Pros: - Super reliable - Wide array of configuration options - Supports virtualization, ECC RAM, IOMMU. Great for a hypervisor setup. - 4 SATA ports is probably the sweet spot for a micro ATX board. - Dual m.2 slots. - Very little packaging - Good value for the money

Cons: I haven't encountered any issues with this motherboard.

Overall Review: Fantastic experience. I've been using ASUS motherboard for literally decades and the quality is always on point. Great price point enabled by B550 - smart move by AMD to introduce this IMO. This is for a home server / HTPC / NAS and it works great. I upgraded the BIOS out of the box, configured it how I wanted, and was off to the races. Zero issues since.

Pros: Micro atx. Already had latest bios. Witch was nice.

Overall Review: I would buy again.

Pros: Well designed and compact. Good to have 4 RAM and 2 NvMe slots for future expansion.

Cons: Can only think that as a "commercial" board, it would be nice to have a built-in backplate like the Asus ROG series to speed up installation for many units, but not an issue at all for the average DIYer.

Overall Review: Highly recommended and would buy again.

Pros: It supports ryzen 5000 and has pcie 4

Cons: My Corsair vengeance rgb pro wont run on xmp/docp it will just keep boot looping until it boots into safe mode and my cpu 5600x is running pretty hot because the vrms on the mobo themselves are pretty hot.

Overall Review: It allows me to use my ryzen 5600x and get the most out of my pcie 4 6500xt ( I know its a horrible gpu) but it runs my cpu pretty hot because of the vrms being pretty hot. I will upgrade my cpu cooler to see if this makes a difference but Im seeing 56-60 idle temps on my cpu and I know its because of the motherboard. And as high as 74 in games with less than 80% usage in some cases I cant really recommend this board unless youre on an ultra budget but I cant complain to much I got what I paid for.

Pros: Asus mobo is quick and easy to setup and use. The bios is easy to understand and use.

Cons: The motherboard doesn't have indicator leds to know if one part of the boot sequence isn't working.

Overall Review: I'd recommend this as long as you were sure all your parts are working fine.

Pros: MoBo wasn't all bad, and had a lot of features that I wanted.

Cons: It wasn't fully working/DOA.

Overall Review: It's a solid, basic MoBo, however I can't really give it a high rating given I had to return it. Process was smooth and got my money back, and I don't think it was badly designed, just the average DOA MoBo.

Pros: Haven't been able to get computer boot up yet with all memory, so there are no Pro s as of yet.

Cons: Where do I start, first one came in dead, second one came to me with dead third memory plug, so with what I am doing with computer I need all 32 gig of ram and still not working as advertised yet.

Overall Review: I was having good luck with ASUS until this build, don't know whether it is the B550M-A or what, read a lot of good stuff about the mother board but my luck is just not good yet. And waiting for 2 weeks to replace, sucks. There technical support is good on weekends to find problem, but waiting 2 weeks for new item is a bummer.

Pros: Easy to set up. Easy BIOS to use. Looks nice Good for first build

Overall Review: So this is my first time doing this. But have to say so far I am pretty happy with my set up so far. Would recommend for a first time build.
