Dual M.2
Two high-speed M.2 slots. One PCIe Gen3 x4 provides transfer speeds of up to 32Gb/s, while the other supports PCIe Gen3 x2 & SATA3 6Gb/s operation.
Good protection of the M.2 SSD is important for longevity and stability. ASRock provides a comprehensive M.2 shielding solution on the B450 platform that keeps SSDs running at low temperatures.

AMD StoreMI
A powerful tool that combines the speed of your SSD with the capacity of your hard drive into a single, fast, and easy-to-manage disk, AMD StoreMI technology "combines" these two types of storage into a single disk and automatically transfers the data you access most to the SSD, so you get the best of both worlds.

I have had the motherboard for 4 years now and it is excellent. It maintains its clock speed for the RAM at 3200MHz without any issues. It takes advantage of the speed of all the disks I have to their maximum capacity. I also use the smart access memory feature of AMD in combination with my AMD graphics card. Another good thing about it is that it has a large number of USB ports compared to other motherboards in its category.
THE MOTHERBOARD HAS NEVER LET ME DOWN.
Even during quarantine, I constantly game in the morning and mine in the evening, and the PC never shuts down.
Only once did it give me trouble when I installed a second M.2 disk and it couldn't recognize it. However, with a simple Google search, I managed to find the solution.
Even today, the motherboard is worth it, especially for the price of 90 eurosTranslated from Greek ·- Number of ports

Did you find this review helpful?Well, for those who ask if it will work with Ryzen 5600G or generally with 5000 series, yes it will work without bios updates because enough years have passed and now the motherboards already support it with the bios update. I had the same problem and I was worried that it wouldn't work with the 5600G I bought, but no, it opened normally and already had the 3.70 bios update from asrock that supports the 4000, 5000 series processors

Did you find this review helpful?Only 1 comment.. Since I did a BIOS Update and upgraded from Ryzen 5 2400G to Ryzen 5 5600x for some reason Polychrome Sync doesn't work.. If someone can suggest a solution, I would be very happy to hear it..!

Did you find this review helpful?It is incompatible with many nvme m.2 pcie3 and pcie4 drives and has only 2 ports. I have 2 Kingston NV2 1TB, Samsung 980 Pro NVMe 500GB, and Kioxia Exceria G2 1TB drives that are not recognized at all in the BIOS, Windows, or boot menu.
Apart from that, it is a decent motherboard.

Did you find this review helpful?Everything is going smoothly, very good motherboard for compatibility with a 5500/5600 and in general, the fifth generation is excellent. I haven't had any problems so far and I hope I won't encounter any in general. It is generally very beautiful, especially in the transparent case it came in. The RGB is decent, personally I don't want anything else. It doesn't have too many crazy features, but it is satisfactory.

Did you find this review helpful?The Motherboard is undeniably beautiful and has plenty of ports. It has a nice design. It has m.2 ports and the price is very good.
Now, what I didn't like was its placement. I got very tired trying to align the screw holes with the case's standoffs and that's because for some reason the io shield was obstructing something. When I didn't put it, all the holes matched the screws perfectly. After a lot of frustration and many attempts, I thought of removing a cushion-like thing that is glued to the aluminum from the io shield. So, with less difficulty, 8 out of the 9 screws went in. Finally, I have a very comfortable case, the Be Quiet Pure Base 500, and I have comfortably installed 3 Msi motherboards in it so far.
I believe I helped anyone who is considering getting this motherboard.Translated from Greek ·- Number of ports

Did you find this review helpful?We used it in one of our builds, which you can see here: https://youtu.be/wGUKlDr_P-E
It is very beautiful, but be careful, its covers are silver and not white as they appear in some photos. The print digital camo that the board has is also present on the IO shield, which makes it stand out!
Statistically, few users upgrade to the same platform, so we don't believe it's worth spending an extra 50 euros for its newer sibling with the intention of upgrading in the future. The processors it supports are very powerful, and with a corresponding graphics card, the system will be able to play games for several years.
The software for the RGB is very bad, hence one minus star.

Did you find this review helpful?With Ryzen 7 2700x, RX 580, dual 8GB 3200GHz RAM, and NVMe Kingston A2000 boot drive, I had no issues. It runs smoothly and is reliable and beautiful. For now, unless you're thinking about 4K-8K gaming with the latest generation graphics cards, you won't find any bottleneck

Did you find this review helpful?The motherboard is the best and most reliable for Ryzen processors, simply because with a bios update it supports up to Ryzen 9 39xx, which says a lot.
In terms of connectivity, the motherboard has everything, with plenty of ports, and its temperatures are great!To my friend Panagiotis_C_ and anyone else who has an issue with RGB, I would suggest doing a Bios update first. I have version 2.63B and I have no issues with polychrome or any other problems with this specific motherboard.
Also, it is not possible to rate a motherboard based on whether the RGB works correctly or not. You buy a motherboard, not a disco ball, guys!Translated from Greek ·- Number of ports

Did you find this review helpful?Yes, okay beautiful. After 3 days of use, at some point I tried to open polychrome and suddenly the LEDs on the IO cover turned off by themselves and didn't turn on again even with clear CMOS. The company's program is unbearable...
