   I bought new Asrock b450m pro4 motherboard which strangely came with bios 3.80???
This was my first red flag that maybe this board is refurbished by Asrock, because 3.80 isn't available for download.
I have Ryzen 5 1600af which means CPU Alias Pinnacle Ridge and the main problem is the sata ahci performance with sata SSD drives, read is ok but write is terrible.
I have Kingston a400 240gb and read performance is equally around 520mb/s which is solid, but write is terrible around 40-80 but around 40mb/s respectively.

To disregard the fact that AMD decided to pull-off AMD ACHI sata driver and to leave people in the abyss with the sh*tty microsoft driver which is worst of the worst.

What to do should I RMA the motherboard?
Which BIOS to upload into the firmware?

Horror with the ASrock.
