Hey y'all am back with another doubt.

Should I go for the Asus strix b450-f or the Msi B450 Tomahawk Max for my R5 3600.

What is the reason for either? Thanks :)

Are you limited to both of these? What are they both priced at? And location and currency and budget?

But the strix f is an overpriced board for what it offers and there are some boards that are cheaper and better. 

Strictly between these two, the tomahawk is technically better.

I'm not technically limited to both of them, and the Tomahawk is priced at S$ 165, the strix at S$ 174 ( Singapore prices ) and S$175 is about as far as i can go rn.

So should i go for the Tomahawk?

Yea in this case strictly between these two, the tomahawk is simply better and cheaper.
