The unit has enough features to keep you busy for a while. The looks pass anything that can be considered entry-level or value really, including a rear IO bracket, the primary graphics slot has metal shielding.
The motherboard includes all of the standardized B450 chipset options with one full speed M.2 SSD slot, there is no second one though. Also lacking is a thermal cover for the M2 unit.
The I/O back panel reveals several USB 3.1 ports. The audio unit based on Realtek 892. You will spot one 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet jack from Realtek. Included is a PS/2 keyboard/mouse combo port. Lacking is an optical S/PDIF out port and five analog audio jacks. With an APU you can use either DVI or HDMI for monitor output.
The board comes with one 8-pin power connector. You'll get four DIMM slots that can be used for up-to 64GB of dual-channel memory. With regular Ryzen procs, up-to 3200 MHz is supported in OC mode, with the new Zen+ models 3466 MHz is supported. Please do check compatible memory and thus the QVL (Qualified Vendors Lists). There is little active RGB blink to be found on the PCB, only the backside of the PCB has an array of HALO LEDs.
