(UPDATE 11 - 5) Too busy under the GPU at the very bottom

(Update 11 - 5) This has to be the buggiest thing I've ever had. And remember, I'm upgrading from an A8-5600K and a $45 FM2 mobo. For the price, I should NOT just see my devices randomly shut down and REMAIN disabled until my computer restarts. This has happened to my ethernet and headphone ports so far. Nothing helps except a reboot. So far this happens when I put my computer to sleep (Ethernet) or unplug my headphones. Headphones come out, the port is dead until I reboot. No matter what I do,

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Having doubts

Would buy again! for computers and accessories

ASUS is a leading brand that has been known for its reliable build quality since I started with computers over 25 years ago. I bought it to build for my father (a school teacher) and I will gladly and without hesitation buy it again for my next build. Since reliability is my top priority, I did not overclock the processor. I overclocked the RAM to its rated frequency of 3000MHz and this board did it flawlessly (always check the memory compatibility list on the motherboard manufacturer's…

Pros
  • It's amazing
Cons
  • Clarity

Reliable motherboard for my Ryzen 2600!

Good stuff for my micro build! Fits perfectly in my Masterbox Q300L (no CD/DVD). Came out of the box with an updated bios (yes I checked on the website). Plugged my Ryzen 2600 into mobo, worked at stock speed (3.4) for the first time with my G.Skill Ram and Seasonic PSU. Fine print: Ram worked out of the box. plug and play Mobo recognized the ram at 2133, a quick bios change to 3.0 - no problems found. The same with the CPU. Closing on April 3rd Quick bios change to 3.8 - low volts and…

Pros
  • Great selection
Cons
  • Speed

Excellent motherboard for USB, VR and Ryzen (AFTER bios update)

Excellent motherboard for USB, VR and Ryzen (AFTER bios update) I checked the board carefully before buying to make sure that the PCI slots and SATA ports work fine with my case (Silverstone FT03). I also checked and double checked the hardware compatibility information on the ASUS website and made sure I was buying hardware that would work with the motherboard. But I still had problems. The first was with RAM, I chose the Corsair brand, but then I realized that the RAM I bought had different…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Everything is fine

Review specifically for Linux users with Prime B450M-A and Ryzen 3/5 3200G/3400G processor

First review for me but I have a feeling other (Linux users) might be interested in it . Good value for the money, and it comes (as another reviewer noted) with BIOS 1201. 1201 lets you boot Ryzen 3 or 5 3200G/3400G (note that these chips are actually built on last year's 11nm process and are therefore not true versions of 3000 processors). However, what non-ASUS motherboard users may or may not be aware of is that the BIOS EZ Flash 3 utility provided by ASUS (within BIOS0) does not require the

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Compatibility
