Does it support Ryzen 5000 processors?

Yes. B550 boards support Ryzen 5000 series CPUs, though older stock may need a BIOS update first. BIOS FlashBack lets you update without a CPU installed.

Is there onboard Wi-Fi?

No. The board has 2.5Gb Ethernet only, so you need a Wi-Fi card or USB adapter for wireless.

How many M.2 drives can I install?

Two. The top M.2 slot runs at PCIe 4.0 with a Ryzen 5000 or 3000 CPU; the second slot is PCIe 3.0.

Does it fit in a micro-ATX case?

No. It is a full ATX board, so you need an ATX or larger case.

Can I use PCIe 4.0 graphics cards and SSDs?

Yes, on the main x16 slot and the primary M.2 slot, provided you pair it with a PCIe 4.0-capable Ryzen CPU.

Our take on the Asus tuf gaming b550-plus socket am4 moederbord

The Asus TUF Gaming B550-Plus is an ATX motherboard for AMD's AM4 socket, built around the B550 chipset. It targets Ryzen 3000 and 5000 CPUs and pairs a 12+2 DrMOS power stage with large VRM heatsinks, so it holds up with higher-core chips. It has PCIe 4.0 on the main x16 slot and one M.2 slot, 2.5Gb Ethernet, and a TUF look with Aura lighting. Against cheaper B550 boards it trades a little cost for sturdier power delivery and cooling; against X570 it gives up extra PCIe 4.0 lanes and chipset cooling.
