Says it's compatible with Ryzen 5000 series but that's only true if you have an old CPU to upgrade the BIOS. Anything of reasonable modern speed is not compatible. Support is 0 help with this situation they're literally clueless and either can't understand this basic problem or have been given instructions to categorically deny the problem's existence.

Dear Helmetwearer,
We do understand your disappointment with your recent customer service experience and the inconvenience this may have caused.
We do value our customers and take negative customer service experience very seriously. This is not the quality of service expected from ASUS. We continuously strive to improve our approach and processes in order to achieve customer service excellence. If the BIOS version was outdated to support the Ryzen 5000 series CPU, we recommend sending the motherboard for warranty service to flash the BIOS to the lastest version. A RMA number is required to send it in for service. For RMA details, please go to: https://www.asus.com/us/support/article/818/. If you need further assistance with the warranty service for the product, please email me at cl-rodel@asus.com and I would be more than happy to help. Or, you are most welcome to call Product Support Hotline at: 1(888) 678-3688. Also, you can chat with an ASUS live support agent from the link: https://www.asus.com/us/support/article/1135/.
Thank you for choosing an ASUS product.
Regards,
Rodel ASUS Customer Loyalty

Great basic B550 motherboard. My Ryzen 5 5600G worked perfectly without a BIOS update. The RAM and M.2 storage installed easily and work flawlessly. The UEFI is good enough for what I need. Excellent price for this basic, yet powerful, motherboard.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This motherboard has very easy to work with, and there is more than enough connections in the io port which makes connecting accessories a breeze wether for recharging or wireless connectivity. The battery is also located in a very accessible spot to make troubleshooting easy. I give it a solid 5
