  • Great, basic board.
Style: MSI B550-A PRO ProSeries Motherboard
This is a great, basic board. After a frustrating few days trying to get an ASRock Rack server board to even post, this dropped in like a breath of fresh air. Intuitive BIOS, awesome live tech support, etc. I plan to use MSI on my next build too.

  • BIOS version info on new mobo's should be included in the box!
Style: MSI B550-A PRO ProSeries Motherboard
I was going to update an MSI B450 mobo and put a 5800x in it but decided to upgrade to this B550 A-Pro. I figured since it's Gen 4 and has another M.2 slot it would be great. I was thinking it might need an update right out of the box for the 5800x, but really wasn't expecting the frustration ahead. All done with install, I pushed the power button and got the solid white cpu debug lite, and was locked out of even the bios screen. All fans spun, but no post, or video out to monitor. Then tried reseating ram, cpu, checking board power connectors, all w/no luck. Then researched and completed a no cpu bios flasback with latest bios. Thumbdrive flashed for a while then stopped, so I thought I licked it. Then I saw that it wasn't going to shut down for restart on it's own when it should have done so, so I forced shutdown. Long story short...after retrying posts unsuccessfully many times after bios flashing I had a 2700x on hand to install. No cpu debug now, but a vga one!!! Grrrrr..........I solved it by checking and reseating the power leads for the gpu, and it finally posted. Bios info confirmed the flash I did 4 hrs ago took, and was now up to date, but never posted until I put in the older cpu. Now...hear this M.S.I., both the B550 mobo and 5800x released at about the same time, in fact, about 6 mo. apart, so I shouldn't be having this issue. I then resolved to reinstall the 5800x on the chance of it working now, after the bios had got a full load-in and finalization. It did, thank God, 'cause if it hadn't it would've been disassembled and put right back in the box for RMA, despite the extra work and hassle. I've put together about 25 pc's but t his turned into THE MOST frustrating build for me, eating 12 hours of my day for the full build, when normal may be 4-6 hrs. It's been a few days and it's run perfectly fine since that mess, but I'll think twice about ordering another MSI mobo. Update 11-14-2024 Although I only gave 4 out of 5 rating at first, I would bump it up to a 4.75 if I could. Like many have said in reviews here, update the bios! The old BIOS that it shipped with really riled me up at the time, and luckily I had an old 2700x to get it to post before installing the 5800x. But I must say that after I got it running, finished set up and tweaked the settings, I haven't had any trouble at all. No crashes to speak of, and it's run beautifully. BIOS updates go smoothly and it now rocks a 5800x3d with the original 7900 XT gpu. It's turned out great, and I even went with another MSI mobo, a B650 Tomahawk Wi Fi. I'm happy with it now, but it also had it's issues, to say the least...like almost 2 minute post times. Google it. Most problems have smoothed out with BIOS updates now, but that's a whole other story in itself. ... show more

  • Great ATX Motherboard for Performance System
Style: MSI B550-A PRO ProSeries Motherboard
The motherboard was easy to install in my existing system case upgrading the processor, memory, and dGPU. Installed a Ryzen 9 5900, 64GB DDR4-3200, 1TB M.2 2080 PCIe 4x4 SSD, and an RTX 4070 in one system. The other system was a Ryzen 9 3900, 32GB DDR4-3200, 512GB M.2 2080 PCIe3x4 SSD, and an RTX 4070. There's a heat-spreader for the M.2! It requires some patience on first boot since the FW seems to "think" a long time without writing to the screen, but it eventually came to the BIOS splash screen. I did update the BIOS to the latest version right away since the shipping version was outdated (may have been fine but why take chances). The BIOS update procedure is simple--just download, unzip to a connected drive, boot to the UEFI BIOS, go to update BIOS mode, reboot, and point to the BIOS file on the connected drive. The update process will finish up and the system will reboot. I did have to set the memory speed to the profile to support its speed--it did not automatically choose the correct JDEC/XMP profile for 1600MHz/3200MT/s. After installing Windows 11 Pro and my application/utility suites, the system has been stable through some very heavy use: transcoding videos with CPU and GPU using Handbrake, creating/editing videos using DaVinci Resolve, editing photos with Lightroom/ACR/Photoshop, and running a range of development and productivity applications. CPU-z confirms that PCIe is running at Gen4 speeds, and the memory is running at the correct profile/speed. In all, the motherboard is a good value for the performance and stability that it delivers. ... show more
