PPP, price, performance, power!

ASUS Prime B550M-A WiFi AMD AM4 (3rd Gen Ryzen) Micro ATX Motherboard (PCIe 4.0, WiFi 6, ECC Memory, 1Gb LAN, HDMI 2.1/D-Sub, 4K@60HZ, Addressable Gen 2 RGB Header and Aura Sync)
ASUS Prime B550M-A WiFi AMD AM4 (3rd Gen Ryzen) Micro ATX Motherboard (PCIe 4.0, WiFi 6, ECC Memory, 1Gb LAN, HDMI 2.1/D-Sub, 4K@60HZ, Addressable Gen 2 RGB Header and Aura Sync)

Pros: BIOS updated out of the box to support 4th generation Ryzen CPUs. 2 M.2 slots without sacrificing sata ports. Built-in AX WiFi. PCI Express 16 version 4. Etc

Cons: Only 4 sata ports but using the m.2 slots does not disable any of the sata ports so compared to the fullsize atx motherboard with 6 SATA ports two of which are disabled if you use the m.2 port connected to the chip set it is a wash.

Overall Review: Great Mobo for the money, delivery quickly and for free.

Good Price, Good Product, Good Performance
