tempered glass case my dude. that is why. also a more than 400 watt PSU so that you can actually buy some older high end GPUs in the future.

if he can verify with ebuyer that the X370 pro supports Zen+ or update it himself with a bootkit, then that will be the best choice. wouldn't go with the Kingston A400 tbh, since the MX500 is only 10 pounds more.

about the mx500 is a fair point

 

I'm generally not a big fan of the prime series, that's mostly why

you had some "meh" in comparison to what h requested. 

 

like 400 watt PSU. really? like i get somde budget uses, but you had money leftover. 

 

and grey and black mobo. 

yeah, there is a 500w version of it listed too, so that can be swapped

 

i mean... the only mobo that's actually white and any good is the bazooka arctic

the X370-Pro was a pretty good budget X370 board for it's time, for 80 pounds it's pretty hard to pass up.

i won't argue too hard with that

 

let's keep the option open for both then, as the b450 pro4 isn't bad either

Still not White though, hence the name 'Titanium'. 

 

The Tomahawk Arctic would have been a better option, but I don't think there is a B450 version.

I would just go with the B450 Tomahawk as that has a pretty neutral colour scheme.
