Please Note:There will undoubtedly be renewed interest in B550 motherboards with the launch of AMD'sRyzen 5 5600X3DCPU. And with good reason; the 5600X3D, paired with an AM4 motherboard, is a potent combo for gaming and other tasks. But withRyzen 7000and its AM5 socket now the curr...

We've seen slightly cheaper versions on sale, but this one at least does have proper DDR5 memory, making the motherboard at least nominally upgradeable to a more modern spec. It does make a bit of an odd combo with the Core i5 here, though for straightforward gaming performance, it ...
