Budget x570 atx motherboards

[BeanTeen]

So I’m in the market to upgrade from my current b450 motherboard to a new x570 motherboard, since those ones are compatible with my current cpu (r5 2600). I read somewhere not to get one from MSI, but I’m not sure if there’s any real reasoning behind that. Does anyone know any good budget MoBo’s, preferably under $200?

Why not B550?

Not true, all manufacturers have both good and bad boards. It just depends on the particular model.

The MSI B550 Unify-X is great, the B550 AORUS PRO V2 is a decent choice too. If you're looking for a motherboard on a "budget", you should really be looking at the B550 chipset because you'll get a better board for the price.

If that's your budget there's a asus tuf x570 but why not considered b550?

I see. Try looking at the X570 Aorus Elite, X570 Tuf Gaming or the MSI X570 Unify then. Choose the one that has features that suit your needs better, all of those are decent budget boards.

You have a B450 Tomahawk Max already, you'd have to be insane to "upgrade" from that.

There's not a single CPU that board couldn't handle on the AM4 socket, and that's the board that is most commonly recommended on a budget.

 

Don't waste your money, especially considering AM4 is a dead socket now. The Ryzen 5000 series was AMD's last launch of CPU's on the AM4 socket.

 

EDIT: @Morgan MLGman @DownkeyYou guys really need to check the OP's current specs before making suggestions. He also used the term "upgrade" from his "current B450 board", which is a bad move on a dead socket. Especially considering that B450 still supports every current-gen CPU (*at least in theory, after a BIOS update on select boards and manufacturers; MSI 'MAX' series boards in particular with the best early-adoption support).

the reason im upgrading is because my board has the cpu error light bug and wont shut down propperly. Look at the other post i made yesterday and youll see what i mean

The Asus Prime X570-P, Asus X570 TUF Gaming, and Asrock X570 Pro4 are all pretty good (though the Pro4 is definitely the weakest of the three in terms of VRM design, though it should still handle any AM4 CPU at stock).

If you're having a problem with the board, RMA it and have MSI send you a new one. Don't go out-of-pocket and bounce to an entirely new chipset.

Going off my memory, mid-tier to high-end X470 boards beat out entry level X570 boards any day of the week, and for the same price.

Something like the X470 Gaming Pro Carbon costs the same as the X570 TUF, only by comparison the Gaming Pro Carbon has:

 

+Better VRM/Heatsink

+Better memory overclocking

+Better SLI/Crossfire support & PCIE connectivity (2x reinforced PCIE 3.0 X16 slots, 3x X16 slots total)

+Better I/O (2x USB 3.2 Gen 1, 3x USB 2.0 headers)

+Passively cooled chipset (no annoying tiny fans)
