B450/x470 mobo

[Alex.lap89]

I have a white and black build but a terrible mother board, it was almost free with a bundle. So i will be changing it asap but my knowledge is lacking. 

 

Any recommendations? 200 dollars budget but wouldn't mind going cheaper haha.

The X470-f strix is mostly black and is a great board. I wouldn't sacrifice quality for color, though.. Some times you can find the X470 Taichi for less than $200, which is the best board in that price range.

 

The Asus X470-pro Prime is also black and white, but lacks a few features the strix has and isn't as good for overclocking.

I will look at the strix board and asrock, what's your take on mail b450 pro carbon?

what chip are you going to pair it with, are you going to be overclocking, etc.

That's one of the best B450 boards. It's honestly the only B450 I would get, other than the Tomahawk. You'll be perfectly fine with that board.
