I think MSI have a B550 Tomahawk in their upcoming lineup, so maybe that will be the better option for someone wanting a better value MSI board.

For sure that VRM is impressive for the price bracket. Does everyone need it - probably no.

anyway, the B550 Tomahawk is expensive also. I think the retail is set around $180 no doubt it will be £180 or more here.

If you were doing manual overclocking on say a 3900X/3950X it is always good to have a cooler running VRM, but yes for most it isn't a requirement.

I can't see why anyone would buy a B550 Tomahawk if was £180 or more. Just doesn't make any sense. I think £150 - £160 is more realistic. The B550-A Pro is supposedly $139 and is usually a touch cheaper than the Tomahawk.

Amazon USA got it listed at $179.99 I cannot imagine it is gonna be less that number in UK £. If you compare components in $ and £ it is often the same number or a higher number in £. Never less... :(. UK is propping up their profit margin.

stupidly expensive... it should be around £150 mark.
