Card in question is Rx 550 (https://www.asus.com/us/Graphics-Cards/AREZ-PH-RX550-2G/)
I saw here on the forums one guy complained that his gtx1050ti didnt work on his mobo cause it was an pci-e 3.0 and a55f is a mobo with pci-e 2.1 slot. I know that there wont be any problem fitting in cause it has an x16 slot but im wondering will there be any issue cause of the mobo.

[Edit]
Bios

Version 4.6.5 - AMD AGESA LianoPI v1.1.0.4

The PCIe slot (2.0 vs 3.0) won't be the difference between 'working' or not.... but BIOS support may.

Not 100% sure on that specific board, but of the era (2011-12), it should work. The fact it's an ECS board though, could be the issue.
