Review: ASRock B550 Phantom Gaming-ITX/ax

Review: ASRock B550 Phantom Gaming-ITX/ax

Priced at just over 200 bucks, meet one of the smaller B550 Chipset based motherboards we review, the Mini-ITX based B550 Phantom Gaming-ITX/ax review, at 17x17cm AROCK loaded this B550 motherboard with some good features including dual M2 slots, 2.5 GigE Ethernet, AX WIFI and a pleasantly devised VRM. Well, simply put it's nearly a huge motherboard at a mini size.

Pretty solid little board. I might be looking at an extra small build here in a bit when the new 3000 series from Nvidia do drop.

I'm stoked at how small the PCB is and how it will look with a proper waterblock on it. So small hopefully I can smash one inside a m-atx/itx build with some radiator action to pair with it.

Very nice review, very nice board... too bad that there is no APU to put on it yet.
Because of that and that most of the GPU board are 2 or 3 slot, so this board will fight with mATX board that are less expensive for the same thing.

I hope that B550 will have soon an APU solution to exploit this card in a real small chassis (it would be really kick ass)

That board looks funny next to the radiator. Not a bad price either for such a tiny board.

Cool little board but I don't think it holds a candle at that price without more audio connectors(optical) and bios flash/reset button on the back.
You can do better Asrock, I really wanted your b450's replacement.
