NEED help on choosing the MoBo and CPU for the "tower fire" replacement

Chris_Ryzen

Budget (including currency): 800

Country: canada

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: some gaming and 3D design work for 3d printing

Other details i have case, PSU, GPU, SSD, and RAM. coming from a Gigabyte Ga-970a ds3 with an FX4100 16gb hyper x Fury(1866) but the mobo decided to get really hot and kill the PCI-Ex16 slot. SO im wanting to upgrade ASAP and as my first option i bought the MSI MPG X570 gaming edge WiFi and ryzen5 3600x amazon combo and i could not even get the driver disk installed without it locking up or BSoDing me every time i tried, i sent it back as nothing i did fixed it and after research found out MSI cheaped out on that MoBo.   NOW im looking to buy 1 of these 4 Other boards as a second try on th AM4 socket.     im looking at.... #1.. ASUS Tuf gaming x570 plus wifi,   #2..Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite Wifi... and #3...Gigabyte X570 Gaming X....#4... ASRock X570 Phantom gaming 4.   i plan on running the Ryzen 5 3600X/XT CPU, Adata XPG Spectrix D41 TUF gaming alliance  RAM(3200mhz,32gb kit). YES i know the ram is not on ANY of the tested lists but i can sedn ram back for other stuff on the list if they dont work. I NEED help ASAP and as many Pros and Cons of the 2 best options, WiFi is not a must but a nice to have, PLEASE help me get back on my machine ASAP its killing me(mentally and financially) not being able to design the stuff i need to, THANKS
