Who's getting a b550? Would u consider this one? 🤔

[Limelight]

The fact that you've answered everyone's questions in the comment section makes you a beast. Great content and viewer interaction!

[Goodknight]

built mine early 2024 and this babe delivers. I highly recommend it in 2025 for midrange AM4 build. (AM4 is already a beast and most of us don't need AM5 really) Don't forget to update bios via USB port, preferably early while only hooking PSU.

Have a fully built pc with ryzen 5 5500 and rx 6600, and it runs like a dream!

Ordered this motherboard for a pc I built for my sister in October of 2022. Used a Ryzen 3600x paired with a RTX 2060 super and 16gb Corsair 3600mhz ram. She uses it for gaming primarily and hasn’t contacted me about BSODs or instability yet so the board is functioning exceptionally. Really great board as it also allows her to have many cpu and gpu upgrades in the future should she choose to do so. Overall the motherboard has worked out for her and I don’t regret choosing the board.

Cheers for review, I'm doing a build for my nephew and haven't done any of this kind of thing in about 15 years! A whole new world now.

Just ordered this board today for my first pc build

I think one underrated thing this board has is the extra space between the primary 16x PCIe slot and the first 1x PCIe slot. Other motherboards of this price point just slap on 1x PCIe slots for the sake of it. This motherboard would have been perfect had the last slot be a 1x or 4x in the shape of 16x, but it's good enough the way it is.

I just used this board paired with a ryzen 5 5600X and my old GTX 1660 super, for a budget build for my dad. all in all, it came under 400 USD. I'm quite pleased with it.

9:13 That's a VGA not DVI port. But good review overall. I was looking for one with for the MSI B550M-VC Pro WiFi in particular, but couldn't find any video reviews. This was the next best thing, so thanks!

Just wanted to give a plus 1 for this board. I bought it last year to replace a faulty Lenovo legion motherboard. It runs the latest am4 integrated graphics cpu. It was super easy to setup and has worked flawlessly in my work pc.
Funny enough I have purchased 4 other boards up to 4 times the cost in the last 12 months and this has been the most easy to setup and has worked with little or no fuss, setup issues or anything else. Just goes to show you don’t need to spend crap loads of money. Performance has also been stella. If u don’t plan on overclocking, it can’t be beat.

[mattbrown]

Just ordered this today for my first pc build in years too. Seemed to cover everything I need for casual gaming and a bargain at £100

[G_Machine_Joe]

Just built a gaming PC with it's sister board... B550M-VC WiFi. Ryzen 7 5800X3D and RTX 4070. Installed two 2Tb M.2's and 32GB Corsair RAM. It's been amazing. It has no problems with any of these parts and the WiFi and BT work great.

[limmel]

Just ordered this motherboard for my gf's sister and it's gonna be her first ever PC and I'm glad I made a really solid choice. Thank you for the thoughtful review. Decided to pair it with the R5 5600G so she can use it for school until we find an affordable GPU. Appreciate it mate!

[Tomssvks]

I've got this motherboard, and thanks to your help you've reassured me that this mobo has PCIE GEN 4 (Im getting a RTX 4060 TI 8GB).

[potatoesorsomething]

Thanks for doing this review! I'm currently looking at it as a possible candidate for my pc.

[Latsaaben]

Just ordered one. Need PCI-4 for my new GPU and wanted WIFI aswell. Great video and review!

[jamesgtoxed]

I got 3 of these boards now. The 3rd one j was debating trying another brand but these pro vdh boards are really great!! And nice they still get bios updates. I have one of these in a phantek p400a and another in a tiny 10L matx chassi that feels like itx size.

[Iogena]

1 thing i like the most in this mobo is the ez debug led where almost any other mobo doesnt have. Makes it very easy to troubleshoot.

[OpoSai]

Got it coming in today for a 5600x, giving me confidence when you go through the ports. Nice and discreet without RGB
