MSI B550M Pro-VDH WiFi

Good things can come in small packages!

Bought this board as a temporary replacement for my Aorus mobo which broke and had to send for RMA. Very good price with good features. Quite easy to build on. Recommended for budget builds.

Very slow WI-FI speeds

The download speed when connected to WIFI is very slow, about half the speed of my laptop, which is very disappointing because it is the main reason I bought this board. However I have not had any other problems, it has a nice layout and the capability to Flash BIOS is great

No issues here

Loads of features

Nicely laid out board with plenty of fan headers. Compared to my Gigabyte X570 UD on another computer this is probably better. Only complaint is that the USB 3.0 header is sticking off to the side rather than straight out, so it's quite hard to see and also difficult to get the plug in. BIOS is a bit different compared to Gigabyte but seems fairly user friendly.
