I discovered this motherboard on the Facebook marketplace—it claims to be a B450 Aorus Elite V2. The listing says it boots and functions properly, though it only works about 80% of the time. Occasionally the PC resets itself and the screen goes black. I’m not sure what’s causing the problem, so I hope someone can help me get it working again. He’s offering $55 CAD, but if it’s completely unusable, I’d appreciate any advice. I’ve attached some photos of the listing. Any additional information would be really helpful!

If you're unsure, avoid making the purchase. The images don't seem to show any clear issues, which means you'll need to spend a lot of time figuring things out. The savings you'd gain aren't worth the effort of pulling out your hair if you can't solve it quickly.

Alright, we've discussed it. That amount of $55 could be allocated to a fully operational board.
