I'm using this mb with ryzen 2600x and 1660ti. cpu cooler is coolermaster hyper 212 evo. 3x12 cm fan in front of case and 2x12 cm exhaust fan at back. Cpu is max 45 celcius under heavy load and 28-32 idle. motherboard is max 35 celsius min 28. I recommend this budget build to everyone.
I'm really new to pc building and I am planning on using this board. I was advised to ask if there were wifi and blue tooth adapter, that came along this board.
Btw it was skipped in the video but there is also a 4PIN chassis fan connector just behind the rear IO audio. Had to look up the manual to make sure ;) Putting it here maybe it'll help someone like me. You can see it in the bg at 4:07.
So I'm tempted to get this and a 3200g as a really cheap PC for my mum to replace her old Q6600 machine. So as long as it's Rev 4.0 it WILL support the 3200g right?
Thank you, I have been searching for a good cheap board that will support a 2600 out of the box and most am4 boards in this range have been saying they won't post with 2000 series ryzen processors so thank you for your help.

Nice review, and thank you, had to get this since the msi gaming pro wouldnt be able to ship in time due to all the craziness, cheaper and it will get the job done
Kinda late but I wanna pitch in that a few people, including myself, have had bios issues with this motherboard - such as being unable to change memory clocks, mine were stuck at 2999 and any time I tried setting it to anything else, including below 2999 the system would not boot anymore requiring me to reset the bios. I've also experienced stability issues when AMD's core boost thing is turned on, however that might have been my 2400g because the 2999 memory might have already stretched its stability due to zen 1 having issues with their memory controllers
do you need a graphics card for the pc to post? I have the Ryzen 5 3600 and I haven't gotten the graphics card yet, can the PC post without the graphics card or does the motherboard need some sort of BIOS update, please reply
If the fan has an rgb connector then i dont think you can since im sure the motherboard doesnt have any headers but you can use an adaptor. If the fan only has a 4 pin/3 pin then you're fine.

Hi Friend, I am building a PC for the first time in my life. Do you think if I will buy the board sometime this week it will come with a pre updated bios to support 3000 ryzen ?
@@mikesunboxing I have this board and a Ryzen 3 2200. Bought all the components maybe three years ago. It's December 2022 now. Was considering buying a Ryzen 5 before I got started. Is just going to be an internet maching.
what is the highest overclock you would do or what motherboard would u suggest for overclocking keep in mind my case is a microatx so it would have to be a microatx
impossible question to answer with such limited information. Overclocking depends on many factors including silicon quality , decent power delivery ambient temps etc etc.
Mike, does this board support RGB FAN CONTROLL?? I have some Raidmax fan controller and 5x case fan RGB but dont know will it work. Please help, buy or not buy!?
I bought the B450 HDV 4.0 board with 3400G package. but after assembling, I did not get display. I called the seller and he says I need to update bios with an older cpu? Is that right? This version should work with 3400g right away. Also, I do not see a sticker on the bios chip, and it looks like it was taken off. I am thinking of sending it back.
@@mikesunboxing In the meantime,I contacted Asrock. They told me if there is no sticker on the bios chip, then they have already updated with the latest bios and should work with 3400g, and I should send it back to the seller if it does not. So I am shipping it back today. Someoen also told me that 3400g has also compatibility issues with many DDR4s. is that correct?
Hi there, this is a really good review, so on point, make me consider buying hdv (non r.40) board cuz of its better in that list but still price matters, r4.0 must be a bit cheaper? If i need m.2 x4 pcie slot, support zen3/ryzen 5000, and maybe just a little bit oc (though i might not oc the cpu) is this board the best cheapest board? I am going to buy ryzen 5 3600 cuz of my tight budget right now, maybe in a couple years will upgrade to ryzen 5 5600 or higher...(ofc non X cuz i am afraid my current psu can't supply enough power)
i would maybe consider a newer b550 the prices seem to have come down rather nicely and something like the MSI B550 pro a or vdh pro wifi will suit that setup and have good enough VRM for future overclocking
Hi bro, good review, i have question for you, which of these 3 motherboards will be the best for ryzen 5 3600, msi b450m a pro max, asrock b450m r.4.0 or asrock a520m hdv? If there are better motherboards in this budget, you can mention them.
depends on what sticker is on the bios chip. All new stock will have the BIOS already so just make sure you are buying from a busy shop and you should be fine

Good day Mike, great video! Would I be able to overclock my r5 2600 to 4.0 ghz using this mobo? Keeping in mind I've bought a new cooler for this new setup (Deepcool Gammax 400). Would using a better cooler such as the Gammax help the mobo deal with the temp loads and potentially run at 4.0 ghz?
Yes it will it the cooling is good and there is good airflow and obviously the silicon lottery is a factor 4ghz all core might be tough but it does rely on all the other components
Looking forward into buying this mobo for my ryzen 5 3600x + gtx 750ti (using some hardware that I have left), any opinion? I want to make it as cheap as possible, the other option is Gigabyte B450M K AMD B450 SKAM4 (5€ more)
I want to install some vrm heat sinks but I don’t know exactly where to put them. How many would I need for this board? And would it do anything for thermals like make the board cooler?
love the video ! but i was hoping you could possibly answer my question i recently bought this board off offerup and the last cpu it was paired with was a ryzen 5 2600 if i add my ryzen 5 3600 will there be an issue with it ? or will i have to update bios
I need this model as I see it offers drivers for win 7 (cannot use another win, personal work reasons) but I am not sure if it needs bios update for a 4600G?
if i ever plan to upgrade to the Ryzen 7 5800X3D then would it be possible? like the 4-pin cpu power connector can provide upto 129W and the Ryzen 7 at peak needs 105W. I initially thought of a Ryzen 9 5900X but its too close to the max limit (127W). Currently I would be using a Ryzen 7 2700X.
@@truesyner2009 you would probably be better served with a B550 chipset if the budget allows, they will in general have a much better VRM solution as well as PCie gen 4 support

You might do depending how old the board is. Look on the bios chip it will have a sticker with the bios version on it. Then check that with the cpu compatibility chart and see if you have a match although the fans should at least spin?

Very informative, appreciate it!
My pleasure!
Does this board support rgb fans if not what would i need
no it doesn't you will need a hub or controller of some kind
Kinda late but I wanna pitch in that a few people, including myself, have had bios issues with this motherboard - such as being unable to change memory clocks, mine were stuck at 2999 and any time I tried setting it to anything else, including below 2999 the system would not boot anymore requiring me to reset the bios.
I've also experienced stability issues when AMD's core boost thing is turned on, however that might have been my 2400g because the 2999 memory might have already stretched its stability due to zen 1 having issues with their memory controllers
Awesome I got all the parts works perfectly I have the 1600 AF I have the 3.20 bios should I do the 3.70? Doesn't give much info on the update
Use it as is and see if the system is stable and you get the correct ram speeds if this works okay there is no immediate need to update in my opinion
do you need a graphics card for the pc to post? I have the Ryzen 5 3600 and I haven't gotten the graphics card yet, can the PC post without the graphics card or does the motherboard need some sort of BIOS update, please reply
you will need a gpu for it to post
Can I connect rgb fans and control them?
Sorry if my english is bad, im from Croatia.😄
If the fan has an rgb connector then i dont think you can since im sure the motherboard doesnt have any headers but you can use an adaptor. If the fan only has a 4 pin/3 pin then you're fine.
there is no RGB controller on this board sorry
Yes you can use an adaptor
Great video So can I overclock a Ryzen 3 3200G 3.6ghz base 4.0ghz boost with 2x8 (16) GB 3000mhz Oloy Gaming UDIMM?
Silicon lottery but maybe possible
@@mikesunboxing ok so I activated the xmp 2.0 profile though reviews bout doing it scared me. but I did instead of manual OC and its working like a charm and fast O lawd! Lol
I'm planning to buy an R7 2700X. I got the board for very little money and I was wondering if it would be a good idea. I'm not going to overclock the CPU, just leave it as it is. I might even get a better board if necesary later on.
yeah sure it supports the chip and as long as your OC expectations are kept in check you will be pleasantly surprised .
the model i am looking at has a heatsink so can i go with it? i was pairing it with 3700X and wont be overclocking
should be okay
the heatsink version is better than this version R4.0
Will this mobo a r5 3600 and a gtx 1660ti with 16 gb of ram give me at least 60 frames in games?
maybe. depends on the games and resolution but most likely at 1080p
@@mikesunboxing yeah 1080p is all im looking for i just wanna be able to play warzone at like medium settings. Nothing too fancy i just want it to work decent.
I have a Ryzen 1600 AF and a gtx 1660 super. And I get above 60fps on warzone on high settings. My ram runs at 3000mhz. I'm happy with this build does well. My build would be weaker than yours
Hello friend, if I put a Ryzen 5 3600 on it, will it not affect me at all?
will be fine
Trying to figure out if this motherboadrd is compatible with valve index, I've recenlty been having issues with my usb and looking for a replacement
sorry i have had no experience with the index so can't really advise
Sir, can you tell me the low graphics card that works on the motherboard low price graphic card
gtx970 is about the lowest i would go
@@mikesunboxing thank you
Hi mike, loved the video. Do you know if the mobo supports dual channel ram?
yes it does and thanks for watching
Just wondering, I’m going to use this board with a chassis that comes with 3 fans, will the 3 be able to connect to this board?
you will need a splitter or fan hub really - join us on discord if you want some options
I am thinking of pairing a GTX 1650 and R5 3600 with this motherboard .
Can you suggest a budget case for this build
the thermaltake S100 in black or white, it is currently on sale at Scan UK tidd.ly/3ZGh3MZ
I can buy some parts from CCL here in the UK. Avp Kolus case, Asrock B450m HDV and a 500w Be Quiet System Power 9 psu for a total of £132. I can't afford much else due to being furloughed from my job. Is this a good deal or should I wait?
seems okay
does this motherboard support overclocking? i heard b450 chipset motherboards support overclocking
A320 doesn’t support it b350 and b450 are okay
Asrock website does not list qvl memory for Matisse cpu, specifically r5 3600x. What memory will work best?
This comment was answered in our LIVE STREAM: LIVE Q&A Motherboard Compatibility RGB Lighting,GPU's And Probably Airpods ruclips.net/video/XDdtvBxASWA/видео.html Approx 43:00
I bought this MB along with a Ryzen 1600 AF.
I also have 16G (2×8) RAM and a case with 4 fans.
I'm going to get a 250G SSD.
and a 550w power supply.
Not too sure about a graphics card roght now.
They are too expensive right now
Plus I'm new to PC building.
Any tips that can help me on my PC journey?

My ryzen 2600 only get 1097cb from cinebench r15 using this motherboard,. Vcore drop to 0,976v and CPU core speed drop to 3,1 Ghz while benchmarking cinebench r15. Default bios settings, no OC.. Is there something wrong with my system? or is this the maximum i can get with this motherboard? Thanks

Do you know if it supports LEDs? If not is there a way to do it? Great Video btw! :)
Not that I know of sorry they are no headers you will need a separate rgb controller like the sahara pirate sync i reviewed

Hi Friend, I am building a PC for the first time in my life. Do you think if I will buy the board sometime this week it will come with a pre updated bios to support 3000 ryzen ?
the first batch yes but not 3100 or 3300x
@@mikesunboxing What about the 3400G ?
I have this one with the ryzen 3 3100, and it is an amazing combination for the price!
sounds good to me
yeah, i have it with a ryzen 5 3600xt and its been rock solid and extremely stable. if you dont need the frills this is a great board
Bro bios update kiya kya???? Reply please🇮🇳🇮🇳
@@mikesunboxing I have this board and a Ryzen 3 2200. Bought all the components maybe three years ago. It's December 2022 now. Was considering buying a Ryzen 5 before I got started. Is just going to be an internet maching.
@GamerZone do i need to bios update to run 3 3100 on this board.
what is the highest overclock you would do or what motherboard would u suggest for overclocking keep in mind my case is a microatx so it would have to be a microatx
impossible question to answer with such limited information. Overclocking depends on many factors including silicon quality , decent power delivery ambient temps etc etc.
Mike, does this board support RGB FAN CONTROLL?? I have some Raidmax fan controller and 5x case fan RGB but dont know will it work. Please help, buy or not buy!?
no rgb control on this board
@@mikesunboxing OK... i got Raidmax Fan controller and buy 5 Falcon RGB fans.... can it work together on this board?
I bought the B450 HDV 4.0 board with 3400G package. but after assembling, I did not get display. I called the seller and he says I need to update bios with an older cpu? Is that right? This version should work with 3400g right away. Also, I do not see a sticker on the bios chip, and it looks like it was taken off. I am thinking of sending it back.
yes it needs version p3.20 or higher which is the second release from the stock BIOS
This worked for me but something you can do is Remove the CMOS battery for a bout 10 seconds and just place it back in and it should work.
HugoNoWhere good point
@@HugoNoWhereOfficial What will that do exactly?
@@mikesunboxing In the meantime,I contacted Asrock. They told me if there is no sticker on the bios chip, then they have already updated with the latest bios and should work with 3400g, and I should send it back to the seller if it does not. So I am shipping it back today. Someoen also told me that 3400g has also compatibility issues with many DDR4s. is that correct?
Hi there, this is a really good review, so on point, make me consider buying hdv (non r.40) board cuz of its better in that list but still price matters, r4.0 must be a bit cheaper?
If i need m.2 x4 pcie slot, support zen3/ryzen 5000, and maybe just a little bit oc (though i might not oc the cpu) is this board the best cheapest board? I am going to buy ryzen 5 3600 cuz of my tight budget right now, maybe in a couple years will upgrade to ryzen 5 5600 or higher...(ofc non X cuz i am afraid my current psu can't supply enough power)
i would maybe consider a newer b550 the prices seem to have come down rather nicely and something like the MSI B550 pro a or vdh pro wifi will suit that setup and have good enough VRM for future overclocking
Hi bro, good review, i have question for you, which of these 3 motherboards will be the best for ryzen 5 3600, msi b450m a pro max, asrock b450m r.4.0 or asrock a520m hdv? If there are better motherboards in this budget, you can mention them.
aim for the gigabyte b550 gaming x or the msi b550 gaming plus, they should be in a similar price range but much better choices
Are there 3 fan headers (including cpu) and how many rgb headers
no rgb headers on this board sorry
Buongiorno e grazie. Do I need upgrade BIOS before install CPU AMD ryzen 3 3200G?
depends on what sticker is on the bios chip. All new stock will have the BIOS already so just make sure you are buying from a busy shop and you should be fine

Is there different between asrock pro4 and this motherboard and does asrock pro4 support ryzen 5 3600 cpu
pro4 has better cooling and RGB support both support 3600

Hi im a newbie at building and this asrock b450m is in my list and my processor is ryzen 5 1500x with 16gb ram and 650watts power supply it an really low budget gaming pc will i be able to enjoy my gaming expitience in this set or should i change it thank you so much in advance for you answer
P.s
My graphic card is amd radeon 5450 1024 cause im still looking for a grwphic card 😁
it will depend on the graphics card you end up using but yes that will be able to game at lowered settings
@@mikesunboxing thank you i have msi geforce gt 1030 aero itx and change my motherboard is change to msi b450-a pro max with the same r5 1500x will it work?
Good day Mike, great video! Would I be able to overclock my r5 2600 to 4.0 ghz using this mobo? Keeping in mind I've bought a new cooler for this new setup (Deepcool Gammax 400). Would using a better cooler such as the Gammax help the mobo deal with the temp loads and potentially run at 4.0 ghz?
Yes it will it the cooling is good and there is good airflow and obviously the silicon lottery is a factor 4ghz all core might be tough but it does rely on all the other components
@@mikesunboxing thank you for your response!
Looking forward into buying this mobo for my ryzen 5 3600x + gtx 750ti (using some hardware that I have left), any opinion? I want to make it as cheap as possible, the other option is Gigabyte B450M K AMD B450 SKAM4 (5€ more)
they are all about the same really, should be fine but limited to PCIe gen 3 speeds
I want to install some vrm heat sinks but I don’t know exactly where to put them. How many would I need for this board? And would it do anything for thermals like make the board cooler?
the VRM are the small chips near the square raised chokes on the board
Mike's unboxing, reviews and how to are they in between the squares and how many are there?
How much maximum capacity and speed of RAM that can install in this Motherboard?
64GB
@@mikesunboxing Not true.I have this mobo with Ryzen 3 3200g and it's 32GB and @oppo aristo up to 3200Mhz(OC).
Got this couple months ago for $65 plus the 1600 AF for $85 and vega 56 on ebay for $180. Coming from fx 6300 and r9 380 im happy lol
I bet that was quite the upgrade
love the video ! but i was hoping you could possibly answer my question i recently bought this board off offerup and the last cpu it was paired with was a ryzen 5 2600 if i add my ryzen 5 3600 will there be an issue with it ? or will i have to update bios
no idea sorry, i would hope it is ready to go the 3600 is about a year old now
I need this model as I see it offers drivers for win 7 (cannot use another win, personal work reasons) but I am not sure if it needs bios update for a 4600G?
4600g won't be able to use in windows 7, no drivers for the GPU
if i ever plan to upgrade to the Ryzen 7 5800X3D then would it be possible? like the 4-pin cpu power connector can provide upto 129W and the Ryzen 7 at peak needs 105W. I initially thought of a Ryzen 9 5900X but its too close to the max limit (127W). Currently I would be using a Ryzen 7 2700X.
it will be missing out on a lot of the benefits of the processor like PCIe gen 4 support but should work but the VRMs won't like heavy loads
@@mikesunboxing thanks man i switched to the MSI B450 PRO-VDH MAX
@@truesyner2009 you would probably be better served with a B550 chipset if the budget allows, they will in general have a much better VRM solution as well as PCie gen 4 support
@@mikesunboxing nah man, u talking bout budget, im limited to $487 and im trying to get maximum performance. My budget can only afford a B450 and I don really wanna purchase a used motherboard (bad past experience).
Trying to build a PC with this board and a 3200g but there's no fan spin or anything. Do I need a Ryzen 2 to update BIOs before I install the 3200?
You might do depending how old the board is. Look on the bios chip it will have a sticker with the bios version on it. Then check that with the cpu compatibility chart and see if you have a match although the fans should at least spin?
So no Overclocking with an r5 3600 should be good right ? No issues ? I know u said the vrms are bad but I probably won’t
Even a small overclock will be okay on this just don’t push it too hard
I get you I just don’t know much about Overclocking so I won’t I just wanted to make sure this board is good for regular use
Where are the drivers for the motherboard? I am looking to buy this since this is the best one and most compatible with my build
