Pros

Great motherboard, but check cpu compatibility. Bought for a 5600g and worked perfectly out of the box. Installed at 5600g amd apu, $179.

Bought this board, refurbished from gigabyte, through amazon for $88. Good board with simple bells and whistles. I also really like how they didn't overdo it with the design.

This motherboard is perfectly adequate for high-end, modern gaming machines. They have an option to upgrade to a ryzen 5000 series in the coming years. I'm not a gamer but it can do some gaming as well.

Built in wifi and bluetooth work great. Magnetic base so it sticks on top of your pc case securely. Wifi/bluetooth antenna is more discreet than i though.

The vrm and ram are very close to the space allotted for cpu coolers, meaning if you use a parallel fin cooler, you may have issues with air flow choking on the ram and vrm cooler. It also has 2x system fan headers, which is fine for most itx builds. ...  Read More

Quality


Used this for my recent itx build very good quality and worked perfect.


I’ve been using this board for a few days now and has been very solid no issues recognized my ram and cpu ryzen 7 3700x w/o any issues.


It's really shocking at the quality of sound produced by this motherboard.


The sata ports are mirrored, which took me a good 5 minutes to realize after trying to plug in a cable and not being able to.

Price


If you’re looking for a mid tier motherboard and are on a budget, this one is great!


For the price, performance and quality, i give it an a+++.


First time buying a true budget motherboard, and for the price i couldn't pass it up.


Using stock stealth cooler, with shroud removed, in the in win chopin pro $120, with ripjaws 4000mt/s cl18 ram for $83.

Shipping


Great fast shipping and price was reasonable.


Mine shipped with the latest bios f15( bios update utility would go any farther).


Shipping was late, packaging was beyond damaged, motherboard was bent.

Packaging/appearance


The amazon picture doesn't even have that on the box.


It'll be designated to package opening duties.


Look for the fan header adapter in the box.

Competitiveness


Of course a big score for the amd crowd is the am4 socket just supports several generations of cpus allowing you to choose one ...  Read More


I have experienced tons of mid-high-end hardware from both intel and different mobo brands.


Previously my platform is running on an asrock b550 itx, which is the cheapest b550 it.


I'm always pairing it with the ryzen 5000 chips like the 5600x.

    Sadly it totally died after three month and the warranty covered it directly return to amazon no complaints


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I found this a520 which is also the only a520 itx you can find now


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Oirginally i thought a520 will lack a lot of features and the mobo will be cheaply made


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But this is easily remedied if needed with a converter from standard usb socket or by adding a pcie card with one on it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There is a usbc port on the back of the board and many cases dont even have a frontfacing port to hook up
