ASUS Prime B550-PLUS AMD AM4 Zen 3 Ryzen 5000 & 3rd Gen Ryzen ATX Motherboard (PCIe 4.0, ECC Memory, 1Gb LAN, HDMI 2.1, DisPlayPort 1.2 (4K@60HZ), Addressable Gen 2 RGB Header and Aura Sync).

I used the ASUS Prime B550-PLUS AC-HES AMD AM4 motherboard for my home arcade build, and it’s been a fantastic choice. The setup was smooth and the board offers great compatibility with my components. The B550 chipset provides solid performance, and the board handles everything from light gaming to heavy multitasking with ease.I was particularly impressed with the built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, which made setting up my arcade PC wireless and hassle-free. The board’s design is clean and compact, and the onboard audio is crisp, which is perfect for my arcade cabinet’s sound system.Overall, this motherboard offers incredible value for the price. It’s stable, reliable, and more than capable of supporting the needs of a home arcade system. Highly recommend for anyone looking to build or upgrade their setup!

I was building a medium budget pc and this motherboard was a great fit for a reasonable price. Great quality, spacing between components was not an issue. I have had for about 5 months and haven't had any issues with the motherboard. It handles gaming well, temperature holds well with my setup, even with some modern games. I like the lighting options, while it is not essential, but it gives it a nice look. It has handled all updates, gaming, downloads, streaming with no problem or issues, great performance. This is a great value if you are a building a mid budget pc.

I bought a few motherboards from other companies, including ASRock, MSI, and Gigabyte. The MSI and Gigabyte boards were nothing but trouble, and the ASRock board failed within a few days. So, I opted to spend a few extra bucks, not be a cheapskate, and get the Asus board. I should have known better—I’ve never had problems with Asus boards.Absolutely no problems whatsoever—great performance, and it includes their AI Suite, which lets you dynamically or manually adjust fan speeds, something the other boards didn’t offer.One thing it doesn’t have is a USB-C header, but it does have a USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 port on the back. I just plug in a USB-A to USB-C cable, and that works fine for USB-C devices at full speed (10 Gbps), the same as USB-C, compared to standard Gen 1 at 5 Gbps.Another issue is that the graphics card sits very low, so if you're using a micro ATX case, you might not be able to fit case fans at the bottom—like in the Okino's case I have. Otherwise, it’s a great board.

Great motherboard, great price for a budget build. I am not sure if it is just an issue with mine or issue with the Board itself, but the built in Wi-Fi does not work, BIOS says its enabled but going into device manager it has a driver error even after installing all the board drivers. Something to keep in mind in case it isn't just a localized issue to my board. Other than that, everything else works great like its supposed to.

I updated my son's Cyberpower PC to Windows 11. Everything installed successfully, including all the updates. Then after a restart the display wouldn't come on. That Mobo was an MSI B450 Tomahawk and the LED's said VGA problem. Given the circumstance I couldn't believe it suddenly died. I tried numerous times resetting the CMOS, reseating the graphics card, reseating memory, even checked the power supply, etc.I ordered this ASUS Prime B450M-A II as an economic replacement. It arrived in 2 days and was packaged well. The price dropped 2 days after I ordered. The box has labels Windows 11 ready and Ryzen 5000 Series ready. The board comes with backplate, 2 SATA cables, a M2 screw for mounting, a driver disc and the manual. This ASUS mobo is laid out differently than the MSI. I like it better. The graphics card slot is moved over one space with the M2 slot out in the open. With this Mobo you can use a M2 with a heatsink attached. The MSI M2 slot was directly under a dual-slot graphics card. I like the BIOS flashback feature (located on the back) with this board. The BIOS is laid out well, very intuitive and easy to use.I have built several computers over the years with ASUS my go-to brand. This Mobo is a great full featured B450 motherboard for AM4 series CPU's. The BIOS is upgraded to accept Ryzen 5000 series CPU's. Simply put you're getting a great AM4 motherboard for a great price.

I have been building computers for over 20 years, kind of like Asrock motherboards the most. Been wanting a B550 chipset so I can get REAL PCI 4.0 throughput on M.2. Installed this over the weekend and I will say I am impressed. Not a single hang or freeze. Tried 3 diff 4x4 M.2 hard drives. ONLY the Kioxia KBG8... gave me the 4.0 boost, my highest bench was 3900, up from 2800 w 3x4. I am running a R7 3700x, plugged it in and working great. The wifi driver would not load automatically thru windows. Go to Asus website and Wi-Fi drivers, click on more and download all 3 different chipsets. I think it's the 8852BE driver. Try them all, it will work eventually.
