I have a b450 Aorus elite and I was looking into getting a ryzen 7 3700 and people were saying it’s iffy with the board I have so I was just hoping someone could point in the right direction I’m wanting to build the pc to be a gaming/recording pc tbh I need help with everything on it if someone could help me I would be so great full.        
 

currently all the items I have are:

220t Corsair case 

B450 aorus elite motherboard 

Ssd 

 

what I’m needing help picking out is 

my gpu and cpu

It's a good board. And also, what does "iffy" mean?

I looked for the definition of the word iffy, so don't bother responding to my irrelevant question 😄

The B450 aorus elite can handle the 3700X, so you can reasonably use the two together. It can crank a decent OC on a 6 core CPU so it'll be fine with an 8 core.

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 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

Really? Thank you so much what would be a good gpu to use with the 3700x for streaming and gaming

Honestly limit would be like 350 around there just nothing that’s 600 

but I just want something that’s good for streaming and recording 

RX 5700 XT models are pretty close to that, but we could be pretty close to some great Nvidia models in that price range. We're waiting for more 30 series release info. 3070 is a touch out of budget.

So the RX5700 XT that’d be a good pair with a 3700? For streaming and gaming.   I mean I was looking at some that people were suggesting but like they are like 600 dollars lol I’m a lil broke but I just wanna move from console so I can improve my content

You could save some money with the 5700 instead since it's still pretty good, though you didn't mention your expected resolution and refresh rate.
