I already have Ryzen 5 1600 AF, i'm going to buy Gigabyte ga-a320-h, it doesn't support OC, but i'm stuck in budget, shoud i just wait or buy it?

My thought is if you're not going to overclock, then you don't need any overclocking components, but if you can share your hardware specs to confirm, that would be helpful.

Okay, are you buying the board new or used?

If you're not going to overclock, no, you don't need to get an OC motherboard, however the older AMD chips really do benefit from it and you should consider overclocking it. Also, B350 motherboards really aren't that much more than their A series counterparts and usually use better components. I don't really see the value in saving $10 or $15 here.

So, I just don't need motherboard with OC support if i'm not going to overclock?

No OC? No problem.

 

Get the board that fits your budget.

Kind of self explanatory isn't it?
