Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good buy on internals

This is a famous MSI B550M Mortar motherboard RTX 3070 BLACK EDITION OC D6 8GB *Because this is not WIFI version I bought an extra WiFi 6 AX3000 PCIe WiFi card from Revain. Install the motherboard in the PC case and plug in the power cables one by one after setting the power supply. After assembling all the processors, memory and video cards, try to run. Luckily it started without any problems and all parts were fully compatible. Some motherboards didn't fit when the RAM went in and there were instances where they were awkward to put in, but the B550m Mortar motherboard was different as it came in clean. Since the default air defense feature is Auto, I didn't touch anything else. The B550m motherboard shows stable overclocking thanks to its excellent power delivery. It seems to play well with an AMD RYZEN 3600 processor and a Gforce RTX 3070 graphics card. Here are the 3D test results. Time Spy: 11,449 (Graphic 13,315, CPU 6,382) Fire Strike: 24,042 (Graphic 32,383, CPU 18,761) - General test - Pros: USB FLASH BIOS update, stable overclocking Cons: None yet :)
