Pros & Cons
Pros
More pcie slots, usb upgrade, an extra m2 clot, better cpu socket placement. Received the package with zero problems. Comes with flash bios which is a nice insurance policy on am4 sockets.
Msi's reputation for build quality is evident in the product's construction. This contributes to a sense of reliability and durability. Awesome durability to be expected.
Once you figure it out, it's a really nice peice of tech for the price.
Muy buena le instale 32 ram y un m.
Cons
Updated the bios on the device, tried underclocking the cpu, reseated and swapped out all parts with parts from a functioning build. No xmp (ram at 2666). Ddu & reinstall drivers (tried 10 different versions) bios flashback still fails - blinks in... Read More
Kind of bunk. Not disabled or not working properply. Am expecting a response to resolve the issue. Really frustrating honestly.
This board is just a headache and a gaint waste of time in the end. My pay a little more money and get a better board (suggest an asus rog board). My assumption is that this board is not made to handle the higher end cpus.

Bought this because my other motherboard couldn't support bios flash for a newer amd cpu.
Despite being relatively tech-savvy, this motherboard was used in the first pc i built from scratch.
Price
This board was affordable and has included wifi/blutooth.
I got this for a budget build to be used primarily for my kid's roblox gaming sessions.
Ended up shelling out an extra $60 to get an rtx 3050 just to get something from a reputable company.
It costs a little more money, but it can make the initial windows install and driver updates infinitely easier.
Packaging/appearance
I was going to give it 5 stars, but the screws were missing in the box.
Competitiveness
I highly recommend it over the equivalent asus model.
If you are looking at this motherboard, you've probably looked at the asus equivalent.

Costs more than a cheaper b550 but the ability to flash the bios without an old cpu is worth a couple bucks

They put a heat sink on the vrm too which i assume does something because it doesnt look like a spaceship so it isnt a cosmetic decision sometimes they are apparently

When compared to most gaming motherboards all this is missing is the aesthetics but if you dont care about that then this is a great board for gaming and office use
