Shields/heatsinks are not flimsy, the entire board feels sturdy which was a requirement for this build.

Has basically everything you need for regular gaming on the lower end.

I was so impressed by how easy it was to assemble this and also the price was very affordable. Great working motherboard processor combination super fast. I put a 50 series RTX card on it. Its a nice new DDR five and 1000 W power supply. The machine works killer Very impressed.

Easy installation. Good value for price. Very good design. All the features a gamer needs. Plenty of connectivity for everything.


The x870e Tomahawk offers a solid blend of features and affordability. With four M.2 slots, convenient arrangement of ports for front panel and connectors, ample space for other components to live and breathe. I had no trouble assembling a modern computer (GTX 5080, AMD 9800X3D, 64GB DDR5 6000 RAM, RM1000x PSU). Compared to old arrangements, the care they took to ensure easy connectors for modern cases where many of the cables can route to the back, or connect to the side, makes for an elegant final build. I especially appreciate the ease of installing up to four M.2 hard drives with integrated heatsinks, but it can also support plenty of 2.5" to 3.5" SATA and SSD drives as well. The BIOS is clear with many settings for beginners and experts alike to fine-tune. Right out of the box it worked fine. The drivers are included on a USB stick to make it easy to get up and running, where you can then grab the latest updates through MSI Center. The on-screen display doubles as a CPU temperature, and is convenient for eyeballing any issues or performance. It has plenty of RGB and fan connectors including a dedicated one for a water cooler (System Pump), CPU, case fans. I have it all running flawlessly and am happy to have taken the leap and upgraded.

Everything works as described and as I expected.

Loved the Color..in-person is more like sliver white but looks 🔥 IT HAS WIFI 6 WHICH IS IDEAL AS I RUN BOTH WIN10 AND W11...WIFI 7 DOESN'T ALLOW W10, SO JUST FYI.

Has all the features you would want. Looks and runs great!


Super heavy and solid. Looks like it won't flex with a heavy graphics card or large cooler.

- Compact - Tons of M.2 - Amazing memory support - Amazing OOTB CPU support - Not running too hot under normal use

-Simple set up -Flash BIOS -Looks great for the price

Attractive even with no LEDs.

Windows 11 compatible. (Caution: Not all ASRock B450s are officially Windows 11 compatible! But this one is compatible.) Paired with AMD Ryzen 5 5600 Bios is easy to use. (Note: My use is not gaming.)


I bought this motherboard as an upgrade from the Gigabyte Aorus Elite Wifi x570 for AM4. The B850 for AM5 is a much nicer board with some nice features. The EZ latch system is a real plus making the installation of SSDs and GPUs so much easier. The offset latch button for the GPU is a godsend. No more squeezing your hand between the GPU and air cooler to unlatch the GPU to take it out. The board is has a clean look with lots a connections and everything you need.

SEALED BOX REALLY GOOD PACKED INCLUDED ALL THE MANUALS AND ACCESORIES EASY TO SETUP WORKED RIGHT OUT THE BOX WITH MY RYZEN 5 9600X

Basically the same product as Asrock's B650I motherboard but with the removal of the nvme fan which took up alot of space and clearance for coolers and updated to ryzen 9000 series cpu's

very little RGB Great features Easy to use
