Help, INTEL OR AMD MOTHERBOARD

[dhyan12s]

i'm planning to build around intel arc a750 due to its low price and my tight budget , i have two cpu option 

1. Ryzen 5 5600/x
motherboards : gigabyte b550m ds3h ac 
                           msi b550m pro vdh wifi 

2. i5 12400F 
motherboard: ASRock B660M phantom gaming 4 


here, some people say they need an intel cpu to lower the power consuption of the gpu , but here the both amd and intel cpu are priced similar , but the selection of motherboards isnt , intel motherboard this is the only motherboard i could find for my price 10K indian rupees, which has 4 ram slot , other intel motherboard at a similar or a bit higher pricing doesnt even have 4 ram slots, meanwhile amd has good selection and now i got 2 of motherboard in the list 


Please help me to select whether amd or intel , 

 IM pretty sure i wont upgrade the cpu or gpu , mostly its just adding more ram and ssd 

Thanks in advance

You need the options exposed in the bios: mainly ASPM.

If you dont want to bother searching for used 5600 and B550 motherboard combo, Intel will serve you better.

Neither platform has value in being drop-in upgraded. Sure, the AM4 platform can drop in a 5700x3D/5800x3D, but that's probably not worth it over a 5600x in terms of value at this point. Without going with a Z series motherboard for Intel, there'd be no point in dropping in a 14900k or such down the line if it becomes cheap.

 

I'd say AM4 simply because its not a dead platform like LGA1700. AMD is still putting out products for it, so it'll likely retain its value better. You could also drop in a 5950x without much compromise compared to the LGA1700 motherboard that would gimp a 14900k.

yeah now it looks good i wont have to worry about the motherboard in amd

You could also consider some second-hand cards from the Big Two. They'll probably result in a better overall experience since Intel is pretty new to dedicated graphics cards.

yeah i though , but our country's 2nd hand market isnt that safe and i dont live in a good city where there would be people who are even using a pc with a gpu
