- Does it support Ryzen 5000 processors?
- Yes. It supports AMD Ryzen 5000, 3000 and older AM4 chips, though a BIOS update may be needed for some older stock boards.
- How many M.2 drives can I install?
- Two M.2 drives, both supporting PCIe 4.0, in 2242 and 2280 lengths. One slot is wired to the CPU and one to the chipset.
- Is there built-in Wi-Fi?
- Yes. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are integrated, along with a 2.5Gbit/s Ethernet port, so no add-in card is needed.
- Can I use DDR5 memory?
- No. The board takes DDR4 only, across four slots up to 128GB.
- Does it have a front USB-C header?
- Yes. There is a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C header for a case front panel, plus a Type-C port on the rear I/O.
- Is it worth it over a B550 board?
- If you want more PCIe 4.0 lanes, extra M.2 and SATA ports and a fanless chipset, yes. A B550 board covers most builds for less.
