If I recall, MSI made the best B450 type motherboards back in the day, but if you plan on using a 3rd gen Ryzen on it, make sure you update the Bios, as they might not have 3rd gen Ryzen Support right out of the box. Only a few rare occasions where the Motherboard would have updated bios to fix issues with 3rd Gen Support.

Carbon AC is a better option, not much to debate.

You dont need such an expensive board. If you really wanted an expensive board why wouldnt you get an x570 board?
