Love that you didn't rag on this board. Many "Reviewers" tend to nitpick low to mid end hardware, when in honesty the days of $450 motherboards for most consumers are long behind us. You can be a gamer, streamer, whatever as long as the board supports the CPU you want, and has the connectors you require you are good to go with even cheaper models. Overclocking, at least in this generation is basically dead as both Ryzen and Nvidia are very well tuned out of the box, and clock speed in general isn't nearly as important as core count and multi threading workloads. Solid board, if ur looking to save buck defo get this one.

@@Reviewing_Playing_and_More_RPM yeah, they could fix this really easily, and being nicer with their customer by adding 1 more sys fan... or at least including the splitter cable in the box. I got really upset to this simple issues
Yeah I was surprised with the 1 Sys_Fan Header as well, I'd read the specs and it said 2, but they included the CPU Fan Header as part of the 2, very misleading...ordered a 3 way fan splitter to fix it, simple and easy fix's for them but costly for me for sure...I'll be more careful in the future though...it is frustrating...take care...

It's to the right of the CPU and behind the Mic, Sound and Speaker it's very near the Sys_Fan Header...it just says LED Header though, but it's listed as an RGB Header...no ARGB Header though...I'm planning to test and if it works do a video on how to activate ARGB on this board though, using a converter...Thanks...
I'll need more to answer your question, as the cables come from the computer case that go into the MB, so if you have a USB cable plugged into the MB, then there is no other end as it's attached to the computer case...give me more info if you meant something else...Thanks...
Guessing you mean which GPU, it can run most modern GPU's, I used a GTX 1660TI, and even the Sapphire RX 5700 XT on it and it worked great, so choice is yours...
Will it support the AMD Ryzen 5 3600? The price on this mobo just dropped, and I wanted to make sure. Also, is there a reason it dropped? It’s now $70, without a sale going on, so I don’t know if there’s anything wrong with it? Also, I’m new to pc building, so sorry if this is a strange question, but does it support a GeForce gtx 1650 super? Sorry this is so long, but I just want to make sure. Can it support or connect to a m.2 ssd chip?
Yes it will support the Ryzen 5 3600, price for this MB is usually low as it only has 1 Fan Header, and 1 CPU Header, and it's more of a low end budget MB so if you can get it at a good price and that works for your build then it's gtg...You can use current GPU's including the GTX 1650 Super, the price also reflects the lact of PCIe slots and ability to add Adapters, you can add 1 but with the GPU in place it covers the PCIe slot so it can't be used...it does also have support for M.2 SSD...Thanks...
Thanks for the review sir. I want to buy this motherboard and ADM Ryzen 3 3200g. my question is can I buy an extra fan to make my CPU cooler? is there any room for that?
No WiFi unfortunately and it only has 1 fan header just so you know, but I still like it and it fit my needs, it's likely it'll be my test system for projects...I bought a 3 way Fan Splitter and was able to hook up 3 fans no problems...

Great review! i guess we cant sync thru Mobo (rgb fusion app) the argb fans since it doesnt have RGB header. So the only way to control the lightnings of the fan is thru remote that comes with the fans. did i get it right or other way around? will appreciate the reply. hehe
Great video! ⚡️ B450's have been hard to come by recently. Waiting for my Msi B450 gaming plus max to start my budget build. Thanks for the detailed overview!
Yeah that's partly why I got this one, but it has what I'll need for now...alot of PC parts are hard to get now or overpriced...take care man...Thanks...
Don't know whether Ryzen 5 3500 is available all over the world or not, still taking into consideration of India, we have Ryzen 5 3500 with 6C/6T which is a fully functioning desktop processor. And talking about the question i asked, is every B450 motherboards are compatible with 3rd Gen Ryzen processors or it may require a Bios update !
It is, but there is only 1 Fan Header and 1 CPU Header, in case that makes a difference, a good choice would be a B550 so you can be ready for future upgrades...I'm using this MB with a Ryzen 3 3100 and it works great...I use a 3 way fan splitter...there's no ARGB though as well...
No that's a feature to indicate the part of the motherboard where they protect the sound from any distortion, hissing and pop sounds, the light just indicates where it's at...Thanks...
Do you mean up to the 4000 series, if so then yes but it will require a BIOS update to do so...as for GPU it'll take all current GPU's but not sure yet on the new Ampere GPU's that are yet to be out so can't say for sure yet...Thanks...
Hi there, I'm planning my first PC build and was deciding either this motherboard or another MSI board. Do you think that if I buy one of these today the BIOS version would be compatible with a Ryzen 5 4600G? Thanks.
It only has 1 Fan Header, so you'll need a Fan splitter, I had a 3 way fan splitter that I used...as I'm using 3 fans in total but to use 4 in total you might need a Fan Hub...
Depends on your fans, most fans use Addressable RGB, but this budget MB only has an RGB Header no ARGB Header, so you'll need a adapter, I did a video on the one I used called the Deepcool Converter, it will work with this MB, here is the link in case you want to have a look at it, hope it helps: th-cam.com/video/sK4PGOZ0EGA/w-d-xo.html
@@KennyJamesRX8 So just had a look at this product, best I can see is it uses RGB if so there is an RGB Header on the MB that you can use, basically it works like this, a 3 Pin 5V uses an Addressable RGB Header, if it's a 4 Pin 12V then it uses a RGB Header, this MB has a RGB Header but no ARGB Header, so if yours has the 4 Pin 12V then your gtg with the RGB Header on this MB, just plug it in and use either the controller that comes with these fans, or the MB Software to control the RGB...
@@KennyJamesRX8 It's directly behind where the Mic and speaker are on the MB, it's poorly labelled though, so check your MB Manual for which direction to place it on...specifically lining up the Arrow on the RGB Cable to the 12V pin on the RGB Header...
I still use some of my older Radeon, I update it from the AMD.com site, getting just the video drivers...Once I have the initial drivers installed then I use the new AMD GPU Software...hope that helps...Thanks...
Yes, just after the TPM is a Com port, then the USB and USB 3.0 not sure what controller your using but if it's USB then it'll be good. Otherwise if it's an actual RGB cable there are two types, 3 Pin 5V ARGB Header or 4 Pin 12V RGB Header.
@@Reviewing_Playing_and_More_RPM thank you so much for your response. It's actually more complicated than I thought. I have nzxt aer2 fans with a lianli controller. doesn't seem like they're compatible. looks like I'll have to buy a nzxt controller.
Yes, I used a PCIe adapter to enable Type C on the case so needed to use a WiFi Dongle but if you don't need that then a WiFi Adapter will work no problem...
Yes it came with all the screws, stand offs, twist ties and other typical items that a MB comes with. If I didn't show that I must have forgotten sorry about that.
You can just that you need ARGB in most instances so you'd need a RGB Converter to make it work...Deepcool has one I did a video on that explains how it works...
Yes it can work with the Ryzen 5 3000 series and eventually with a BIOS update 4000 series CPU's...It has worked for me for gaming so shouldn't be any issue's, but if I have any I'll do an update to talk about it...Thanks...
Hey there! I was wondering if this motherboard would be compatible with the Corsair Spec Delta Case because the previous motherboard that I bought (MSI B450M Pro-M2 Max) did not have a rgb header so I am returning this and looking for a new budget alternative.
It has a RGB Header but not a ARGB Header, so as long as it uses the normal RGB Header it'll work...keep in mind you only have 1 CPU Fan Header and only 1 Sys_Fan Header, so might need a fan splitter or fan hub...but it'll work with that case though...Thanks...
Wait so youre telling me that my motherboard doesnt have 2 system fan headers???? ive been looking for the other one. Or am i bind? its my first build so i dt know much about the motherboard crap
This MB the B450M DS3H has 1 Sys_Fan Header, and 1 CPU Fan Header, I used a Fan Splitter to add 3 more...but nope if you have this MB that's all it has...
Im currently building a gaming pc with this motherboard. Only problem i’ve had is the limited space between my RX 570 Graphics Card (which takes up 2 slots) and bottom pci-e slot. If you were to take up both pci-e slots it would block a lot of air flow. I also wanted to install a wifi pci-e adapter with a built-in heatsink but it wont fit because the F-Audio cable is in the way. So i was forced to go with a cheaper, thinner wifi adapter which isnt a big deal for me but i thought people reading this might wanna know. It does however have just enough room for an Elgato HD60 capture card (I could just remove the f-audio cable and no problem). I also would’ve liked ARGB but i found a way around that. Other than that, this mother board is pretty good for the price. Good value and alright looking.
It is lacking things for sure, but that's why it's priced the way it is, it's a budget MB but does work for similar like builds...I just did a video with it for later today, and ran into the same issue's, I used a USB Dongle for WiFi (AC 1200) which works really well, and still leaves me room for one adapter...I do think Airflow will depend a lot on case and how fans are used/setup a bit...overall though you make great points...appreciate the feedback as it might help others...Thanks...
What fans would be compatible with this ?? I’ve been trying to find what fans can help me to connect to the MOBO since its one system fan header. Also is it possible to get light up fans connected to this MOBO? I want three atleast to be connected into this
I used a 3 fan splitter so using 3 fans, and also it doesn't have an ARGB Header so will need a converter, I used a 12V to 5V from EZDIY, and tried the Deepcool Converter as well, did a video on both in case you want to see it in action...normal .20amp fans will be fine, but ML Fans use more power so if you choose that then you'll need a Fan Hub instead...
So if your already using this MB then you can use any of the current GPU's, I've used both AMD and NVidia with it, from a GTX 1660TI up to the RX Radeon 5700 XT...you can use up to the Ryzen 7 3800X beyond that I'm not certain, but likely...I don't think you'll be able to use the new CPU's about to come out without a BIOS update, and even then not certain as while AMD says they've decided to release a BIOS that would allow it, if I was upgrading I'd get either a B550 MB or X570 to take advantage of newer products...
I have this motherboard and I need help with the orientation of the RGB header called CPU_LED. Which way does the arrow of the RGB strip go towards, up or down?
So first this MB doesn't have an Addressable RGB Header which is required for a 3 Pin 5V ARGB Header, and this MB has a 4 Pin 12V RGB Header, to know how the arrow goes is the arrow goes at the Pin that indicates either 5V or 12V, usually on the left side, so just look at the MB and see what it says, but don't plug in a 3 Pin 5V into a 12V RGB Header or it can short out the RGB...The left side is typically the place where the 12V will be...
@@Reviewing_Playing_and_More_RPM I should have clarified a little more, I have a 4 pin RGB strip that I want to plug in. And the pins are not labeled on the motherboard, it does not say 12v RGB, it says LED_CPU so which way do I plug in my strip? which way will the arrow in my strip go? the header is oriented vertically.
@@yasirgames5354 The Pin nearest to the GPU Slot, is the 12V...because it's 4 Pin 12V if you put it in and it didn't work, you can just plug it in the other way, since it's designed to handle 12V it won't hurt it to try either way...

There is only 1 Fan Header and 1 CPU Header, if you have more fans you can use either a fan splitter or Fan Hub...
@@Reviewing_Playing_and_More_RPM thank you man🙂 i finished my pc build thanks
@@Syllogistically Awesome...great job...
Could you please point out where the RGB header is ??
It's to the right of the CPU and behind the Mic, Sound and Speaker it's very near the Sys_Fan Header...it just says LED Header though, but it's listed as an RGB Header...no ARGB Header though...I'm planning to test and if it works do a video on how to activate ARGB on this board though, using a converter...Thanks...
Wait I got the f_usb1 connected but idk where to put the other side of the cable
I'll need more to answer your question, as the cables come from the computer case that go into the MB, so if you have a USB cable plugged into the MB, then there is no other end as it's attached to the computer case...give me more info if you meant something else...Thanks...
Everybody likes exploring a new box!! 🤘
Well that's good for me then lol...Thanks...
What card does it have to be and will it effect fps
Guessing you mean which GPU, it can run most modern GPU's, I used a GTX 1660TI, and even the Sapphire RX 5700 XT on it and it worked great, so choice is yours...
Will it support the AMD Ryzen 5 3600? The price on this mobo just dropped, and I wanted to make sure. Also, is there a reason it dropped? It’s now $70, without a sale going on, so I don’t know if there’s anything wrong with it?
Also, I’m new to pc building, so sorry if this is a strange question, but does it support a GeForce gtx 1650 super?
Sorry this is so long, but I just want to make sure. Can it support or connect to a m.2 ssd chip?
Yes it will support the Ryzen 5 3600, price for this MB is usually low as it only has 1 Fan Header, and 1 CPU Header, and it's more of a low end budget MB so if you can get it at a good price and that works for your build then it's gtg...You can use current GPU's including the GTX 1650 Super, the price also reflects the lact of PCIe slots and ability to add Adapters, you can add 1 but with the GPU in place it covers the PCIe slot so it can't be used...it does also have support for M.2 SSD...Thanks...
Reviewing Playing & More RPM Thanks for the help. So should I be able to use the GPU and SSD at the same time?
Yes no problems...
Thanks for the review sir. I want to buy this motherboard and ADM Ryzen 3 3200g. my question is can I buy an extra fan to make my CPU cooler? is there any room for that?
This MB is not compatible with the Ryzen 3 3200G...and yes you can get a Fan Hub or splitter to run up to 3 fans...
This is what I need to learn more about thank you for sharing maybe we can talk one of these days. God bless bye for now your friend Ken
Absolutely!! Any time...Bless you too Ken...Thanks...
I can’t use Bluetooth on my pc was wondering if it was a motherboard thing
This MB doesn't have Bluetooth, you'll need a Bluetooth Dongle or adapter...Thanks...
Aww dam okay thanks
@@ElPurified the WiFi version has Bluetooth
Does this motherboard come with wifi?
No WiFi unfortunately and it only has 1 fan header just so you know, but I still like it and it fit my needs, it's likely it'll be my test system for projects...I bought a 3 way Fan Splitter and was able to hook up 3 fans no problems...

Great review! i guess we cant sync thru Mobo (rgb fusion app) the argb fans since it doesnt have RGB header. So the only way to control the lightnings of the fan is thru remote that comes with the fans. did i get it right or other way around? will appreciate the reply. hehe
That correct...I did a video on how to use the RGB Header as a ARGB Header though, works on mine now...
Great video! ⚡️ B450's have been hard to come by recently. Waiting for my Msi B450 gaming plus max to start my budget build. Thanks for the detailed overview!
Yeah that's partly why I got this one, but it has what I'll need for now...alot of PC parts are hard to get now or overpriced...take care man...Thanks...
Are RGB strips compatible with this board?
Yes they are compatible...
Reviewing Playing & More RPM do you know what the pins look like on the board?
@@csherm7686 It's a 4 Pin 12V RGB Header...
How many fan headers does it have?
1 CPU Fan Header and 1 System Fan Header so if you have lots of fans you'll need a splitter or Fan Hub...Thanks...

@@Scrubby.55 Yes, or you could get a USB Dongle with Wireless on it...Thanks...
Is it going to run for my Ryzen 5 3500? Just making sure!
If you mean a Ryzen 5 3600 then yes, the 3500 is a mobile processor...Thanks...
Don't know whether Ryzen 5 3500 is available all over the world or not, still taking into consideration of India, we have Ryzen 5 3500 with 6C/6T which is a fully functioning desktop processor.

Not all are, there are some that require a BIOS update...Thanks...
great unboxing video friend,useful stuff
Thank you! Cheers!
Is this a reliable board? I plan to build around a Ryzen 5 2600 and just need reliability. Thanks.
It is, but there is only 1 Fan Header and 1 CPU Header, in case that makes a difference, a good choice would be a B550 so you can be ready for future upgrades...I'm using this MB with a Ryzen 3 3100 and it works great...I use a 3 way fan splitter...there's no ARGB though as well...
@@Reviewing_Playing_and_More_RPM I don't plan on upgrading for years so I'll get the 3 way fan splitter like you.

Hi there, I'm planning my first PC build and was deciding either this motherboard or another MSI board. Do you think that if I buy one of these today the BIOS version would be compatible with a Ryzen 5 4600G? Thanks.
Yes but you'll need BIOS version F60. If the motherboard is using an older BIOS version, upgrading the BIOS will be necessary to support the CPU.
can i use 3 intake fans and 1 exhaust fan on this motherboard??
It only has 1 Fan Header, so you'll need a Fan splitter, I had a 3 way fan splitter that I used...as I'm using 3 fans in total but to use 4 in total you might need a Fan Hub...
Thanks for the info!
does it come with internet sorry if i missed it in the video
If you mean WiFi no, it needs a WiFi adapter...
where do you plug in rgb fans?
Depends on your fans, most fans use Addressable RGB, but this budget MB only has an RGB Header no ARGB Header, so you'll need a adapter, I did a video on the one I used called the Deepcool Converter, it will work with this MB, here is the link in case you want to have a look at it, hope it helps: th-cam.com/video/sK4PGOZ0EGA/w-d-xo.html
@@Reviewing_Playing_and_More_RPM i have deep cool rf120 fans so i need to get an adapter?
@@KennyJamesRX8 So just had a look at this product, best I can see is it uses RGB if so there is an RGB Header on the MB that you can use, basically it works like this, a 3 Pin 5V uses an Addressable RGB Header, if it's a 4 Pin 12V then it uses a RGB Header, this MB has a RGB Header but no ARGB Header, so if yours has the 4 Pin 12V then your gtg with the RGB Header on this MB, just plug it in and use either the controller that comes with these fans, or the MB Software to control the RGB...
@@Reviewing_Playing_and_More_RPM okay where on this mb is the rgb header located?
@@KennyJamesRX8 It's directly behind where the Mic and speaker are on the MB, it's poorly labelled though, so check your MB Manual for which direction to place it on...specifically lining up the Arrow on the RGB Cable to the 12V pin on the RGB Header...

If my case has 3 fans in it will all work because I heard only one will work?
You will need a Fan Hub, as this MB has only 1 Sys_Fan Header, and 1 CPU Fan Header...
Hi, So those usb after the tpm module, is that where I plug in my USB for my rgb fan controller? thanks in advance
Yes, just after the TPM is a Com port, then the USB and USB 3.0 not sure what controller your using but if it's USB then it'll be good. Otherwise if it's an actual RGB cable there are two types, 3 Pin 5V ARGB Header or 4 Pin 12V RGB Header.
@@Reviewing_Playing_and_More_RPM thank you so much for your response. It's actually more complicated than I thought. I have nzxt aer2 fans with a lianli controller. doesn't seem like they're compatible. looks like I'll have to buy a nzxt controller.
@@superdidzero Ah I see, nice fans never used those ones before but yeah if the NZXT Controller will work with them that makes sense.
Does this motherboard support SLI?
No unfortunately...just Crossfire...
Is there built in wifi on this?
Unfortunately no, you'll need a USB Dongle or WiFi Adapter...
Do pcie wifi adapters work if i have a 1660s card in the board? Im worried i wont have enough room
Yes, I used a PCIe adapter to enable Type C on the case so needed to use a WiFi Dongle but if you don't need that then a WiFi Adapter will work no problem...

No screws?
Yes it came with all the screws, stand offs, twist ties and other typical items that a MB comes with. If I didn't show that I must have forgotten sorry about that.
so with this motherboard i can’t buy a cpu cooler with rgb?
You can just that you need ARGB in most instances so you'd need a RGB Converter to make it work...Deepcool has one I did a video on that explains how it works...
without gpu will this one work?

Im currently building a gaming pc with this motherboard. Only problem i’ve had is the limited space between my RX 570 Graphics Card (which takes up 2 slots) and bottom pci-e slot. If you were to take up both pci-e slots it would block a lot of air flow. I also wanted to install a wifi pci-e adapter with a built-in heatsink but it wont fit because the F-Audio cable is in the way. So i was forced to go with a cheaper, thinner wifi adapter which isnt a big deal for me but i thought people reading this might wanna know. It does however have just enough room for an Elgato HD60 capture card (I could just remove the f-audio cable and no problem). I also would’ve liked ARGB but i found a way around that. Other than that, this mother board is pretty good for the price. Good value and alright looking.
It is lacking things for sure, but that's why it's priced the way it is, it's a budget MB but does work for similar like builds...I just did a video with it for later today, and ran into the same issue's, I used a USB Dongle for WiFi (AC 1200) which works really well, and still leaves me room for one adapter...I do think Airflow will depend a lot on case and how fans are used/setup a bit...overall though you make great points...appreciate the feedback as it might help others...Thanks...

What fans would be compatible with this ?? I’ve been trying to find what fans can help me to connect to the MOBO since its one system fan header. Also is it possible to get light up fans connected to this MOBO? I want three atleast to be connected into this
I used a 3 fan splitter so using 3 fans, and also it doesn't have an ARGB Header so will need a converter, I used a 12V to 5V from EZDIY, and tried the Deepcool Converter as well, did a video on both in case you want to see it in action...normal .20amp fans will be fine, but ML Fans use more power so if you choose that then you'll need a Fan Hub instead...

So I’m planning on upgrading my cpu and graphics card, however I’m not sure what cpu or graphics card is suitable in terms of high tier components?
So if your already using this MB then you can use any of the current GPU's, I've used both AMD and NVidia with it, from a GTX 1660TI up to the RX Radeon 5700 XT...you can use up to the Ryzen 7 3800X beyond that I'm not certain, but likely...I don't think you'll be able to use the new CPU's about to come out without a BIOS update, and even then not certain as while AMD says they've decided to release a BIOS that would allow it, if I was upgrading I'd get either a B550 MB or X570 to take advantage of newer products...
I have this motherboard and I need help with the orientation of the RGB header called CPU_LED. Which way does the arrow of the RGB strip go towards, up or down?
So first this MB doesn't have an Addressable RGB Header which is required for a 3 Pin 5V ARGB Header, and this MB has a 4 Pin 12V RGB Header, to know how the arrow goes is the arrow goes at the Pin that indicates either 5V or 12V, usually on the left side, so just look at the MB and see what it says, but don't plug in a 3 Pin 5V into a 12V RGB Header or it can short out the RGB...The left side is typically the place where the 12V will be...
