Posted December 31, 2019 Hello there, my old Mainboard gave up few weeks ago, may it Rest in one Peace. So I'm planning on upgrading my hardware after almost 6 years. My HDD, SSD and GPU will stay as it is. My Power Supply is the bequiet! System Power 7 450 W. New Hardware I have chosen: MoBo: MSI B450 Tomahawk Max CPU: Ryzen 7 3700x RAM: G.Skill Aegis 2x 16GB 3200 MHz CPU Cooling: Cooler Master MasterAir MA610P I won't OC of any sorts. Are there any concerns the above hardware won't get along with each other ? About the Power Supply, I had my concerns, whether it is enough or not. But colleagues say since I don't OC it is enough. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted December 31, 2019 If you're not going to OC, you can downgrade the motherboard to this https://www.amazon.com/ASRock-ATX-Motherboard-B450-PRO4/dp/B07FVYKJHR/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=motherboard+am4+ATX+b450&qid=1577808763&sr=8-4 to save 10 dollars. Other than that, it seems alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 31, 2019 The B450M/AC is a solid budget option for 3rd gen ryzen out of the box are you gonna be gaming for most of this PC's usage? consider a Ryzen 5 3600 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, it seems alright. But I heard there are bios problems for B450 mainboards when using 3700x ? Maybe I misheard it. 1 hour ago, jakeslayer9091 said: What's your current GPU?

Its an old AMD Radeon 7950 and my Power Supply was ok. 57 minutes ago, Fasauceome said: The B450M/AC is a solid budget option for 3rd gen ryzen out of the box are you gonna be gaming for most of this PC's usage? consider a Ryzen 5 3600 The most time I'm using it for 3D, CAD sorts. Thats why the Ryzen 7 3700x is the maximum I want to afford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's strange since in the UK, I can find a B450 motherboard for less than 80 quid which supports RYZEN 5 3000, for example: https://www.amazon.co.uk/ASUS-PRIME-B450-PLUS-Socket-Motherboard/dp/B07F6ZXNXK/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=b450+asus&qid=1577815796&sr=8-3 Sorry for the misinformation.

Yea thats why I think the b450 max I chose is okey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted January 6, 2020 Author Update: I have another set in mind. Mobo: MSI B450 Gaming Plus Max (7B86-016R) RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32GB 2x 16GB (CMW32GX4M2C3200C16W) I'm not sure if the RAM works with either those 2 mainboards I am choosing of or with the Ryzen 7 3700x. My idea about the new RAM is, when I have saved up more money I will later only upgrade my Mainboard (and PSU) and not the RAM too. What are your thoughts ?
