Great board

ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming AMD AM4 Zen 3 Ryzen 5000 & 3rd Gen Ryzen ATX Gaming Motherboard (PCIe 4.0, 2.5Gb LAN, BIOS Flashback, HDMI 2.1, Addressable Gen 2 RGB Header and Aura Sync)
ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming AMD AM4 Zen 3 Ryzen 5000 & 3rd Gen Ryzen ATX Gaming Motherboard (PCIe 4.0, 2.5Gb LAN, BIOS Flashback, HDMI 2.1, Addressable Gen 2 RGB Header and Aura Sync)

Pros: -great motherboard temperatures when paired with a ryzen 5 5600x -this thing looks amazing! -flashing the bios is extremely easy. I bought this board when it still needed a bios update to run with ryzen 5000. Luckily, you can still update the bios without a cpu/ram. Other manufactures don't have this feature, which is key of you don't have a ryzen 3000 cpu laying around. -very nice packaging and accessories

Cons: -it's expensive

Overall Review: I would recommend this to someone looking for a premium motherboard that has some great features.

cheap case

Pros: -good airflow -cheap (I bought it when it was $40)

Cons: -the rgb fans included are low quality and look alot worse than the pictures -very cheap and flimsy material -due to the size of the case, it is difficult to manage cables at all. -The led controller is very fragile, I managed to break one of the 3 pin ports by closing the case wrong.

Overall Review: I wouldn't recommend this case if it is more than $30-40. It's just really cheap, and every part of the case feels like it.

Works and looks Great!

Great budget case but not without a few flaws

Rosewill ZIRCON I ATX Mid Tower Gaming PC Computer Case with RGB Fan & LED Light Strips, 240mm AIO Support, Bottom Mount PSU & HDD/SSD, Tempered Glass & Black Steel
Rosewill ZIRCON I ATX Mid Tower Gaming PC Computer Case with RGB Fan & LED Light Strips, 240mm AIO Support, Bottom Mount PSU & HDD/SSD, Tempered Glass & Black Steel

Pros: -Has a lot of RGB for its price tag and the leds are good quality -There is a decent amount of airflow even though the front is solid -you can mount the GPU vertically if you have a pcie riser cable -Has a quality feel and a good weight to it -you are able to add more of rosewill's rgb fans via the fan controller provided with the case

Cons: -cable management is a real pain as there is not enough space in the back of the case, for perspective, the fan controller provided can only fit in the deeper part of the case and gets in the way of your psu cables -The psu bay is really short and I would recommend using a semi modular power supply as there isn't any space to stuff your cables into except for the the hard drive bays

Overall Review: I would recommend this case for people who are on a budget but still want an ascetic rgb case. Its good quality but its downfall is that cable management is a problem. Rosewill did a good job with this one but it isn't perfect.
