ANT VALUE B450MAD4-N DDR4 AMD Motherboard

The ANT Value B450MAD4-N is a Micro-ATX form factor motherboard built around the AMD B450 chipset with an AM4 socket, making it compatible with AMD Ryzen and Athlon series processors. It is a cost-conscious option for users looking to build or upgrade an AMD-based desktop PC without compromising on essential features. On the memory side, the board accepts DDR4 RAM with support for speeds up to 3600 MHz, giving builders flexibility to choose modules that suit their performance and budget requirements. Storage options are covered by an M.2 slot operating on PCIe 3.0 x4 for NVMe SSDs, alongside SATA III 6 Gb/s ports for traditional drives, providing a practical mix of fast and high-capacity storage paths. Connectivity is handled through six USB ports on the rear panel, two of which operate at USB 3.0 speeds, catering to a range of peripherals such as keyboards, mice, external drives, and headsets. Networking is provided via an RJ-45 Ethernet port rated at 100 Mbps. For display output, the board includes both a VGA port and an HDMI port, enabling dual-monitor setups or simple single-display configurations when using a CPU with integrated graphics. Expansion is supported by a single PCIe x16 slot, which accommodates a discrete graphics card. The board's power delivery section incorporates ferrite chokes and Japanese-brand capacitors, which the manufacturer states are intended to reduce voltage ripple for stable CPU operation. ANT Value covers this motherboard with a one-year warranty from the date of purchase. — Verified Specifications — Model: B450MAD4-N | Chipset: AMD B450 | CPU Socket: AM4 | CPU Compatibility: AMD Ryzen and Athlon Series | Memory: DDR4 up to 3600 MHz | Expansion Slots: 1× PCIe x16 | Storage: M.2 (PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe) + SATA III 6 Gb/s | USB Ports: 6 total (2× USB 3.0) | LAN: RJ-45, 100 Mbps | Display Output: 1× VGA, 1× HDMI | Warranty: 1 Year
