AMD danas na tržište uvodi nove Ryzen procesore druge generacije i novu platformu za njih. Ryzeni su nešto slabiji od prvotno predstavljenih sedmica i petica, pa je i platforma nešto drugačija te nosi naziv B450. Nama su na test iz Asusa stigle dvije ploče bazirane na ovoj platformi, a danas donosimo test prve – ROG STRIX B450-F Gaming. Za razliku od ploča sa slabijim Intelovim čipsetima, ova s pravom može nositi svoje ime jer podržava overclocking, a i svi su AMD-ovi procesori kao što znamo otključanih množitelja. Ploča donosi zanimljiv dizajn, vrlo dobru kvalitetu izrade i solidnu količinu opreme.

Kako to priliči uz Strix ploču, i bundle je malo puniji, šareniji. Osim dva puta po dva SATA kabela, tu su i vijci za M.2, plastične vezice za aranžiranje kabela, produžni kabel za RGB LED trake, set ROG naljepnica, vješalica za kvaku vrata, medij s upravljačkim programima i aplikacijama, debela knjižica s uputstvima i zahvalnica za kupovinu proizvoda.

B450-F Gaming ploču možemo promatrati kao manju sestricu X470-F Gaming ploče koju smo testirali nedavno. Izgledom su gotovo pa identične, a ni glavna oprema im se ne razlikuje znatno. Ipak, razlike postoje. B450 ima slabiju napojnu jedinicu, nema interni USB 3.1 konektor, donji je M.2 socket drugačije orijentiran, gornji nema pasivni hladnjak, a i jedan je RGB LED element manje. Sve što smo napisali za izgled jače ploče vrijedi i za ovu – jednostavna, neupadljiva i elegantna. Kvaliteta izrade je ista i naravno na vrlo visokom nivou.

Raspored elemenata (layout), je na obje ploče vrlo sličan. Primjetne razlike su drugačija orijentacija donjeg M.2 socketa kako bi se dobila kompatibilnost sa 110-milimetarskim uređajima, jer je gornji M.2 skraćen zbog prvog PCIe x1 utora kojeg na X470 ploči nema. Na ovoj su ploči odlučili povećati upotrebljivost PCIe x1 utora premještanjem iznad x16 socketa. Na X470 je neupotrebljiv jer ga prekrije grafika. Ostatak rasporeda je identičan i zapravo vrlo dobar. Stražnji I/O utori imaju plastični pokrov, a i zaštita je integrirana. Za razliku od X470 koja ima dva svjetleća elementa na pokrovu – ROG logo i traku, ova ploča ima osvijetljen samo ROG logo.
