Sadly, now I'm stuck on the motherboard chapter once again.

The contestants are :

1. The MSI B450M BAZOOKA
and:
2. The ASRock B450M PRO4

Which one of the two boards should I buy? The B450M BAZOOKA is just an tad more expensive here, but an insignificant difference.


I will use 16GB of CL16 3200Mhz Corsair DDR4 RAM (2x8) and an Ryzen 5 2600X.

I have heard very bad things about the ASRock B450M PRO4, like freezes and stuff.

The MSI B450M BAZOOKA has worse I/O, tho.

Thanks in advance.

You realize the bios chips are the same for all the boards of a brand. The only difference is the bios UEFI itself thats written to the chip. If there was an issue it would be widespread over all the boards from ASROCK. Ive used 3 boards from them without issue. The thing to remember is there are a ton of,people with little to no computer knowledge who attempt to build a computer and dont seek help or,knowledge and mess it up. They then blame the parts manufacturer and,write a poor review. Id bet over 75% of bad reviews aren't legitimate hardware failures.
