ASRock B850 Steel Legend WiFi AMD AM5 Motherboard Review


Today we are testing the new AMD B850 AM5 motherboard from ASRock on OCinside.de. The ASRock B850 Steel Legend WiFi offers a reasonable number of PCIe slots, M.2 slots and USB ports paired with some useful comfort features. It supports all previously released desktop Ryzen processors of the 7000, 8000 and 9000 series and thanks to PCIe 5.0 it is even fully compatible with the new RTX 5090 graphics card from NVidia. On top of that, there is also a Wi-Fi 7 module and the price is even reasonable by AM5 standards!

Our following test report reveals whether this all sounds far too good to be true. We hope you enjoy reading the new review.

The delivery of the B850 Steel Legend WiFi …

The B850 Steel Legend WiFi comes in a beautifully printed, functional box, which presents the brightly designed mainboard on the front.

On the back, we see a comprehensive list of the most important features and equipment characteristics.

The mainboard wrapped in anti-static foil and a small box with the WiFi antennas are concealed under the lid. Fortunately, unnecessary plastic elements and foam have been dispensed with.

This is included in the delivery package …

In addition to the mainboard and the WiFi antennas, two SATA cables, two Velcro straps and a thermal sensor are also included in the scope of delivery.

Of course, a quick guide describing the installation of the most important PC components is also included. A direct QR code with a link to the complete operating instructions would have been great. But at least the QR code on the box leads to the corresponding product page at ASRock, where you can quickly access the manual as a PDF download.
