Did a Ryzen 3600X + 3600Mhz TridentZ NEO build with it, it was a nice board.

Can't recommend pairing Corsair memory with it though, as Gigabyte AMD board + Corsair memory in general is a combo you should avoid, but with this board in particular I came across a thread of people complaining about compatibility between the two. But with the TridentZ NEO I just turned on XMP and it worked.

It also has a USB Type C/3.1 Gen 2/3.2 Gen 2 header which may prove helpful now or later.

its a good board (like most x570 ones out right now). Im pretty sure its gigabyte's flagship mobo and it is prominently used by reviewers. if you can afford it, go for it. 

 

personally, I would stick with b450. why do you want x570?

@Saksham X570 supports ryzen 3000 and with a bios update in the future could support 4000 series if released on the am4 platform where as B450 only supports 2000 and 3000 series plus X570 has better vrms for the 3900x if needed
