MSI MAG B550 TOMAHAWK : a gorgeous mess!

[@richardstoica2954]

I use 4x8 Gskill Trident Z RGB/NEO 3200 c14 clocked to 4000 c16 16 16 36, with an 5800x. And it's working fine ! I guess ram can go much higher but i need to keep 1:1:1 ratio...Didn't tried going above that because i know that right now , not many 5000 cpu's can reach 2000 FCLK or above. So Maybe with ryzen 3000 you can't go past 3600 with 4 sticks of ram, but with 5000 you can even go above 4000. Memory frequency is driven by the memory controller from the cpu for the most part, ofc motherboard have it's role in that aswell , but the culprit usually is the memory controller from the cpu itself. And the front panel usb 3.2 header is 5gbs not 10.

[@Laurentschoice]

Im pinning this very useful comment to the top of the video feed. Thank you Richard for taking the time to write this!!!!

[@panthonyy]

good to point you made there, it's probably my only complaint about that board... lack of a front panel 3.2 gen 2 usb port

[@PrettyKenziePrincess]

RAM speed doesnt make any difference for gaming though, and since this is a gaming motherboard, even if the RAM was 2400MHz it would play games exactly the same as 10000MHz RAM. So by lowering the speed per module its not making any difference I think. If this was directed towards high end servers running special software that require fast RAM, I would say yeah its some sort of scam haha

[@richardstoica2954]

@@PrettyKenziePrincess It depends, if u are heavy cpu bound , u may see some fps increase , sometimes even a noticeable difference. But in most cases the difference is small or sometimes not at all. I've testet with an i3 12100f with 2133 mhz and 3200 mhz , and in Guild Wars 2 the difference was noticeable , like 15+ fps more (the minimum fps).

[@PrettyKenziePrincess]

@@richardstoica2954 I see what you mean, Im running a 5950x with 64gb ram, I have tried benchmarks at 2133mhz and 4000mhz and the scores were basically identical. So it must also depend on the processing power. No game is gonna max out the 5950x even Star Citizen, which is the game I play the most at the moment, its the most CPU intensive game I have ever played, it took my old CPU (intel 6950x) to around 80%, my new CPU the 5950x never goes beyond 40% and the ram speed make no difference at all so far.

Thanks. I was on the edge which motherboard to use for my gaming rig, and this video settled it, because i know from your prior videos that you point your finger towards flaws, and wouldnt hold back naming them. If you say this is the board to go for below 200, thats it then.

[@MilanVoorhees]

The praise it received for its cooling in various reviews and the inclusion of a front panel Type-C header were enough for me to opt for it. Going with an NZXT H510 Elite, I really wanted to be able to utilize that front port, even though I could've gone for something cheaper that's maybe only slightly worse in overall quality.

[@ryanjofre]

It’s kinda pathetic in my professional opinion how uncommon a front USB c header has been from great companies like Asus @ the price point. It should have been standard years ago on anything but ultra budget boards. Are you still running this mobo? How do you like it?

[@subwoofer359]

I picked and bought this board because it had two ethernet ports which I use in a link aggregration setup and can use the 2.5gbe port when affordable 2.5gbe switches come out. I don't understand why people want Wifi, it's flaky at the best of time. It just can't beat wired ethernet at the moment. I like the graphics you use for explaining the motherboards layout! Easy to understand and informative.

[@hughluttrell6350]

If the date is right i had ordered five B450 Tomahawk boards from different venders.July of 2020 i was just waiting,you were very lucky to even own this board by then!

[@mdcastle]

There's also the MSI Gaming Edge Wifi which appears to be virtually identical to this board, comparing the two it has exactly the same components in the same places. At $10 more it adds Wifi, loses the secondary LAN port, and has a vastly different aesthetic. I have no use for Wifi but I think the Tomahawk is as ugly as sin so I bought the Gaming Edge. $10.00 was worth it to me to not to have to look at the Tomahawk every day. PS/2 seems to be a waste until you get a Windows install where it hasn't properly loaded USB-2 drivers so a USB keyboard and mouse won't work, yet it won't advance until it you enter your user name. I had this happen on a Dell SFF prebuilt I was trying to reload the latest version of Windows on after a drive crash and the only solution was to dig an ancient PS-2 keyboard out from the castoff pile in the basement. USB ports are skimpy, but at least they included front USB-C, something most manufacturers don't do at this price point. If you need a bunch of I/O presumably you buy the X570 version. Or do like I did an add a Startech 4-port, 4-host-controller USB card because I was tired of having USB issues when using motherboard ports with four sensors for my Oculus Rift.

[@foodieontour]

Many good points. But PS/2 is essential for a good keyboard and a second LAN is highly valued. Gaming boards are the best cheap workstation boards anyway so do not talk MSI out of the PS/2 port!

[@skideric]

I'm with you on the PS2 Ports! Besides,it they put USB ports instead,then you gotta use them up for Mouse & KB,so what do you gain?

[@Kazyek]

9:04 I disagree with this too; Gamers should NEVER, EVER be on Wi-Fi; Wi-Fi is NOT ACCEPTABLE for online gaming, no matter how "good" your wifi is; it's just a less stable link, and low jitter + 0 packet drop is the only thing that matter for online gaming, bandwidth is IRRELEVANT. Therefore, having 2 ethernet cable means you can use the PC also as a LAN switch to route a cable to another computer, helping in having a ethernet network in your house instead of relying on Wi-Fi.

@Laurent's Choice Not sure the reasoning but maybe this is why the two LAN ports? After installing this motherboard, i ran an internet speed test... i noticed i was getting nearly half as fast download and upload speeds than usual. I was using the 2.5 port figuring MOAR=BETTER even though it doesnt exactly fit my use case. I switched to the 1GB port and my speeds were back to normal.... maybe this is why theyre both included? I imagine how pissed i would be if only the 2.5 port was avail to me given if there arent some settings that could be tweaked (?)... regardless it would still be annoying considering my a320 i upgraded from was plug and go for me as there was only the 1GB supported port.... is the 2.5GB port not backwards compatible for those of us who dont support those speeds thus including both? btw loved the review best on this board. Subbed. I bought this motherboard for 25.00 and aparently it was only a month old. The kid messed with bios settings and got black screens, no post. Albelt he was selling for parts, i had a feeling it was fine and i was right. Took a while to figure out what he did lol but worth it. Considering i was fixing to pay full price at best buy i was VERY happy. And i NEVER buy used, but i couldnt pass this up.

i'm wonder to use AORUS RGB Memory 4400MHz 16GB Memory Kit on Mag B550. help me could it run at 4400MHz? thanks

you shouldn't run above 1:1 on the infinity fabric which can on most(all) boards run 1800Mhz (3600MHz RAM) and on some boards run 1900MHz (3800MHz RAM), above that the infinity fabric would run a 2:1, so running ram at 4000 (2000MHz is above the 1800-1900 most/all boards can do) would turn it down to HALF that... so 1000MHz and the ram would be running at 2000MHz (which with double data rate would mean "4000MHz") your 4400MHz RAM (which in really runs 2200MHz) would have an 1100MHz infinity fabric, insted of the original 1800-1900MHz so on paper your RAM is running super fast, but the internal paths on the CPU runs much slower = not good.

9:00 they already did that, its the wifi version of the b550 tomahawk. which doesnt have the ethernet 1gb

2 lan ports are great... 1Gbit for Internet (it is 1Gbit out to the net anyways so perfectly fine) 2.5Gbit for the NAS = super fast storage solution, which is excellent. PS2 connect and gpu connectors on an ATX board can just go and die... APU's should not be used in ATX sized motherboards.
