Review on 🔧 MSI B450M PRO-VDH Max Micro-ATX Motherboard - AMD Ryzen 2nd and 3rd Gen AM4, M.2, USB 3.0, DDR4, D-Sub, DVI, HDMI by Jesus Baker

I installed my AMD Ryzen 3400G and upon boot the motherboard recognized the CPU and was working fine! It also recognized two 8GB G.Skill Ripjaws V 3200MHz DDR4 RAM sticks. After installing my operating systems (Windows 10 Pro and Pop_OS!) I went to this motherboard's website and downloaded the bios update and all the drivers for it. I went into the BIOS and updated it, which I definitely did knowing the power was less likely to go out! I strongly recommend connecting to the UPS when updating the BIOS. Once that was complete, it restarted, which took less than ten minutes total. I went back into the BIOS and set up my profiles so the ram ran at 3200MHz, which it did after setting up the profile. I also made sure the motherboard sees everything that is plugged in. I did this using the motherboard overview, where you can mouse over the different ports on the motherboard to see if it recognizes what's plugged in. Every port I checked worked. and all four weak RAM slots worked. I moved the two sticks of RAM I had to to check the other two dark slots. Also, make sure all USB ports are working! And an Ethernet port! Be sure to test all the display outputs you intend to use, even those you know you won't be using. CPU and system fan headers are working. There are two system fan headers, both work. Every port I've been able to test works with audio and all! Please don't forget to check your ports, it absolutely sucks when you run and run everything to find that you have a dead USB port, Ethernet port, etc. Find the dead ports while still in the return window. The only ports I didn't test were the nvme slot and graphics card slot, as well as a few ports I would never use. So far this motherboard is fantastic! Everything works! And the packaging was really good to keep everything safe! This motherboard comes highly recommended, but don't forget to compare other motherboards to this one to make sure it can do everything you want it to! Tempered glass body unless I shine light on it directly. And yes, I will definitely be doing something with ketchup and mustard tows!
