  • Hi guys,
    If you're looking for a B550 motherboard then the B550-A is an excellent choice. Not only does it come in at a reasonable price, but it looks great and is easy to use.
    Today we're going to be unboxing, setting up, installing, updating the BIOS and all that jazz.
    Purchased from Box.co.uk who are an excellent supplier of PC hardware whom I have been shopping with for a couple of years.

      Hi, I think it works well with the silver, but I would have preferred more white on the board to truly say it fits in really well with a white build. This is mostly due to the PCB being black. The Asus Prime boards probably work best with a white build.

However, when I turn it on cpu fans run for a second and stop and more importantly monitor, keyboard and mouse are not recognized at all. Monitor flashes for a bit indicating HDMI connection and goes blank while mouse and keyboard dont flash at all. I went with the latest as suggested, but it's a pretty new version - 2023. Should I try an older one? Any ideas how to fix all this?

    • @WayneWebbFilms

      I don't have any numbers for temps and I'm unable to obtain because this went into a build that I sold on, but they should be fairly decent even with the 5800x.
      If you're planning on heavily OCing then going for a higher tier board would be advisable but using stock or pbo with decent case airflow and I don't think you'll have any problems.

      I think it will work, but it may not run at 3600. Ram support is a whole heap better nowadays compared with the 1st gen. The QVL is only of ram they have tested and works. I don't believe they list it if it runs at say 3466, could be wrong. You could try pcpartpicker and see if it comes up. As with anything, nothing is guaranteed but it's up to you of course.

    I'm someone looking around at b550 motherboards for a first build.
    Why does Asus Tuf & Strix line-ups on pcpartpicker has those notes? Such as USB 3.1 Gen 2 to 3.2 Gen 2 header adapters being required and is that a major issue? I plan to put a motherboard in O11 Air Mini or Meshify 2 Compact.

    • @WayneWebbFilms
      @WayneWebbFilms  Před 2 lety

      This one in particular doesn't have a USB C header for your case front panel, but does have it on the IO shield (back of the motherboard). I wouldn't pay too much attention to PCPP. Btw, the Lian Li Mini Air is amazing and I highly recommend it.

      I had the same question with a B550i motherboard and 6x Arctic ARGB fans I have just done a build in and...there was no issue at all and mine were daisy chained ie without a hub. The power, as it were, comes from the hub and that will be powered by SATA. The lighting is just that, lighting, so your header will be absolutely fine.

      Is your hdmi/dp cable fully in?
      Are the cables plugged into the GPU and not motherboard?

      It should mount without any real pressure. Could be a couple of things. 1) make sure the pcie tab is fully open. 2) your mounting bracket for the card might be coming in contact with the pcie cover below the GPU. Maybe remove it, install your GPU and then put it back carefully before screwing the GPU in place.

My advice would be to download the drivers on another PC or mobile phone, transfer them across and you should then be fine. Hope this makes sense.
