I bought this board on the 3rd after going through two MSI boards that were dead on arrival. This motherboard went in like candy and windows install was quick and painless. It has a lot of great features including a dedicated port to update bios from usb.Its well worth the money no doubt

Great Board!

I got my motherboard a couple to 3 months ago. It was to outfit a new PC build after 9 years with my previous ASUS motherboard. This board had the features I wanted, it looked good, was a well-thought-out design and had the features I desired to have on it. The design is esthetically pleasing to look at, and it was easy to get set-up with my other components. It's performed well with the Ryzen CPU I paired it with and no issues using it. I feel I chose the right motherboard for my needs. So far, it's functioning like a solid product.

This Motherboard Has Made Me Happy

Part of my new computer pc build, when selecting the parts list. Specs of the motherboard meet what I was looking for in terms of gaming ability support. Highly recommend if looking for Republic of Gamers products.

Perfect motherboard for my use.

If you enjoy walks on the beach, ice cream, the supernatural, gaming, deep learning, and lethal doses of radiation, this is the right motherboard for you!

Great motherboard if you like to get radiated.

My first gaming computer and co.pared to all the other computers I have owned this is the smoothest running I have had.

Vert Fast

I bought this motherboard about a year ago and the audio just stopped working. I called ASUS support for technical assistance. They had me look at settings in my desktop and asked what trouble shooting I had performed. They got my information and then passed the issue to their second level support. Instead of receiving a call, all I received were links for me to use to solve my problem and let us know if you need anything else. ASUS needs to create a Support category for review.

Audio Just Stopped Working

Bought this motherboard in December and I can comfortably say it works like a charm. I would highly recommend this board to anyone building a pc and is looking for a pretty good board for an affordable price. Definitely got lucky finding this board as it was the last one in stock at microcenter!

A great board for a great price

I really love this board. Bios is familiar and easy to navigate, and the board runs great! Only thing I'd do different if I had to do it all over again is that I would get the wifi version for a few dollars more. Otherwise this is pretty much perfect.

Very nice board! Wish I'd gotten the WiFi version

The B-550-F board came in great condition, and I was able to start assembling my new pc.

Pros:

> PCIE 4.0 speed.
> BIOS flashback button.
> Lots of USB 3.0 and 2.0 ports.

Cons:

> This board does not have a wifi/bluetooth card on it. I knew I needed a new motherboard with PCIE 4.0, but I forgot to check if they came with wifi/bluetooth cards installed. 

// I personally would've spent more money to get those features, but it's not a deal breaker for me anymore. 

> No USB-C motherboard header.

Overall:

I'd recommend this board, and if you don't want to use AUX, or wired xbox controller, then you  should spend more for a motherboard with it. 

// I could buy wifi card, or bluetooth, but thats just extra steps I'd have to take.

// ALSO, if you are using an AIO cooler, then you might get a CPU FAN ERROR when your pc posts. The solution that worked for me, was to go into BIOS and set the cpu fan from Monitor -> Ignore. and it worked.
