I am not giving this a 5 star and you will see why.
After a month of building my PC this B550 motherboard is very good especially because of the price.
If you have a £1000-£1200 PC budget i highly recommend this
Pros: Lots of fan headers and RGB ones
Bios is very easy to navigate
Looks very good in my case
Cons: The only worry I had when building this is I had to troubleshoot my ram which was the corsair 16GB rgb vengeance ones where both stick of ram worked but the motherboard didn’t boot when I wanted to do dual channel. However if you have the same situation don’t panic i have a solution:
First boot with any of the one stick of ram into A2
Then go into the bios
If XMP is disabled enable it but if it already is, disable and enable.
Once enabled turn off the PC and put the 2nd 8GB in and BOOM it should work :)
Hope it helps with any inconveniences
