I recently purchased two of these motherboards (one to upgrade an existing system and one for a new build) as part of a combo deal Amazon has been offering with the Ryzen 5 1600 (approx. $295 bundled price). Overall, I have been quite happy with the features and performance of this board considering its cost. First, I am happy to report that I have had no issues running my RAM (corsair vengeance 3000 Mhz) at 2933 Mhz in both of these boards which was a pleasant surprise considering some of the early issues all of the b350 and x370 motherboards had with ram compatibility. However, it should be noted that this board's UEFI (i.e, BIOS) is somewhat limited when it comes to overclocking support features (e.g., no Load-Line Calibration, among other settings) when compared to most X370 boards and some B350 boards from other manufacturers. That aside, I was able to easily achieve stable 3.8 GHz overclocks on both of my systems running at reasonable voltages (1.33-1.34v). Perhaps a more expensive X370 board would have allowed for slightly better overclocking results (3.9 or 4.0 GHz under the best case scenario) but that is no guarantee as such performance is highly dependent on the individual characteristics of each CPU.One concern that I did have with this board pertains to its VRM (voltage regulator module) cooling solution (an unimpressive mosfet heatsink) as VRM temps with both of my systems did seem rather high during my initial stress/stability tests (VRM temps slightly exceeding 100c). Related to this, it appears this board benefits from CPU air coolers that have a downward facing fan (i.e., blowing air directly onto the motherboard which helps to cool the VRMs) such as the ryzen 5 1600's included wraith spire cooler. For both of my systems, I opted for a more robust CM Hyper 212 EVO tower cooler oriented in the north/south position to blow hot air toward my case's rear exhaust fan - which unfortunately does not promote air flow directly onto the motherboard to help cool the VRMs. It should be noted that the VRM mosfets used in this board have a maximum operating temperature of 150c (NTMFS4C06N); however, from what I understand the board's VRM mosfet temperature sensor is not directly on the mosfets (so they likely run a little hotter than the reported temperature) and running at or near the mosfet's maximum operating temperature could potentially damage components in close proximity on the board. In general, these high VRM mosfet temperatures should not be an issue when running ryzen CPU's at stock settings with downward facing air coolers; however, tower coolers and AIO liquid coolers may encounter the issue I have described - particularly when overclocking at higher voltages but perhaps even at stock settings for some users. In my case, I decided to actively cool my VRM's by turning my rear exhaust case fan around (blowing air into the case) and securing a 4 inch plastic dryer hood vent (cut to size) to the case fan so that ambient air was being blown directly on the VRMs (see pics). This modification drastically brought down my VRM temps from about 105c to 75c during stress testing (max VRM temps during normal usage now run about 40-50c). Although this solution could be somewhat unsightly depending on your pc case, it certainly worked for me and only cost around $5.To sum up, overall this board has a nice blend of features (overclocking ability, m.2 ssd support, plenty of fan headers [5 total], among others) at a reasonable price. However, the VRM's on this board could benefit from more phases and/or a better cooling solution than is currently provided. Just some things to keep in mind as you consider purchasing AM4 socket motherboards.
