MSI MPG B550 GAMING PLUS
AM4, AMD B550, ATX
The board is conspicuously kept in black, so it disappears into the background of the case. UserBenchmark attests the board a higher speed than 75% of all other boards with the same configuration. It has two ARGB connectors and only one 4Pin RGB connector. BIOS flashback and the USB-C front connector are also very good. The only problem I had was with the XMP detection of the RAM, but that was quickly taken care of. For the money one of the best B550 motherboards currently on the market. The board has 4 layers. If you want a board with 6 layers, go for the Tomahawk.

It bothered me from the beginning that not even the graphics card ran without a bios update. The software for the RGB control is overloaded in my opinion. I also miss the connection help for IO connections on the board, which is always included with Gigabyte, for example. Otherwise, good board for the price.
The package is dirty. It looks like it was taken straight from the showcase.
The main concerning thing is that there is no seal or anything like that to guarantee that no one has opened the motherboard package or used it!

Good choice for this price range, msi has also very good bios. I used it for an apu office setup.
