Decent board for the price. Used in a old build with a 5800x 7800xt no issues at all.

I had a refurbished b450 version of this board and loved it. The bios flash button is a very nice feature to have. The only downside is no built in Bluetooth or wifi. Still a great buy for anyone who is fine with sticking with AM4 or is doing a build on a budget.

This paired with a 5700x3d and cheap DDR4 makes this a dream budget gaming platform that easily keeps up with AM5 for a big chunk of change less

I love the AM4 platform. I have two systems, and don't plan on upgrading for a long time.

So for someone like myself still rocking a Zen 3600 / 2070 Super but does plan on getting a Zen 5700X3D in 3-4 months and depending on GPU prices a 4070 Super or 5070, I should go ahead and get this MOBO right now?

I have a AORUS B450 Gigabyte now, does what I need, gaming and basic computing

I'm still on the B450 Tomahawk Max from 2020. Thought about going to AM5 but after some research I just don't see the value at this point so I think will just update the CPU and Video Card for now.

Ditto, MSI B450 Tomahawk + R5 3600 + RTX 3070. setup is still okay for most 1440p gaming

A bit disappointed by the small amount of USB ports on the back. Seems like there's only 5, and only 3 of them are USB 3.0.
I expected more from an ATX sized mobo.

Only if you need a new mobo, otherwise I'd skip the extra expense.

It has been on sale in combos pretty recently, so it's probably not the last sale on it
