This board has worked perfectly for a budget Ryzen 5 5600GT build. The board arrived in brand-new condition (Some reviews expressed otherwise) and worked the first time without any issues. The VRM's are very high quality and have no problem with thermals because of the large heatsink. The wifi is very fast and I had no issues installing all the necessary drivers needed for this new build. The BIOS is probably my favorite part of this board. I have never used a gigabyte motherboard before (Always ASUS or MSI in the past) but this is making me reconsider those choices. It is so much easier to adjust the fan curves and update the bios on this board compared to the competition it makes my head spin. You can even save fan curves so they won't just vanish when you update BIOS which is something I've never had the luxury of doing on MSI boards. The fan stop feature is also another no-brainer feature that MSI and ASUS just don't seem to have on the boards I've used for some reason. It allows you to make a fan completely stop under a certain temperature even if it isn't a zero RPM fan which is AMAZING. I strongly recommend this board!

Just finished building my new PC build (my third PC I built so far), it worked right out of the box with the coming with the latest BIOS update that supports my new CPU: Ryzen 7 5700g. I was almost afraid I would have to use my old 3200g from my previous build to flash the BIOS, but no, it booted without any problems. Just got done installing Windows 11 on a 500 GB m.2 SSD, along with all driver updates and everything so far is running smoothly. Re-using my 32 GB of G.SKILL RAM (only 2400mhz, will upgrade or OC later), my old 1660 Super GPU will be put in tomorrow after I dust it off and the old PC will be off to the garage. The B550M is a great motherboard and very affordable. It took me quite a long time to finally find a good mATX board to go with my Ryzen 7 5700g and this is that board. Highly recommended for those of us like me needing a budget friendly workstation (3ds Max, Mudbox, Wondershare Filmora, Photoshop, Unity, Cura (3d prints)) and great for some modern gaming too!

I've never been to finicky with the visual presentation of my board, whether it be more stylish and sleek or conventional and industrial looking. Performance and ease of use are above all else. This board succeeds with the former, but can be lackluster with some of the latter.Physical installation was a breeze, but the same cannot be said about Gigabyte's proprietary software application. While the BIOS is inoffensive and easy to use, the Control Center app is an absolute nightmare. GCC tries at every opportunity to override every other first-party software dedicated to hardware control. I removed Gigabyte Fusion entirely because custom color selection from the software wasn't remotely accurate to what displayed on hardware ARGB. Even after removing everything related to Fusion in my system registry, just running GCC in the background caused hardware ARGB to flicker, and would break my PWM settings even though I don't have any other fan control software installed. I eventually just disabled GCC altogether, and even still, the Update Service will sometimes self-launch in the background randomly and inconsistently upon startup every now and then.The real pain, however, was the onboard wireless adapter. Every single component got the necessary firmware and drivers they required via LAN upon my first boot...EXCEPT the wireless adapter. I tried over and over to manually install the latest drivers listed on Gigabyte's own website, and it still would not function. It took reinstalling a wireless card for Windows to even bother retrieving the driver automatically. The adapter was now functional, but wouldn't detect 5G networks. It took hours of browsing tech forums before being directed to an off-site forum hosting Realtek drivers, then trial-and-error through downloading and attempting to manually install a few compressed packages from there before finally getting the device manager to recognize one of them and successfully install it.My last gripe would be the front-panel USB 3.0 hub location. I have no idea why Gigabyte thought it'd be great placing it right where most people would install their card in the lower PCIE port to give their storage devices some breathing room. All PC cases I've owned had beefy 3.0 plugs that need additional space lest you bend and damage either the pins, board or cable. Thankfully I'm not entirely dependent on having the front panel USB ports, but it would be nice to have them working for my leisure.All that being said, I can't complain too much or really dissuade anybody from getting this board. So as long as you avoid GCC like the plague and configure your preferred performance settings in the BIOS, it gets the job done. CPU and air cooler are snug and firmly sit, RAM runs well, all my temps are read correctly and my SSD has room to breathe. I only wish Gigabyte tech support was more helpful and informative than some obscure tech forum sites.

I love this motherboard, it was quite easy to connect everything, as long as you got the right power supply unit. I think this product is worth the money, as I have seen slightly faster speeds on my gaming and overall computer use, and it’s at a good price, plus it comes with two m.2 ssd slots, which is great for storage!
