MSI B550M Pro-Vdh WiFi Ddr4, M.2, USB 3.2 Gen 1, Front Type-C, Wi-Fi, Hdmi, Micro ATX Gaming Motherboard AMD Ryzen 5000 Series Desktop Processors
I am currently rocking 5600 on a320m board, willing to upgrade in future to 5900x or 5950x? Is this motherboard worth it? If not please suggest me one..
it is worth it @ budget level
Is it any better to invest in expensive level motherboard for am4?
that will support the suggested cpu s but the question is for what purpose you wanna use those cpu for? If i am suggesting go for x 500 series or B 600 series which is similar in price right now
I dont think b600 series will support am4 also x500 series is still overpriced
Yes it will support it, but don’t overclock it. In fact you can undervolt it even further
I love undervolting.. that will enough for me. Overclock isnt worth it.
How about this board? Can i save money still have the basic features, no wifi and all.

Or should I keep using my msi a320m pro v/d s v2 motherboard with my r5 5600 ?
No, this board is too basic. It doesn’t have any VRM heatsinks and only 4-pin power. The last one is good enough BUT AMAZON IS OVERPRICED.
I suggest buying from MD computers. It’s very trusted. You can consider any of the below -

You mean a550m-a pro dont have vrm heatsink?..
Surprisingly my vrms on my msi a320m stays cool with my 5600. Should i keep using it and save money? Or idk im very confused rn.. motherboard cost really didn’t came down since last 3 years
Yea a550m-a pro has no heatsinks. It’s enough for 5600 but not for 5900x. If your vrm overheat then your performance will throttle and you won’t be able to get the full performance
I have used mdcomputers i bought razer mouse from there. Good price
See, i just bought brand new 5600 at December. Upgrading my old ryzen 3 2200g on msi a320m board. Now 5600 runs fairly well benchmark is really good, vrm is not overheating, supports my rtx 3060 12gb.
I was only looking to upgrade due to it has no m.2 slot. But if the pricing is not good, i may probably be keep using a320m for next few years and after that move to next platform? What do you say, am i missing much?
If you bought 5600 then better keep using it for 2-3 years more then upgrade your gpu. Your processor can even run a 3080ti. Spend money on your gpu
I might suggest you not to upgrade your CPU to 5000 Series as there are severe shortage of AM4 Chipset motherboards and are available in very Few models. It will be better to upgrade your CPU to 7000 Series or 9000 Series and in AM5 Chipsets which will be Future proof and will provide better and more Performance..

I also bought brand new rtx 3060 12gb together with the cpu.. i am atleast keeping it for next 3 years. Stable diffusion/flux ai image generation works good .. thanks for your suggestion brother! Much help for curing my confusion, i will keep using a320m with these.
I am currently running a cinebench r23 30min test. Will post system temp result with you here after 24min..
Before 1 min of finishing time of 30min r23 test..
CPU is on slight undervolt of -50mv offset. Stock cooler, case fan: 3 70CFM front fan.. 40cfm 1 top fan and 1 rare. .. positive air pressure.
I already did, sorry
i need your help i want to buy a gpu too,
i need your help with the amount of time taken for img generation by 3060 12gb vram for below scenarios
and the amount of vram and ram occupied in below scenarios
if you need help with ai img generation you can ask me
512x512 takes 15-18seconds using flux dev model..
Upscaling the image takes around 1-2min.. ram usgae is above 25gb.. vram almost full most of the time so i dont think you have any other choice in budget or you go with 4070 12gb.. rn im not doing ai image generation, im busy playing god of war Ragnarok, 70-80fps at max settings 1440p dlss quality its a good budget card bro, most of the work you can atleast do it even a little slower.. make sure to undervolt power consumption 170 watts to 130watt max with 5% more free performance
Also in god of war Ragnarok, in this graphics settings vram usage easily goes above 8gb and its between 8100mb to 9000mb… I haven’t tried other games that use more vram than this
i see, i see, plz run those in ur free time. btw which software do you use for img generation?
i have data on T4 gpu img generation.
okay this! this would be very helpful for me too. also enjoy the game!
I would try to stay with 5600 as long as possible. Before you upgrade to a 5900x, do check out am5 options too.
If the price difference is within 10-20k of a relatively newer 8 core+ am5 cpu you would want to go am5 instead and sell old parts.
the performance is only slightly better with AM5 cpus as of now, unless there is a 10K series comes out with high colours, its better to stick to AM4 and 5900x will be a good upgrade, i am totally upset and disappointed
with 9600x and 7600x given the clock speed with DDR5 RAM, their performance is just 10 FPS different from 5600x, the investment vs PERFORMANCE ratio is below par against the expectation… i would say 5800x3D is still a great upgrade
If the only component that needed an upgrade was the CPU, this would be a reasonable decision. As you mentioned, the performance gains from upgrading to a 9600X or 7600 are minimal.
However, spending around â‚ą32,000 on a new motherboard and CPU for such small improvements seems like a waste at this stage. If productivity is a factor, the extra cores of the 5900X might be useful, but that depends on the specific use case.
If gaming is the primary focus, I would recommend holding onto the 5600 until the 10-series CPUs are released. Or better yet, a GPU upgrade will bring about far better performance for the price.
