Will this motherbord support ryzen 3600x out of the box

Just now, LukeSavenije said:

it will

 

but i don't see why you should pair those two together

Had bad luck flashing the bios onto a b450 so I have a dead system sometimes posted sometimes didn't so I returned it and getting a bord that will support it out the box dont care how overkill

Like stated that would be too much motherboard for too little CPU.

 

Also R5 3600X doesn't make sense unless you're buying it for the stock cooler since the R5 3600 is the same processor.

I 100% agree with this, 3600 and 3600x are indeed the same processor. Online reviewers are getting the EXACT same boosted mhz with them when they use the same good aftermarket cooler on them

 

I'll go further to say that the 3600x isn't worth it because the stock cooler, although better than the one that comes with the 3600, really isn't that good if you want to max PBO. 

 

My recommendation is to go 3600 and buy a decent $30-40 cooler like an Arctic Freezer eSports 34. In the end, it is STILL cheaper going this route than buying 3600x

which one did you get? MSI Tomahawk? Alot of people having issues with this one.

 

I've built 2 new ryzen systems (3600 and 3700x) on the MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC and it is rock solid with Bios version 18

 

But if you don't want the headaches of bios flashing and praying, I'd just get the X570. It is much more hassle free. The ASUS TUF Plus X570 you listed above is a great choice...it is probably the best price/performance/feature set of any X570 at the mid tier

yea, if I was to do it over again, I'd probably just buy the X570. I probably wasted 2 days bios flashing, trouble shooting at the beginning. I was a very early adopter and MSI just didn't have a stable bios out yet....but like I said earlier, since Bios Version 18, both my 3600 and 3700x are running rock solid. 

 

Actually, even on Bios ver 17, it was very stable...my only issue with both systems was that it would have trouble booting. It would take multiple tries to boot the computer, but once booted, it was great. This was resolved in version 18.
