NZXT’s first AMD motherboard is the N7 B550. Just like the Intel variations that preceded it, the N7 B550 has a slick design with the choice of both a black or white shroud that covers the majority of the board itself. Little doubt NZXT hopes the motherboard’s clear look will make it an interesting choice for anybody with a windowed PC case like NZXT’s personal H collection instances.
Past its seems to be, the N7 B550 seems to supply very succesful efficiency if a overview from Tom’s {Hardware} is something to go by. Designed in collaboration with established motherboard producer ASRock, the motherboard makes use of the B550 chipset which works with each AMD Ryzen 3000- and 5000-series CPUs and presents PCIe 4.0 help. Built-in fan and RGB controllers imply the elements might be managed by means of NZXT’s Cam software program.
When it comes to connectivity, there’s a powerful 10 USB ports out there on the rear of the motherboard, together with a USB Sort-C port, and two M.2 slots for NVMe storage. Wi-fi connectivity contains help for Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2. Take a look at the overview from Tom’s {Hardware} for a full spec and efficiency rundown.
It’s a stable debut for an organization that’s sometimes higher recognized for its PC instances and CPU coolers, though its status was dented earlier this yr when it needed to recall one PC case over hearth security issues. The N7 B550 is offered now for $229.99.
