Im looking to upgrade my b450 motherboard to get better support for next gen CPUs I currently have a aorus elite b450 mb and want to upgrade it to either b550 or x570 my main requirement is for it to have wireless WiFi built in these are the boards I've found

I've got a budget of £220 which of these boards would be the best to get for next gen CPUs in most likely going to get the r5 4600 or 4600x as my current CPU is a 2600x my gpu is a Vega 56 flashed to 64 so the 4600 should work fine with it

Why don't you just get a new motherboard when you upgrade your cpu...?

I don't think B550 supports 2nd gen. Some X570 boards do but it's not guaranteed.

I wouldn't upgrade now, wait for those next gen chips to come out and see if your board supports the new chips, or if the new chips are even worth the upgrade.

You're better off seeing what support your current B450 board gets for 4th gen. Otherwise, like noted, wait until you actually get the CPU to upgrade the board.

 

My thoughts right now are some board partners will opt specific models out of 4th gen compatibility since there were some very deliberate design choices from partners like MSI to make 4th gen ready boards, like the Max series

Well I heard the next gen chips wont be fully supported on b450 so thought I'd upgrade now rather then later

Thanks I'll wait for the next gen what board out of the list is the best would you say

Ok but that doesn't make sense... if you have to change the motherboard anyway you should wait to see what is actually supported by the CPU you're buying and by the time those release we'll have newer models you can choose from.

Could the next gen chips be the same proformance as mine? Or only a little better so not worth the money ?

we don't know.

 

But since upgrading the board now won't help you might as well wait till we have more info.
