Which motherboard should i choose?

Hi everyone, i want to buy a new motherboard + processor + ram trio. but I did not decide which model to choose when choosing the motherboard. The prices of these three motherboards in the country where I live are close to each other.

1) MSI B450M PRO-M2 MAX
2) GIGABYTE B450M S2H
3) GIGABYTE B450M DS3H
processor model I want to use in the system: ryzen 5 3600
ram model I want to use in the system: 2x16 ddr4 3600mhz BL2K16G36C16U4B
computer case in my hand: cooler master n200
psu in my hand: corsair vs650

Let me explain the method I want to use as follows. I want to use the processor with a stock fan and this processor should work with the stock fan at the highest possible overclocking values. I chose 3600mhz as ram frequencies and I am thinking of using it. As for m2 sata sd, I am thinking of using samsung 970 evo or 970 evo plus 250 gb ssd.

 

I am waiting for your comments, thank you.

I have never used those specific boards but if I were to choose based on the data I can find:

 

The two Gigabyte boards seems to have slightly better VRM than the MSI board.

I would choose the DS3H mainly because it has two more RAM slots.

I understand, amd processors work more stable with 2 slot ram or 4 slot ram? so 2x16 or more logical or 4x8, thank you.

No difference TBH at least on my personal experience (it is still going to be dual channel even if using 4 modules)

 

If it's for gaming it would even be ok to go 2x8 to cut down the cost, eventually upgrade to 32GB with two more modules in the future if needed.

I have the dsh3 with an R5 2600. It's basic but it gets the job done. One thing to know is it only has 2 fan headers, so that leaves you with only one for a case fan. I had to buy a fan hub which added £20. If I were buying again I'd probably spend a little more for something like the MSI tomohawk, however if your budget won't allow this board will work, just don't expect anything amazing.

Max motherboards will have a 32 bit bios with full feature set and run 3000 out of the box

For the MSI B450M PRO-M2 MAX model, I could not find a detail about the ram (BL2K16G36C16U4B) I mentioned when I looked at the official site of msi. I wonder if I can use this ram smoothly?
