Review on 💻 MSI B550M PRO-VDH WiFi ProSeries Motherboard (AMD AM4, DDR4, PCIe 4.0, SATA 6Gb/s, M.2, USB 3.2 Gen 1, Wi-Fi, DisplayPort, Micro-ATX) by Danny Zapata

Very nice and compact format for Micro ATX builds. I had no trouble installing the motherboard into my NZXT chassis and overall I like the color style. Definitely what I was looking for in a reasonably priced, Wi-Fi compatible motherboard to do most of my graphic design and photo work, as well as some gaming on the side. Installing a fan for your CPU was a hassle. I had to use a power tool to unscrew these suction cups and I strongly advise anyone to exercise extreme caution if you decide to do what I did to install the CPU fan. Definitely one thing I'd like to know before I decide to build my first PC. Everything else went smoothly. I have a GPU with a fan and it fits the motherboard perfectly. I was able to connect all of my components from the case to the motherboard, although I would say the USB Gen 2 3.0 (USB Type-C) connection was a little tricky. The header faces you, not to the right like other USB connectors, so keep that in mind when reassembling. The only thing I would wish for in this motherboard is an additional thermal plate for an additional M.2 port. The single thermal plate connector is used for Gen 4 M.2, but I'd really appreciate it if MSI added an extra one so you can take advantage if you want to use both M.2 connectors. the presence of a thermal cooling pad on both and not just one.
