    Very good motherboard for its price

    I've always had Asus motherboards and I've never been disappointed, but I'm going back to Amd with a Ryzen 7 2700X ordered at the same time, after more than 15 years with Intel, in short, I never rely too much on the commentary but rather on the review on the internet. This card has all the features of a great card, it has everything you need even in December 2020, good upgrade for a normal budget for a good PC, because I have to admit, it's getting crazy the prices of computer equipment.
    I'm not sure if it's a good idea to buy a new one, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to buy a new one, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to buy a new one, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to buy a new one. I have read that there are people who have had problems with vrm, and for my part no problem, even oc, the motherboard and vrm are always under the safe temperatures.

    Super

    I'm very pleased with the quality of this product.
    Nothing to say about the motherboard, UEFI intuitive and easy to assemble.
    I put 8/10 because I am a little disappointed with the contents inside:
    - Missing screws for installation
    - Only one part is in RGB

    Excellent product!

    Excellent motherboard with a price/performance ratio to match ROG. The motherboard is beautiful, sleek with nice lighting. The motherboard also has good features and is still complete for a B450.

    The only thing I can say about this motherboard is that the bios are poorly translated into French, the texts are mostly in English and some sentences don't mean anything, that's the only thing I can say about this motherboard! Otherwise, go for it, it's worth it ;)

    Very good motherboard

    Great motherboard that does the job very well. The LED to indicate where the problems are coming from is very practical and the design of the card is really nice.

    The only drawback is that I had to force it into my Zalman X3 case.

    Good and affordable MB

    Very nice gamer style design but not too much. Mounted with a Ryzen 5 2600. The Bios is less intuitive than on my old Sabertooth FX990 R2 motherboard but frankly when you don't have too much fun with overclocking it's quite sufficient. I've seen on forums that MSI have similar problems with shutting down the computer. The computer takes about 10 minutes to shut down and boots up in 5 seconds...

    A real pleasure for the eyes

    I give it a 5 because I'm surprised at all the capabilities of this motherboard but on top of that, the RBG is just beautiful.

    ASUS STRIX B450-F GAMING

    I received the product in 3 days, it was well packaged, good value for money, and I can't find a better one. Thanks to LDLC, and above all THANKS to Marc from LDLC, who gave me good advice for the card, and above all for many other future products.

    CM Correct

    I've got a Ryzen 5 2600, 16GB DDR4 Corsair and a RX480 and I have no compatibility problems. The UEFI from Asus is not bad at all.

    However I regret:
    - there are not enough ports for the fans
    - a corrected version of this card has been released and improves the VRM problems of this one: the ASUS B450-E
