Review on 🎮 Optimized for Gaming: MSI MAG B550 TOMAHAWK Motherboard - AMD AM4, DDR4, PCIe 4.0, SATA 6Gb/s, M.2, USB 3.2 Gen 2, HDMI/DP, ATX - Supports AMD Ryzen 5000 Series Processors by Brad Arthur

If you're looking for a solid Ryzen 3xxx or 5xxx board, the B550 MAG Tomahawk is a solid choice. There's a video to prove it) I have a board paired with a Ryzen 3800XT to build for work and play and I'm not worried about my VRM overheating. 2) If you are overclocking or just tweaking your CPU and RAM, all options are easy to find in BIOS. I don't overclock my CPU, but I see a lot of options when manually adjusting RAM. 3) The RAM QVL list is extensive, which is a big plus when dealing with Ryzen builds. Locate the RAM in the QVL list and you can enable A-XMP to run the RAM smoothly at its rated speed. I had no problems with a Hyper X Predator 3200 CL 16 DDR4 RAM with A-XMP and was able to improve the setup with a Ryzen storage calculator4) Two M.2 NVME SSD slots (Gen 4 and Gen 3) and 6 SATA ports ( when using M.2 none will be disabled). This is a big plus if you use SATA SSDs and HDDs for gaming and storage, but still benefit from NVME speeds for downloads and applications. The NVME slots come with removable heat shields, which is a nice bonus if you have an NVME with its own heatsink.5) There's a switch on the board to turn off the colored lights. Great for those of us more interested in functionality and the lack of see-through cases. 6) IO Shield is integrated into the board. This is great for not struggling with the screen when aligning the motherboard bracket. 7) Reinforced PCIE slot for graphics card. These gaming GPUs are no lightweights! 8) Built-in good quality audio and with SPDIF output 9) Motherboard layout is great for accessing various ports and installation connectors during assembly. I can't think of anything else to say. I've had this build motherboard since October and it has seamlessly become the heart of my personal system where I practice programming, record audio for language learning, play some AAA games on Steam and do other trivial things (webview, office, etc.)
