Mobo reccomendations

[GopherTv]

Budget (including currency): 1500 USD but I can go higher

Country: US

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Rainbow six, and light editing.

Other details: Looking for a motherboard that will have good audio. I overclock but I don't increase voltage, I just mess with clock speeds and stuff. I play on a 1080p 240hz monitor. I rly need someone to teach me how to choose motherboards because the only thing I understand is that It needs to have all the ports I need.

Gamersnexus has a great video on this, I recommend you watch this first so you're aware what boards are out there and which things matter:

Personally I would stick with a good quality b550 board, these are more than powerful enough for years to come as long as you're not planning on hooking up a large number of pci-e 4 devices or a crazy amount of high performance storage. One thing to look out for tho. If you're buying a b550 board you should look up if the specific mobo you're looking at has a bios update to support the new gen 3 cpus and if you'll be able to install the bios update (some manufacturers have out of box support for zen3).

I own a gigabyte aorus pro ac (got it on sale for 80 euros) and I use it with a 5900x at 5.7GHz without any issues.
