Motherboard for Ryzen 9 5900x

FrankTT

Switched from Intel to AMD and need help choosing a motherboard. I been doing some research on them but still not 100 percent on which motherboard I should get. The two I know, b550 and x570, work but still don't know the difference. Not looking to spend too much since all I'm doing is gaming. Also trying to make a white theme build

• ASUS: X570 TUF Gaming Plus,  B550-F ROG Strix, X570-P Prime

I would go for Asus or MSI. The other brands suck especially gigabyte. Gigabyte motherboards are nothing but trouble.  As for Motherboard choice the Asus TUF X570 offers the best value for the money as it has Pice 4.0 on all slots for a moderate price of around $190
