It’s a huge upgrade if you have a stock motherboard from a pre-built.

This motherboard was very easy to install and great for new builders. The small writing on the motherboard helps with connecting the right connectors to the motherboard and the color option is a great feature, especially if you’re building it for your kids.

Build quality is great, and the board looks amazing. The Gen 4 m.2 slot is a great feature at this price point.

Had an issue with my Gigabyte x570 Elite where suddenly I couldn't boot into Windows without bluescreening. Even after a wipe and reinstall, it kept boot looping. I thought it was the drive, but it ended up being the motherboard. I bought this MSI B550 Gaming Plus and had no issues. The manual could have been a little clearer on memory configuration, but other than that it was a breeze to set up. I also would have preferred to have more 3 pin RGB headers available towards the top and side. The features on the board are plentiful, there are more than enough SATA slots and I can use both my NVME drives at full speed. I would have enjoyed having a third NVME drive slot, but it's a gamer-grade board, so I didn't expect much.

Does what it’s supposed to do. Very budget oriented board. The manual was very low budget. Does not include bluetooth or wifi. You’ll need to add in another $60 USD if you need both of those.

Pretty good motherboard at a very good price. Did a budget build on black friday and came out with a machine that's way stronger than the usual iBuyPower and whatnot for the same price or less

Worked great for a month and then had to warranty it and get a replacement because my computer would keep freezing and it was traced back to a bad motherboard. Worked great up until then
