Review on πŸš€ High-performance MSI MAG B550M Bazooka Gaming Motherboard - Unleash the Power of AMD AM4 CPUs with DDR4, PCIe 4.0, and Cutting-Edge Features! by Nestor Orbita

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is a good motherboard that suits me

I first bought the Asus TUF Gaming B550M wifi but when assembling my computer found it to be a dead motherboard so I returned it and opted for MSI B550M Bazooka as a replacement as I was able to get it the same day! It's slightly cheaper than the TUF but comparable in specs as it has 2 M.2 slots and more fan headers - something that was important to me. I think the main difference between the two is that Bazooka only has gigabit LAN and no built-in wifi/bluetooth compared to TUF which has 2.5 gigabit LAN and wifi/bluetooth on the motherboard, but that is ok i don't have it i think i will miss these features on the motherboard since i bought an external bluetooth adapter. So far the MSI motherboard has worked well and I had no problem getting it to work with the components listed below: - Lian Li 205M case - Ryzen 5600X - Noctua NH -12S-EVGA 3060 TI-2 Scythe-2 front sucker above OK. se Exhaust Fans-1 Back Spit Exhaust Fan As I write this review, the CPU temperature is currently 24 degrees Celsius and 28 degrees for the graphics card, but overall it averages around 34 degrees Celsius for the processor and 42 degrees for the graphics card. The whole congregation is quiet! One annoyance with overclocking is that the CMOS and reset jumpers are a bit fiddly. reset as it is directly under the graphics card. Next time I buy a motherboard I will definitely buy one that has the CMOS reset button or jumper easily accessible.

Pros
  • There's something in it
Cons
  • Annoying
