Good motherboard at a very good price, as this motherboard only supports PBO and not overclocking, go for a good processor and RAM if you play big games (Cyberpunk, etc) or go for a socket B550 motherboard, if it's for "normal" use it's more than enough!
Very satisfied with the motherboard, the only complaint is that the memory slot is too close to the processor, i.e. the fan of my AMT Ryzen 3 pushes the memory strip located in the first slot slightly.
To avoid this, you need to buy single thin memory sticks without the thick plastic contours made for the design
A reasonable price for a motherboard that offers the basics and nothing extraneous. The Q-flash feature, which allows you to update the BIOS without the presence of a processor, is useful when you buy a newer processor that is not supported by the factory BIOS. The interface for managing fan speed profiles is easy to use.
One downside: the integrated audio chipset has a rather average performance.
