Great Starter Board!
I paid around $90 for this as a MB for my kids first gaming computer. The Bios is very simple, and setup was a breeze. I ran into a minor issue when attaching the AMD provided cpu cooler, I wish the mounts stuck up a tiny bit more, but it just took some fine tuning with a screwdriver. Resetting the bios was very simple when needed. The only minor complaint I have is the instructions on RAM. I was only using 1 channel and none of the literature was very clear where to put a single stick. I figured it out though. All-in-all it was exactly what I expected.

Works perfectly
Running a Ryzen 5 2600x w/ a stock cooler, GeIL Evo Potenza 16GB DDR4-3000, 15-17-17-35 Timing, 15 Latency, and an EVGA GTX 1080 ACX 3.0 without any issue. Enabling XMP gets the ram to its full speed (higher speeds benefit Ryzen). No frills, no marketing bs, it just works and you get great value for what you pay for.

flawless!
This is a no-nonsense board which has worked perfectly from first power-on (now in use 6 weeks). Populated with 2 x 16GB Patriot RAM, a Ryzen 5 2600 and an EVGA GTX 1660 video card. Never misses a beat.
