    What is the purpose of getting a new board? You are better off spending that money on a newer CPU, maybe a 1600AF.

    ive actually built a system just like this one before. it does not have an iGPU so its a bit more difficult to diagnose without an extra GPU on hand. as far as the codes go this motherboard is far to cheap to have a code screen however they do have a EZ Debug led. next time this problem occurs take a look here and it should tell you which portion of your system isnt working properly

    another thing you could do is resetting the bios ( Load Optimized Defaults ) assuming you can get inside of the bios. or you could reset your cmos you could do this by shorting two pins together or more easily removing the cmos battery for a couple minutes with the power supply switch at the back switched to off.

    Yeah fair play. Go 3600 rather than 2700 would be my advice. Most games will benefit from the faster single thread performance of zen2 over the extra cores of a 2700.
     
    And dont worry about the BIOS, its only "beta" beacuse its not officially supported by AMD. If it was actually bad or dodgy in any way, it wouldnt be on the manufactuers website as a public release.

    I guess the question is where are you noticing a lack of performance?
     
    The GPU will definately be holding you back in games, and the CPU might holding you back in creative work.
     
    so which is annoying you more?

    I ran an rx580 with a 2200g (basically the same CPU but with an iGPU) and basically didnt get bottle necked (thats a 1060 6gb on nvidia side for performance equivalent) so id definately vote you upgrade the GPU, and then id wait for zen3 for CPU upgrades (even if you only upgrade to zen2 at that point cause the used price drops)
    the other stick of ram will also more noticeable than CPU for now.

    I guess I will buy extra 8 gig and wait for zen 3. I will also try to find a used 2700. Thanks guys for answering my question it really helps.

    budget zen 3 will be even a few month later than main stream 4600 ( i suppose)
    and your b350 may not support it.
     
    used 2700 shall be a great deal for you

    Get an extra 8 gig stick and save up more 
    And wait for zen 3.

    If you can only get one, the 1070 will make quite a significant difference in gaming. You may be better waiting for the next GPU launches. They'll probably be out of your price range but they're maybe better pricing on last gen parts or more options on the used market

    What's your budget exactly ? 
    Just get an extra 8 gig dimm and if you can live with what you've got now 
    Save up more and wait for zen 3

    I'd probably do both the GPU and RAM, if you can; otherwise, just the GPU.
    And if you go CPU, be aware that Zen 2 is the 3600/3700, not 2600/2700 (those are Zen+).

    I say GPU first if you are actively gaming, however i would look for the 16 or 20 series gpu's.
