competition motherboard

- installation of the motherboard in my case without any problem - installation of the processor and its ventilrad in 2 times 3 movements - The memory was not a problem either, even though it was mainly designed to work with an Intel processor. - I'm not sure how to install the SSD in M2, but I should have read the manual first. I had to read the manual first. Indeed, 2 slots are provided but the main one has a heatsink that I had not seen initially. So I went for the 2nd slot and I was complaining because the screw to fix the SSD was missing. In fact, if you use the main slot everything is done very quickly and works perfectly. I have to say that my Crucial P2 1TB SSD was recognized immediately and the installation of Windows 10 was done without any problem. - The case for the hard drive is practical but remember to put the power supply in beforehand otherwise you have to reassemble - the slots for the SATA SSDs are very practical - the WIFI works great as well as the bluetooth

Very disappointed with this card

Motherboard that looked good according to the reviews on the internet: a total disappointment once it was up and running. It recognised the processor and all the components without a hitch, the BIOS is up to date and all the drivers are installed, but the USB ports, WiFi antenna and Bluetooth are faulty! My mouse cursor stops moving at random, the WiFi antenna receives the signal from my box very poorly and my Bluetooth devices disconnect intermittently, and all this DES the first time I use it! It's a good thing it's still under warranty, because I'm going to return it or exchange it if I can...

MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI

The MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI motherboard is an excellent board, both in terms of its build quality and its performance. It has built-in Wi-Fi, which is a double advantage: it saves you money, rather than having to buy an additional network card, and it saves you time during installation.

It's the second one I've bought for the installation of one of my PCs, and I'd go back to this model for the next one.
Coupled with a ryzen 5 3600 with 6 cores, this duo is for me an excellent basis for a quality pc!

Perfect.

Good value for money, CM bought to build an office PC on a tight budget for my sister. Nothing to complain about since the purchase! Problem-free delivery.

A motherboard that works well

A motherboard that does what it is asked to do. I'm using it with a Ryzen 5 5600 (non-X version), which is automatically recognised: no Bios flash required.

I was a bit worried when I saw a whole bunch of comments on the internet saying that the Wifi functionality had problems. No doubt that this has been corrected since then, since I haven't noticed anything particular on either Windows 11 or Linux Mint (no need for a particular driver on the latter, apparently): throughput ok, stable latency, no suspicious disconnections.

The Bluetooth part is also functional with no problems detected.

Note: I installed this motherboard in a "Fractal Design Define Mini C" case, and because of the particular positions of the SATA ports and the connector for the USB3.0 ports on the front panel, + the shape of the said case, I have to say that it was really just to plug them in (very little space), and it's certainly not a super relevant motherboard + case duo (my mistake).

Good product

After a failure of my old motherboard (which was 8 years old I think), I hesitated a bit on the new one but no problem with this model.
I was able to mount on it :
- Ryzen 5 3600XT
- 2x16 GB of 3200 RAM (by activating the XMP profile in the UEFI)
- GTX 1070 Ti
- SSD M2 (Crucial P2)
- and several SATA drives
and everything works fine.
Didn't use the built-in Wifi and Bluetooth much but they work fine.

msi card

Pretty versatile motherboard. I'm a bit disappointed with the number of SATA connections but it's still ok. I had a problem with an M.2 nvme SSD, I don't know if it was the card that blocked it so I'm still a bit disappointed on that side but it's still great.

The negative side of the back plate is that if you want to wire for internet and not use the built-in wifi, you REALLY have to push hard on the RJ45 to make it clip into the socket.
