My son wants a x570 motherboard for Christmas and intends to possibly upgrade to a 3900x or better in the future.  I need some help finding a board in the $200 or less range ( preferably less )  but still be nice and durable.  If at all possible, one with passive cooling on the chipset which doesn't seem to be an option right now

 

He has a 3700x on a ASUS b350 currently, a RTX 2080 and 16gb 3200 ram.  I am not stuck on ASUS, but I do like their BIOS.  ASRock is fine as well.  I've never used MSI but hear they are nice.

 

Intended workloads -

Frequent gaming

making a game in Unity

Blender rendering

 

I don't know what's what in the X570 world and would like to hear from people who are familiar with the boards and why you would recommend. 

 

Thanks

The Asus Prime X570P, surprisingly not terrible for its price despite being the cheapest available in USD right now, is a good cal, for the budget minded. 

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Looking at pics, no M.2 heatsink? But the price is amazing!

M.2 heat sinks don't provide any real benefit outside of looks
