ASRock B450 Steel Legend Motherboard with AMD Promontory B450 and DDR4 🔧 Support for Quad CrossFireX, SATA3 & USB3.1, M.2, A&GbE, and ATX Form Factor. Review

The board is only a pleasure to use. The board is overclocked 24/7 with Ryzen 1600X at 3.9GHz 1.25V and HyperX Predator RGB RAM (Hynix CJR chips) at 3466MHz 1.37V with timings of 16-19-19-36.

I chose by the number of memory slots, the chip and the ports on the rear panel. I don’t really like the color backlighting of the system unit, but it’s not particularly annoying here, it looks quite snooty)

there is armor on one of the M2 slots and the size of the screw is very small, I could not find a screwdriver of this size, I had to sweat and I unscrewed one, but the second soap is very tightly tightened and I pulled a little and it came off by the root, but everything works fine

Unveiling my candid assessment.I bought an A8 percent without looking at processor support. Then I had to change the percentage to Athlon

Personal thoughts on this item.I put 3070 and the thermal pad of the time zone flowed, I think to put a couple of fans on top of the blower, it might help

Personal feedback on the product.Pros below: A very good mother. Good for overclocking. Price. Quality Different cons: Of course, there are flaws everywhere. But did not reveal

This mother was bought in September 2022 for ryzen 3600 for 8 thousand in the PlayerRu store, in general, a good mother, except for software. Pros below: Beautiful BIOS shell, looks better than Gigabyte Ultra Gaming. The m2 slot is above the graphics card. Cons: Sloppy software, Asrok polychrome is a complete bottom, it is better to configure the fans in the BIOS, Gigabyte has done it more or less for people.

Delving into my product journey.received a defective fee the memory worked only in 1 slot, I handed over this garbage back to the store

One of the M2 slots is armored, and the size of the screw is so tiny that I couldn't find a screwdriver of that size without breaking a sweat. Nevertheless, the second screw is very firmly tightened, and when I tugged a little on it, it came off by the root, but otherwise, everything is OK.

A really nasty incident occurred while the machine was being assembled. The motherboard was unresponsive right out of the box. Only the lighting and the fans (for the CPU cooler, video cooling, etc.) turn on when the device is turned on. Black screen; the computer won't boot up. In spite of being a wild anachronism, I connected a speaker because loading 5 signals indicates that the mother does not see the processor. An old firmware was the first thing that immediately into my thoughts. None of…

It functions perfectly, particularly following the mother gigabyte ab350-m gaming 3. When the old mother was around, the computer would frequently reboot, display a warning that the RAM was low, and occasionally freeze up. I didn't want to blame my mother. But in the end, I switched from gigabit to asrok, and my god, the bugs were all gone and the computer started up without the need to reinstall. Despite the fact that it appeared to be at least required to reinstall Windows. But no. In…

In essence, the b450 board, respectively, it was obviously not developed for the 3900x or the 3700x; consequently, in my understanding, the cooling system, or rather its deficiencies and nuances, are leveled. Let's take a look at these things. I don't know, I connected it and everything worked, I overclocked the RAM to 3333 and 2600 percent, everything works fine, the temperature of the board does not exceed 50 degrees (with proper cooling of the case), so I think that all of the negative talk…

Definitely worth your money. Pros: Excellent motherboard. Ryzen 5 2600 processor with 32 GB of memory at 3000 MHz. 4 sticks of 8 GB. HX432C16PB3A. 2 places under m2, beautiful lighting. There was a choice between this and Aorus elite. I don't regret a bit. Has cons: Not found. The only thing I noticed was 2 dies at 3200 or 4 at 3000 MHz. Perhaps for someone it will be a drawback, but it glows even when the computer is turned off. I use it as a night light :)

Satisfied with my choice Pros below: Customizable backlight convenient location of memory and cooler Cons below: inability to select a different mode for the cooler and other modules

the motherboard for the money in my opinion justifies itself Different pros: beautiful mother with many pluses, supports 3 generations out of the box but flashing bios and higher Cons below: strange settings from the factory, RGB does not turn off after turning off the PC itself, after picking in the BIOS, I found this item and set it to the desired position

Some pros: Beautiful appearance, a large number of connectors for fans, the ability to connect three RGB backlight channels With its cons. It may not immediately start the first time, by trial and error it can be started

I took it for 8000. I did not regret it, the only thing is that be more careful with the mounts for the tower. And apparently due to my inattention, one of the coolers did not get the backlight. And so happy with the purchase =)

This is a great B450 board but there are a few important things I would like to emphasize to potential buyers: 1. I have received 2 of these boards so far (the first board was accidentally returned - more on that below ). ), and both boards arrived Ryzen 3000 ready, with stickers on the box advertising them as such. Both were able to post with my Ryzen 5 3600 without any problems. If you're careful to buy from Revain and not a third party, you're almost guaranteed to get a finished Ryzen 3000.2

There were few reviews of the B450 Steel Legend at the time of purchase so I decided to take a chance and am glad I did. After a small issue of not releasing the system (see below) it's been a great board to work with ever since. The look of this board is amazing, it's minimal and clean with good use of digital camo printing, steel accents and RGB. . This is a fresh look compared to other playable MOBOs on the market. (See photo for example RGB.) The BIOS is easy to navigate and comes with…

The second PCIe graphics card slot was DOA when it arrived. I'm sending it back for an exchange as it's a newer board. I will update this review after trying to replace the board. The replacement motherboard has arrived. Unfortunately, the second PCIe graphics slot didn't work again. I tried three different cards and none worked. After reading another review of this motherboard on NewEgg, it was found that using an NVMe drive disables the second PCIe graphics card slot. It was just a bad design
