Hello,

 

Budget (including currency): around 200€ (could be more if seems useful)

Country: France

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Gaming mostly.

Other details I'm looking only for the motherboard, since I change my CPU to a ryzen 3, I have everything else I need

 

I'm looking to buy a motherboard, I've decided to go with X570 chipset, this would be a gaming machine, I intend to put a ryzen 3, a RTX 3080, 16Go of DDR4-3600, two M2 PCI-E 4 drive, CPU cooled with an AIO watercolling and the rest with air cooling. I will do some light overclocking, but I'm don't need extreme overclocking functionnality.

 

I was looking at "ASUS PRIME X570-P" and "ASUS TUF GAMING X570-PLUS", but I'm not sure wich one I should go for. I'm open to other brand / model, but these ones look like they would fit my requirement.

Do you have any advice or suggestion ?

 

Thank you 🙂

which ryzen 3? why ryzen 3 with a rtx3080? why a x570 with a ryzen 3? so many questions

 

I think the OP refers to Ryzen 3rd Gen, not an actual Ryzen 3. At least I hope that this is what eh refers to.

From those two, I would get the Tuf Gaming. Looks better imo. But after all you should buy whatever you personally like and what fits your needs. Both boards are pretty bare-bones when it comes to X570.

Yeah, my bad, I meant ZEN 3, I coppy-pasted a few things and got it plain wrong on my post.

Any use to get a higher tier one ? Or any function that would benefit me ?

There isn't really any "function," as every x570 board needs to have the base spec. There are features though. Better VRM and VRM cooling, better memory overclocking and compatibility, more USB ports, 2.5/10gig LAN, etc etc... 

 

If you have some more time to spend:
