Budget AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Motherboard

I'm trying to build a game PC that has good price/performance ratio.
So, I'm wondering if MSI B450 A Pro seems cheap and good enough to handle Ryzen 5 2600.
Can this board perform similar to the MSI B450 Tomahawk, both of them using 4+2 phase VRM.
It is very hard to find review about B450 A Pro. I only need to overclock Ryzen 5 2600 to 4Ghz.
Will MSI B450 A Pro do the job?

Yes it will it's almost identical to the Tomahawk.

Not an overclocker, but my MSI B450-A Pro has worked flawlessly for me.

B450 Aorus Pro do have a nice design but I've watched a review about it, the VRM got too hot among the competitors, maybe it is because a big plastic covering on it.

What is your daily clockspeed? Can you reach cpu boost stable on it?

Checking CPUID, I'm fluctuating between 2.6 and 3.7GHz on all six cores. I don't seem to have any problems reaching the boost speed of 3.9GHz as it's recorded as my Max value.

Glad to hear that from a direct user of the board.
