## Description

ASRock B450M Steel Legend Socket AM4/ AMD 3rd Generation Ryzen B450/ DDR4/ Quad CrossFireX/ SATA3&USB3.1/ M.2/ A&GbE/MicroATX Motherboard

Review: Totally worth it - Bought this motherboard as a replacement for a old asus a320m-k and I am impressed at the quality and looks for the price. It's definitely worth it. The VRM have large heatsinks and has every essential placed sensibly. Can't say much about it but everything is as expected or better.
Review: The Bios - ASROCK Steel Legend. (desertcart) Ryzen 5 3500 (Other Vendor) RAM 16gb 3000Mhz (desertcart) Inno3d Geforce GTX 1060 6gb (desertcart) Cooler Master 600V Power Supply(Must for the GPU and all RGB Fans) *Inform seller to update BIOS and also specify your processor model. Using desertcart Chat Support. The packaging was excellent, delivery guy opened and checked the package before handing over. He maintained distance. The Motherboard was as promised, beautiful and the RGB looks superb. I was worried as this is my assembled Desktop after 12 years, last one was AMD phenom, and could not understand why the display didn't show bios boot up. I did notice the keyboard and mouse light up so there was nothing wrong with the motherboards. Turns out for My model of processor you need a graphics card for display, and voila.. once the graphics card was installed i saw the beautiful ASROCK logo boot up on the screen. Windows installation took ten minutes. I was playing games in an hour. Note : Make sure to get a good UPS for the CPU.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how many fan headers does this motherboard have?**
A: This board includes 3x chassis/water pump fan connectors, 1x CPU fan connector, and 1x CPU/water pump fan connector

**Q: Does this board support ryzen7 1700x ?**
A: Hi, I have the same MB B450M Steel legend and Processor 7 2700x. Can you please tell me what model/brand of memory RAM are you using on this MB and also the GPU graphic card model ? I have some issues with my GPU at the moment.  Thanks

**Q: do you need to make it work with a disk? because my case doesnt support disk and any way around this ?**
A: You should visit the manufacturer's website and search for this product.  In that product's support link, you can find the installation guide.  That ought to answer your questions about how to get it working.

If your concern is it might need a DVD drive, it should not.  Almost all new motherboards work with Windows 10 without any additional 3rd party drivers.  

Once Windows is installed, I'd recommend going to that same motherboard support page and download the manufacturer's drivers and most recent BIOS, in case their drivers are different than Microsoft's. Follow the directions to install those, and you'll be done with the motherboard installation.

**Q: Does it have a pcie x16 slot?**
A: Yes the first one which is metal

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Be careful. M.2_2 slot is a SATA M.2 slot. Not a PCIe NVMe M.2 slot.
*by M***N on 5 October 2025*

Product received on time. I'm no "The greatest technician that's ever lived" but the Installation was easy. Board quality is also good. mATX with 4 RAM slots for Dual Channel. Setting up boot device was a hassle as you have to manually set which drive has to be used to boot windows from. And if you ever get BSOD, you'll have to repeat it again. Most important thing: The M.2_2 slot (located at the bottom) is SATA M.2 SSD slot. If you have PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD, it'll not work. It won't show up in BIOS as well as in Disk Management. You'll need to purchase SATA M.2 (the one with M+B key) for that. Or you'll need the PCIe NVMe Adaptor to use PCIe x16 or x4 slot. If you are going to use M.2_2 slot, do not connect any HDD or SSD into SATA3_3. Currently giving 4 star for it. It deserves 3.5 at least. Not giving 5 because things were not mentioned clearly about the bottom M.2 Slot. Took two days to figure that out. I had to buy a separate SATA M.2 SSD and a PCIe x16 to M.2 Adaptor later.
