    Like a letter in the post.

    Received on time and in perfect condition. Worked right out of the box with a ryzen 3 3200g sitting in a drawer.

    Good for small jobs

    Personally, this motherboard is in my living room computer.
    With a Ryzen 3600+ and 16GB at 3400MHz and an old 1070Ti 8GB, films and a few 3D games run well, and everything is stable.

    Good quality

    It is a very good motherboard, the only problem is the PCI ports (port to connect the network card) because there is only one which is very quickly covered if you have a thick graphics card, there is still the solution of the ethernet cable obviously

    Very good

    This is what I was looking for to renovate an ageing configuration.
    The processor I had chosen did not include a graphics chip (not specified in the configurator, too bad).
    in the configurator, too bad) I was waiting for a CG.
    I received a graphics card today which allowed me to finish the installation
    Impeccable

    Be careful, you can't put a graphics card + a wifi card

    I was able to send it back for a refund because the pci-E ports are not very well spaced out, so you can't put two cards in at the same time. The card itself seems to be of good quality, but I could only find 2 connectors for usb 2.0 on the front.
