Pros & Cons
Pros
Decent bios, easy to configure xmp, nice board level rgb, not overdone. Power phase is fantastic and i am fully using 8 pin + 4 pin connected and it does help boosting for pbo and power management. Bios reset button on the bottom of the board is super... Read More
Aesthetically, it's almost perfect. Good quality, heavy, not easily damaged by an inexperienced builder such as myself.
Msi b550 gaming carbon wifi. Comes with heat-sinks for both of the m. M. Gb/s lan, m. Corsair a500 cpu cooler. Has a samsung 870 evo 2tb pci-e gen 4 ssd.
The b550 carbon is nice looking and lives up to it's standards but is highly overpriced at this time. If you can get it cheaper, it's a no-brainer. The price was also obtained at a great price through the * sale.
There were a few hiccups early on when running msi dragon center. Everything works perfectly! Functionally, no issues so far.
Cons
Month on symptoms with usb persist. I dislike the fact that it doesn't work and won't boot into windows.
Highlights
Quality
I've had zero problems with any of these devices interfacing with the board.
Thanks for good price to great product.
But, flash bios update works very good!
Bought this for the ryzen 7 5800x, installed the newest bios on a usb, but when i booted i didn't even need to update the bios,... Read More
Price
The price was also obtained at a great price through the blackout sale.
They are forming a very affordable price.
Price was decent, if not quite as low as i would like.
Packaging/appearance
I specifically chose this due to the superior cooling on the vrms and power-phases.
Many boards at the this price range will only have direct contact on the vrms but not the power-phases.
I have taken the overclock off the ram but that's because it isn't samsung b die and would start crashing after long periods bu... Read More
Competitiveness
Running a ryzen 7 5800x with an msi ventus rtx 3080 oc in a fractal design meshify 2xl case.
Supports my crucial ballistix 3600 c16 and my ryzen 5 5600x out of the box.
And i could not justify spending the money on a x570 ace.
I have a ryzen 5 5600x cpu and had to flash the bios to get it to work properly.

The cpu is very hot and the vrm heatsinks on this board tend to get hot as well so make sure you get good airflow and cooling solutions
