Review on 🎮 ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming: AMD AM4 Zen 3 Ryzen 5000 & 3rd Gen Ryzen ATX Gaming Motherboard with PCIe 4.0, 2.5Gb LAN, BIOS Flashback, HDMI 2.1, Addressable Gen 2 RGB Header, and Aura Sync by Jason Paige

First of all, no, I will not order a replacement for this motherboard. Why? BECAUSE IT IS A MOTHERBOARD REPLACEMENT. And no, it's not a power supply. This is a gold rated power supply from a well known brand with more than enough power. It worked great with my old motherboard. I wrote a lengthy review at first, but ended up going with the most popular method of all: a detailed item listing (no bullets because it doesn't exist in the Revain review) - The first motherboard didn't have a video signal. No, it wasn't a GPU. I replaced all components with the old motherboard and everything worked great. The first motherboard kept throwing random error LEDs on various components. Yes, randomly. "The first motherboard to ever have a hard-fought video conflict would have this creepy, incomprehensible degradation in video integrity every time the PC restarted until it just stopped working. - This happened after the fact that the LAN was not working and I had to set up a local account to do something, install the LAN driver and then do my best to make it work. Trying to troubleshoot and holding down the power button for five seconds to drain the power in the PC will corrupt the BIOS. every time Removed CMOS reset battery and try again. Multiple times - Tired, ordered replacement - Waiting for replacement - *** Got replacement. ***- NO VIDEOS YET.- As we all know, Reddit is the place to go to get information from the most knowledgeable and professional minds on the web and I could tell that to get the video signal to work I would need the Start PC without GPU and then again with GPU enabled to get it working. Wow, it really worked. At least it didn't throw many bugs on other components. - Let's install Windows. Oh yes, LAN is down. Let's jump through that hoop again. - Everything works now, cool. - What are you saying? After a few weeks, did the PC fan start deteriorating and making noise? Let's replace it - Oh look there is no video signal and now the error LED on the motherboard is telling me I have a RAM error. Brand new RAM which I installed two weeks ago with no problems. - Let's just ignore it because that seems to be the case with Asus. - Ignore worked, good. PC restarted. - Oh yeah, silly, you forgot to disable your GPU because you can't get video signal without repeating it once without GPU enabled. - The cycle is complete. The PC is on again. When the motherboard works, it works great. But the setup and problems stemming from something as stupid as replacing a fan is unacceptable to me and unprecedented in 20 years of PC building. I was less annoyed with manual IRQ conflict resolution on older Abit motherboards in the 90's and early 2000's. This is my first and last ASUS purchase. I'll use this one until it runs out, provided I can tolerate the issues, and then I'll go with someone else. However, a good sound chip.
