No one else besides reviewers got their b550 boards, let alone had them sent. I ordered a B550 and it claimed stock availability at launch. The scheduled release date moved forward to the 19th, and it hasn’t shipped yet. Newegg usually processes orders within 1-2 business days after release, but this has taken longer. It’s been a couple of days since release and still not shipped. I’m feeling misled because the site said it was ready for purchase. Anyone else experiencing the same issue?
I haven't purchased a B550 board myself, though a few ASUS and ASRock models have been delivered to my office already.
I purchased an ASRock board. Everyone had to place their preorder a long time ago.
I chose not to purchase it after reviewing the costs, yet I briefly checked a trusted supplier known for reliable stock data. They list certain B550 models as available, but all are priced at the higher end. The previously costly premium range is no longer an option.
I have one that should arrive Thursday 6/25, I am following the shipping online. Having said that, I can only pray it works. I have had the most unlucky time since Jan trying to upgrade, with 2 mobos working for a short time before fail, and about 8 that would not post! If there were an "Un-lottery ticket" I would be buying some. Each time the board would stop the POST process at the VGA light and (for those with) code 90. That video card (Radeon 480) would work fine prior to and after in my old system. I even burned money on a new XFX 5700XT but it did not fix my luck on the last 2 boards (same VGA light). Last couple boards were unavailable for replacement (covid dang it) and had to get different board. Have tried Asrock Extreme 4, ASUS x570E, even ASUS Hero, now purchased the B550 (Gaming F) both due to use AND due to price gouging from other available boards or no available boards. (all from Newegg btw) Wish me luck!
