Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

With just a few quick clicks easily & safely overclock your ram andamp; cpu. Bios is decent although the menu structure can be a little cyclical.

The motherboard itself is nice. The price was right, the features are right, i am a happy camper!

It's a micro atx b550 mid-budget board that still has everything i need. This board is what brings all of my joy to me this bday with its features that make it shine.

Cons

The motherboard simply is just garbage. I am disappointed that it was not appropriately marked as used and priced accordingly.

The manual specific speed/timing settings are more than a chore to find. The 4 ram dimms are too close together, even for a b550.

Competitiveness

This board performs better then several full atx boards and most more expensive.

Like most i didnt need an x570 so i did a lot of research on b550 mother boards and this one is great so far .

I often purchased asrock boards in the past but the vrm and power solution just could not compare.

In the end it was a toss up between this msi b550m mortar and the comparable asus tuf gaming matx b550 board, most things being... Read More
