Its a motherboard and it does it's job, but read.
I thought it had an input type c to connect it to the case, but it doesn't, it only has its own type c.You should open the website and see the blueprint of the motherboard to see what to get in advance.I bought a type c input pcie for my case to connect it to the motherboard.I also got a fan hub.Everything else was spot on.

2 veces defectuosa.
La primera que me enviaron no funcionó, pedí el reemplazo y tampoco funcionó. Muy mala experiencia más de un mes tratando de armar la pc.

Great AMD motherboard.
Great older AMD mb mb was easy to work with and it didn't take me long to set up and install. Flashed bios then installed everything in case. I did have to add a pcie network card but that was nothing.

Worked perfectly
Really solid board. Had some trouble getting it set up because the instructions are a little vague at some points but then again I've never seen a motherboard that was too easy. Works perfectly and has plenty of space to work with. Big fan of having two M.2 slots and I'm planning to upgrade my storage because of it. Overall would definitely recommend.

I love this motherboard
I absolutely love this board. It gives you all of the important top-tier cutting edge features and really none of the frills that you don't need. I am running this with a 7800X3D, 64gb of 6000mhz DDR5, and a PCI-E 5.0 SSD and it really delivers. The board has no problem running the RAM at the specified speed using the EXPO profile and the SSD runs blistering fast, to the tune of 10,000mbps sustained read and write. The board looks good to. I would buy it again for certain.If I had one complaint, it would be how long the board takes to POST when you are using an EXPO memory profile. It takes 30-45 seconds sitting on the RAM test light before moving on to complete the POST which can seem like forever if you are in a hurry to complete a reboot for a driver update or something.

Working as expected.
Coming from some other brand's horrid coil whine. (You will find which brand with searching B650+coil whine) Some say this is normal these days due to increased power consumption and variable driving voltage, etc etc. Nope, all lies! You should not hear coil whine when the system is idle!!And no, this board wasn't plagued by those 'bad' coils at all. As attached, it may not be perfect example, the OCCT stress fails to even instigate any coil noise from CPU side at all. And yes, my CPU is not a power hungry monster but the previous Gigabyte B650 was extremely noisy with coil whine.So, yes, if you're looking for a budget B650, definitely head into ASUS TUF although it is not exactly cheaper than any mATX boards. Yet, this board isn't more expensive than those 'high-end' gaming lineup.Here are some pros and cons.Pros:1. Now TUF is also providing the AIO PWM signal! TUF B560 didn't have it. But this newer generation seems to have the 4 pin slot for AIO.2. The CPU_OPT is still tied with the main CPU_FAN. Good for twin tower air cooling set up.3. Whopping 3 ARGB (5V 3pin) slots, still support 12V slots! It can be a budget, but we can still make it shine!4. XMP up to 6000 was no problem!5. VRM heatsink has stepping shape. I've installed a Thermalright Peerless Assassin (RGB variant) but it could hold even larger, i.e. Noctua DH-15, air cooler. But then again, I was able to put my hand into over the VRM heatsink to connect the CPU power cables!cons.1. It could be pros but half of USB 3.0 slots are C-type and they aren't all Thunderbolt. But these days, those PD charging cables are everywhere.2. The WiFi is not Intel, it is rather MediaTek MT7921 WiFi 6 (not E) I'm fine with not being 6E since 6E routers are expensive as heck anyway. But being MT7921 means Windows cannot automatically detect the WiFi card even after installation. You have to prepare a WiFi/Bluetooth driver separately. Also, considering what I've been through with Asus gaming laptops, it could cause some connectivity issue if you install older driver, didn't happen to me yet.3. Second PCI-E x16 slot becomes useless if you install 3 slot GPU, as seen in the picture. So, technically, the only expansion slot you can use, if you have a high-end gaming GPU, is the only tiny PCI x1 port. This is because the main PCI-E x16 slot is not located at the top slot.Yes, it is a bit budget side board with a few limitations. But it does its job fine. That other TUF I've mentioned was Intel B560 mATX and it is running fine under 24/7 running some simulation task since 2021 January. I should have went to TUF at the first.
