Ryzen overclock motherboard?

[Zihanouk]

Basically I'm going to get a ryzen 7 or 9 (3rd gen) and trying to overclock it as much as possible. I don't need pcie gen 4 and my budget is under $180.

Is that $180 exclusively for the motherboard, or are you expecting to get any modern CPU+motherboard for under $200?

$180 just for the motherboard (I'm thinking x470)

Well, considering that overclocking isn't a strong suit for any AMD chip, (they come from the factory with PBO which gets you within 1% of the performance of the tweaked to precision manual overclocks, and no stability issues to boot) any X470 with heatsinks on the VRMs should do the trick. Thing is, you can get decent X570 motherboards for under $180, and they'll handle the overclocking great.

Asus Prime-P X570 and Prime Pro seems to be popular, well priced and decent. And the BIOS is well liked by users.

you wanted cheap. And, the Prime-P is cheap, without looking cheap and without serious cost cuttings, compromised performance... Low-end X570 on the Asus lineup, yes. But pretty decent& great value board
