ASRock A520M-HVS Micro-ATX AM4 Motherboard – 2× DDR4, HDMI + VGA, Ultra M.2 (Gen3 x4), 4× SATA3

Summary: The ASRock A520M-HVS is a compact micro-ATX motherboard for AMD AM4 CPUs, supporting Ryzen 3000/3000G, 4000G, 5000 and 5000G series processors. It offers a practical upgrade path for value gaming and everyday PCs with a 6-phase power design, 2× DDR4 slots (up to 64GB), Ultra M.2 (PCIe Gen3 x4 + SATA), 4× SATA3, and flexible display outputs via HDMI + VGA (D-Sub).

Build a reliable, affordable AM4 PC with the A520M-HVS. It’s ideal for home/office systems, budget gaming builds, or compact upgrades where you want modern essentials: an NVMe-capable M.2 slot for fast boot times, plenty of USB ports, and a full-length PCIe x16 slot for a dedicated graphics card. If you’re using an AMD APU (with integrated graphics), you can run displays directly from the board’s HDMI/VGA outputs.

Compatibility notes 

• No Wi-Fi built in: add a PCIe Wi-Fi card or USB Wi-Fi adapter if needed.
• Display outputs need an APU: HDMI/VGA only work if your CPU has integrated graphics (an AMD APU). If you use a standard Ryzen CPU without iGPU, you’ll need a graphics card.
• Memory speeds depend on CPU: “DDR4 4733+ (OC)” is overclocked support and varies by CPU/kit.
