Hello, I wanted to build my first PC and I was thinking of getting an rtx 3070 with the a new amd processor, but I don't know which motherboard I should use, my budget is around 1000 to 1200, I was thinking of maybe getting an Gigabyte B550 AORUS Elite for 150 dollars or a MSI B550M PRO-VDH for 100, I don't know much about motherboards but I would want to know which would fit better.

If you don't mind waiting for MSI to release It's MAX series, or if you're fine with Updating the BIOS by yourself (fingers crossed that isn't necessary this year), I'd go for the MSI B550-A pro, or wait for new boards.

I am NOT a professional and a lot of the time what I'm saying is based on limited knowledge and experience. I'm going to be incorrect at times.

I would get a strix b550-f gaming, but its like 170, so may be a bit much. 

I could use some help with this!
