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..
 
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
 
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.

MSI B550M-A PRO ProSeries Motherboard (Support 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen, AM4, DDR4, PCIe 4.0, SATA 6Gb/s, M.2, USB 3.2 Gen 1, DVI/HDMI, Micro-ATX),Black https://amzn.in/d/cNO55gy
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?

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..

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 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..

After finishing, pic taken within 1 min..

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 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
- 512x512
- sdxl 1024x1024
- sdxl 1620x1220
- sdxl 1024x1024 normal latent upscale by 1.5x , 2x then feed it to ksampler
- sdxl 1024x1024 passed through 3 ksamplers
- sdxl 1024x1024 passed through 2 ksamplers then upscale by 1.5x then passed through third ksampler
- sdxl + 9 lora/dora/embendings/lycoris 1024x1024 passed through 3 ksamplers
- sdxl + 9 lora/dora/embendings/lycoris 1024x1024 passed through 2 ksamplers then upscale by 1.5x then passed through third ksampler
- flux 1600x1200

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!
