I wanted a good looking motherboard for my Black and White themed build. I didn't want an X570 as I would have to deal with annoying chipset fans. I then came across this motherboard. It had all the features I wanted. 6 system fan headers, POST Debug LED's, PCIe Gen 4 (only on the the first M.2 and PCIe x16 slots), M.2 heat sink with a Thermal Pad. The VRM's are solid and are easily handling with my Ryzen 7 5800X. Didn't need to update the BIOS using BIOS Flashback as it is April 2021 and all AMD 500 series Motherboards should have the new BIOS update if it was manufactured before the Zen 3 launch (November 2020). I am using a PCIe 4.0 M.2 NVMe SSD and a crystal disk mark run shows that I am getting Gen 4 speeds,

Bought the B550-A PRO motherboard as it had what I needed for my PC upgrade. (Coming from FX-8350 build)Once the new Ryzen CPUs are out, I will do a bios update and upgrade to one of those CPUs.I have temporarily installed a Ryzen 3 3100 until the new CPUs arrive. Along with 2x 8GB sticks of Corsair DDR4 3200mhz ram. (Edit Feb2021: Have put Ryzen 5 5600X in it now after updating bios to latest)Definitely liking the build quality and look of the board.It has 6 SATAIII ports which I need as I have a lot of storage drives, and still use my PCs Blu-ray drive. Also 2x M.2 slots, my boot drive is on a PCIe 4.0 nvme SSD in the top slot.6x 4-pin system fan connectors,

Probably the most reasonably priced B550 board given the VRM heatsink, and obvious chipset improvements over B450. The power delivery and heatsink cope better than the B450 Tomahawk when paired with higher-end processors (source: hardware unboxed). Plus you also get the added features of B550 over B450 - gen4 PCIe on the M.2 and GPU slots (but not the general purpose lanes).There are plenty of headers and rear IO is decent. However, ethernet is 1G lan, not the 2.5G pictured. The only other small gripes are with the cheap IO shield - but minor considering it's out of sight, and the MSI bios mouse being a pain.Overall, this is a well priced motherboard with a good lifespan ahead of it.

I LOVE IT.Great piece of kit, I used for NZXT H510I case because it has USB 3.0 so if you are wondering yes this is a great motherboard for the case. I had no problems installing as a noobie. Something I dreaded became something I wish I could do again. Was very satisfying to go into bios and see everything work perfectly. I love the “pro series” logo. Everything works fine after testing. Easy to install. Recommend.

Recently got a 5800x and needed a motherboard that paired well with it and also had a Type C connector for my case and this board ticked all the boxes. Been using it for around a week now with no issues. I guess the only downside was the box was quite damaged and did worry me a tiny bit but luckily the contents were protected enough.

This board is for the all black everything person.Quality of the board is second to none for the price, MSI have done a great job of making a board that's both affordable and still has a respectable set of features for a B550 series board. Plenty of fan headers, USB C and RGB headers make for a good overall purchase.

So far so good with this motherboard. Freaking easy to install, 2 nvme slots, several fan slots, black and sleek, looks just awesome if you're looking for a budget low profile build.
