Ryzen 5 3600 with a320 mobo OR Ryzen 5 2600 with b450 mobo?

what's better? i heard the a320 isn't a good motherboard

What a320 and b450? A320 is entry level and the best one is an ok board but there are a good few b450 boards that are worse than the ok a320's.

The a320m pro is pretty cruddy the mortar max is pretty darn good. What is the total budget you have for this combo?

the mortar max combo is about $250 

and the a320 one is a bit expensive roughly around $280

B450 without a doubt.

The tomahawk max is on sale for 45$ less than the mortar max and it's the better board should allow you to get the 3600 + b450 board
