AM4 Micro-ATX for Ryzen Builds

The MSI B550M PRO-VDH is a Micro-ATX motherboard built around the AMD B550 chipset and AM4 socket. It supports Ryzen 5000, 4000 and 3000 series processors out of the box. The board targets mainstream system builders who need a compact foundation with modern connectivity.

Dual M.2 and 128 GB DDR4 Headroom

Four DDR4 slots accept up to 128 GB of memory in dual-channel mode. Storage options include one M.2 slot wired for PCIe 4.0 x4 and a second for PCIe 3.0 x4, plus four SATA 6 Gb/s ports with RAID 0, 1 and 10 support. The primary x16 slot runs at PCIe 4.0, while a second x16 slot operates at PCIe 3.0 and a third at PCIe 2.0. Two additional x1 slots round out expansion.

Steel Armour Slot and M.2 Shield Frozr

A reinforced PCIe x16 slot protects heavy graphics cards from bending and EMI. The M.2 Shield Frozr heatsink covers the primary M.2 drive to limit thermal throttling under sustained loads. Rear I/O supplies 2.5 GbE LAN, four USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, two USB 2.0 ports, HDMI, DisplayPort and VGA outputs, plus Realtek ALC892/897 audio jacks.

Questions about this item

Can I keep my current DDR4 memory when moving to this board?

The board provides four 288-pin DDR4 slots supporting up to 128 GB in dual-channel mode, so existing DDR4 modules can be reused.

How do I verify the PCIe 4.0 x16 slot is running at full speed after build?

In the BIOS or OS device manager, confirm the graphics card negotiates a Gen 4.0 x16 link; the Steel Armor slot is wired for PCIe 4.0.

What comes in the box and what must I source separately?

The motherboard includes the I/O shield, SATA cables and M.2 screws; you will need to supply a compatible AM4 processor, DDR4 memory, storage drives and a power supply.
