Hi everyone,

 

I have mobo asrock b550m pro4 i was wondering what mobo would be good to swap it to an atx size mobo i was considering asrock b550 extreme4,  or b550 taichi have anyone maybe some better example or better bord to sugest ? My problem  is i need 3x usb 2.0  my bord has 2 thats one of the reasons i am swaping it

 

Sincerely 

Radek

It would be far cheaper to add a USB PCIE card if you can fit it in your machine.

Do you need another USB controller, or just more ports?

Just more ports actually i mean i wanted to change board cuz i have big tower case, i have nzxt hub for rgb connected to port and to onother pump or rgb from nzxt kraken x63 , and i am missing one more port for smth else ... i forgot what but i think it was also smth with rgb ... anyways tought if i have already big case i could always swap it to atx instead what i have but if i compare other bords with mine it looks like mine bord is quiet good and i can't find anything similar or a bit better except bords for more than 300e like msi unify or msi carbon wifi so i decided to go with same branding that's why i choose the extreme4 or taichi which are below 200e i am not really overclocker so don't need smt super .... in future i tought also to upgrade cpu from r7 5800x to r7 5800x3d

Except that the pro4 can absolutely handle that CPU. You gonna be better off with an internal hub or as @TylerD321 points out, a pcie USB carrier board.
