Better B450 to pick.

Hi guys, 

 

Firstly if this question has been asked a lot my apologies, kinda new to the forums and I appreciate all your help. That said, I am building my first gaming rig ever and planning to buy a Ryzen 3600 since I might do light streaming. 

I kindly ask for your suggestions in picking the right motherboard, my 2 top choices is the MSI B450 Tomahawk MAX and MSI B450 Gaming pro carbon AC. 

 

I can see now that some B450 pro carbon boards are shipped Ryzen 3000 ready but is still hesitant since I might still encounter some bios issues and I personally not tech savvy and might just do PBO for overclocking. 


Looking forward to your suggestion guys and I my thanks in advance.

I would say the B450 Steel Legend is a good option, but does not have flashback bios, which means you might need to check with the shop if it has the latest bios and if not if they can flash it for you. Worked for me :)

That's what I went with, I picked it for how it looks but bios wise, the b450 tomahawk max is way better. If I were to redo my pick, I'd pick tomahawk instead
