Most Favorable Review

Great overclocker

MSI MPG B550 GAMING EDGE WIFI AM4 AMD B550 ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Great memory support BIOS Flashback Nice looks Great VRM

Cons: No on-board power/reset or clear CMOS. The clear CMOS jumper is awkwardly placed below the graphics card, it would be nice if it were somewhere more easily reachable. RGB has to be controlled through software, I would like to be able to set some simple solid colors in the BIOS without needing the software.

Overall Review: I'm very happy with this purchase. I got this for my Ryzen 7 5800X. The BIOS Flashback was a little tricky to get working (I had to switch to a lower capacity USB drive) but it did work as advertised. It's running the 5800X perfectly and I have had great results overclocking my RAM. It was also painless to register the mobo for MSI rewards.

Most Critical Review

Axes lose calibration

Logitech 963283-0403 Freedom 2.4 Cordless USB Joystick

Pros: Responsive, feels pretty solid in the hand

Cons: Before I even had to switch out the first set of batteries I've lost calibration on my y and z axes. The supposed auto-calibration does nothing to fix this and I'm stuck in either a constant slow corkscrew or forced to use a largely asymmetrical dead zone.
