Hi,

 

Currently building a PC and need a mobo available currently that is likely to play nice with the next gen of ryzen cpus. Specifically, I am looking at the ASUS VII Hero and MSI Pro Carbon due to hearing the best about both. Would appreciate any input available on the topic, or any suggestions for other reasonably high end boards that are well made, user friendly, and good for overclocking. Thanks!!

Be aware that while Ryzen 3000 series will probably work on X470 boards, they will not use full potential. 2700X worked on first generation boards, but with limited turbo clock support. So, keep that in mind. Personally, I'd just wait for new generation and upgrade entirely then to new platform and new CPU.

I just watched the entire live stream, its am+4 so it will fit, but you may have better overclocking with a newer board designed for the new Ryzen Chips coming out in the middle of the year (or later) if its delayed. If you don't want to wait, just get one now, upgrade the chip later. It will fit if that was more or less your question!

Appreciate it but no I'm aware it will fit it, thank you. More interested in how much of a performance increase/decrease might result from using a current gen board vs an x570 model. Believe I will be going with a lower spec ATX board for now along with my 2600 until I can upgrade to a 3700x or 3850x and x570 board later this year.

Whats the current VRM phases you are looking at then? No specs on any new motherboards have been leaked about increased VRM's other than the new EVGA Dark and that has 18 (possibly 16+2 or a full 18). Any board today with say 12+1 or 12+2 VRM's will play pretty nice with the new chipset, but they may come out with just massive overclocking boards in half a year considering the EVGA Dark is already here essentially.

Ryzen gen 2 will be released on AM4 socket.

So was Ryzen 2000, but it didn't run at full potential on first gen motherboards that were for Ryzen 1000 series.
