  • CPU TypeRyzen 5000 Series
  • 6-core Ryzen 5 5500 delivers responsive multitasking at 65 W TDP
  • DDR4 memory support up to 4800 MHz OC for faster data throughput
  • B550 chipset provides a stable platform for Ryzen 5000 series processors
  • Micro ATX form factor fits compact builds without sacrificing core features
  • Integrated Wi-Fi enables wireless connectivity straight out of the box

AM4 micro-ATX board and 65 W Ryzen 5 5500 combo

This bundle pairs an ASUS TUF GAMING B550M-PLUS WIFI II motherboard with an AMD Ryzen 5 5500 processor. The board uses the AM4 socket in a micro-ATX layout. The CPU delivers six cores with a 65 W TDP and no integrated graphics. Together they form a ready-to-install platform for AMD Ryzen 5000 series builds.

Suits builders wanting a compact AM4 system

The micro-ATX form factor fits smaller cases while the B550 chipset handles current Ryzen 5000 series CPUs. Onboard wireless simplifies cable routing. Buyers needing more than four memory slots or a larger ATX feature set should consider other form factors. Systems requiring integrated graphics must add a discrete card because the 5500 lacks one.

DDR4 support up to 4800 MT/s with overclocking

The motherboard validates a wide range of DDR4 speeds from 2133 to 3200 MT/s natively. Overclocked profiles extend the list through 3333, 3466, 3600, 3733, 3866, 4000, 4133, 4266, 4400, 4466, 4600 and 4800 MT/s. ECC memory operates in ECC mode depending on the installed CPU. Match your memory kit to these ratified speeds for stable operation.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Ryzen 5 5500 into the AM4 socket on this board?

Lift the socket lever, align the gold triangle on the CPU with the socket corner, place the chip gently without force, lower the lever until it clicks, then attach the cooler using the supplied backplate and screws.

What maintenance will the Ryzen 5 5500 and B550 board need later?

Reapply thermal paste on the CPU every few years, clean dust from the VRM heatsinks and chipset fan with compressed air, and update the BIOS when new AGESA versions add memory stability fixes.

What limit appears first when the Ryzen 5 5500 runs sustained loads at 65W?

The 65W power envelope caps all-core boost clocks; VRM temperatures on the B550 heatsinks become the next bottleneck before any memory speed ceiling is reached.
