- Decent price, about $75 when I bought it.
- Good build quality. I didn't have any issues with it when assembling the PC.
- Built-in memory profiles. I can't speak for all the possible memory types out there, but I paired it with the reasonably-priced Patriot Viper 4 Series Extreme Performance DDR4 16GB (2 X 8GB) 3200MHz Kit (PC4-25600) and I didn't have to do anything special or create custom settings. I selected the first of the built-in enhanced profiles and restarted the system; the next time I went into the BIOS the memory was running at the rated speed.
- BIOS and on-board HDMI port worked great with the AMD Ryzen 5 3400G chip with integrated Vega graphics. No special updating necessary on the version of the board I got. It was all plug-and-play except for switching to the first enhanced memory profile.
Cons:
- One of my older mobos can sort of update the BIOS itself (from within the BIOS UI you can tell it to update and if it has network connectivity, it can do it on its own). With this one I had to use the utility app in Windows to download it. Not much of a con, but after the other board's convenience I had thought more would have the same features.
- If you need a lot of expansion capacity, you will want a different board. This has two memory banks and not many expansion slots; understandable because of the micro-ATX format, but just something to be aware of.
I thought it was a very good board overall. Plenty of power and features for the budget PC I built around it. The only quirk was that I had to buy a splitter cable for the fans. The mobo has a CPU fan connector and one other fan connector. I needed the splitter since the case had two fans.
I got all my parts in and started installing everything, it all went in nice and smoothly. It has an m.2 slot, so I will get a m.2 memory card later on for the O.S. and a few other programs. Right now I'm using an HDD that was borrowed from another computer, which hooked right up with the SATA cable that was included with the motherboard (comes with 2 actually, 1 normal straight cable, and 1 with a 90° angle).
The only problem I ran into was with the I/O shield, when I lined it up as I was installing it, it all looked good so I screwed the motherboard down and everything looked lined up & good. But after getting it all together, I find that one of the tabs on the shield was lodged into the HDMI port. I pulled it out and bent it over, there was no way i was going to fight the little screws on the top row of the board again without a magnetic tip screwdriver, lol.
I got it all together & hooked up and visually inspected everything, (freaking out a little because I just know I forgot something or did something wrong, being my first build) I flipped the power switch, hit the power button and BOOM...I've got power.
Went into BIOS menu, slot different than the Dell & HP BIOS's that I was used to, lol. It has options to overclock your CPU & RAM, I haven't tried it yet but I do intend on boosting my memory up some. It also displays your CPU temperature, which I wasn't used to.
Overall, if you are buying a b450m board on a budget, you cant go wrong with this motherboard. If not on a budget, I would of got the MSI Gaming Plus...maybe in the future. I recommend the MSI B450M Pro-M2 MAX motherboard.

My pc had Ryzen 5 3400g with 16gb ram and for 2 day it worked well but suddenly it started showing problem in ram and the next day in cpu.
Really disappointed with the product.
I will not suggest MSI motherboards for your build because when I searched about the problem most users who shared this problem was regarding msi motherboards.
Debated getting a cheaper A320 motherboard, but was worried about compatibility issues. Therefore opted for this. Worked right out of the box.
