Review: ASUS ROG Strix B450-F Gaming II AMD AM4 - This is a really good motherboard for the price with a lot of really amazing features that will surprise you from a motherboard in this price range. . AM4 socket: Ready for 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen processors . Robust power solution: 8+4 discrete MOS with high-quality alloy chokes and durable capacitors . Gaming-optimized connectivity: Dual M.2, USB 3.2 Gen 2, plus HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.2 output support . Smooth networking: M.2 socket with E-key and Intel Gigabit Ethernet with ASUS LANGuard . Intuitive software: Easy-to-use UEFI BIOS and ASUS AI Networking make it easy to configure gaming builds . DIY-friendly design: Includes pre-mounted I/O shield, BIOS FlashBack, Q-LEDs and SafeSlot . Unmatched personalization: ASUS-exclusive Aura Sync RGB lighting, including Aura RGB headers and . . . . .Addressable RGB header . Industry-leading gaming audio: AI Noise-Cancelling Microphone, SupremeFX S1220A codec, and Sonic Studio III for immersive sound. The motherboard has a nice weight to it and it has a full I/O shroud to save all the hassle of those flimsy I/O shields. It has a USB Bios flash button (Only flash the BIOS as a last resort as it generally is not worth the risk of bricking the motherboard) with an indicator light to shows completion and also an easy recovery option for failed or corrupted bios updates. It has well-placed heat sinks for excellent heat distribution and it not only has twin M.2 slots (one of which has its own heatsink) it also has an M.2 wireless card slot which is handy. With multiple RGB headers and case fan headers, this makes the board a really good board for the price. I will be adding my processor (AMD 5 3600) and ram (Corsair Vengeance 4 X 8GB) and (EVGA GeForce GTX 1660 SC ULTRA) to the board along with (at the moment ) one M.2 drive (500GB) and 0nce std SSD (240GB) but I will be upgrading them later. (when I can afford to). All in all, this is looking to be a great board but I will update this in a couple of months to advise how things have gone. This board is well worth the current asking price of £99 in my opinion.

It turned out to be the processor, as the ram controller is on the chip - contacted AMD they exchanged for a new processor under warranty and has worked without issue since.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great motherboard for 5600X, disappointing website
*by K***L on 9 February 2021*

I bought this specific version 2 motherboard as I knew the 5600X CPU I wanted to install would require a BIOS update. However despite repeatedly trying to flash the BIOS via several USBs and almost pulling my hair out, it wouldn't flash. The issue was that Asus's website doesn't give you a link to the V2 BIOS page, only providing a link to the V1 BIOS, which won't work when trying to flash the board. I was ready to RMA this drive before realising this might be the issue and finding the V2 BIOS via a google link. After flashing the BIOS, the board has been fantastic and offers excellent value for money for a board compataible with a 5600X CPU. It does everything I would want it to do and has great features, including USB 3.0 headers for my case. I would highly recommend it. Knocking off one star due to the BIOS issues.
