is so bad on 2.0 headers theyre unusable. It only did this when hooked to dedicated graphics card. On board they work fine, i disable c states and tried a bunch of other fixes for this like chipsets and different bios however no use. Do not buy. Save your money and time. Im going intel. You disappointed me with my fx8350 when i bought it in 2015 amd youre disappointing me again almost 10 years later. What a shame.
Mb installed easily into my coolerMaster CMP 510 case. I only had one issue with drivers and that was with blue tooth driver but downloading the Armory crate fixed that issue and found more drivers for the board. Drivers should be on a USB stick instead of a CD as most builds do not have optical drives any more.
really like the board so far. I had a little trouble getting the Wifi to work. Ended up I that the WIFI only works with Window 11. It took be a while to figure that out.
Fast set up, recognized RAM and CPU instantly, easy to utilize BIOS and rock solid performance. I’ve never had a problem with any builds using this motherboard or the B-550M variant.
This motherboard is loaded with features for the extremely relatively low price, like a usb-c port usually found on higher tier motherboards. The rgb is subtle but nice, and the vram and chipset coolers look good. It is really easy to build in. Unimportantly, it is a huge upgrade from my old motherboard, but for a comparable price. Also the Wi-Fi compatibility is fantastic on a motherboard this inexpensive.
Good Motherboard. Does everything I need. Instructions/manual was easy to follow with diagram's to help a first time PC builder. WiFi antenna is a little big. Could be smaller antenna.
