Picking a Motherboard for Ryzen

Once Ryzen has been released and people are starting to get it, what motherboard are people thinking of getting?

Surely you don't need to wait for it to be released to look, maybe choose a Motherboard ready to order right away.

That's way too early to do that.

I'm waiting to see if they release any good ITX boards. If they do, I'll get the cheapest one with 6+ USB ports, an m.2 slot, and perhaps WiFi if it's shown to be a decent performer. Otherwise, no Ryzen.

Not many if you looks at board manufactures page/ media pages they have announced most of them mitx and smaller boards will be further down the road

So far looks like the 2 best motherboards for overclocking is https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/ROG-CROSSHAIR-VI-HERO/ which is the one i picked  or the http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/X370 Taichi/

Expensive. Is it worth paying the extra for a Motherboard. Was looking at some around the £110

Mainly depends on if your doing any overclocking a better board will normally overclock better but if your not overclocking and wanna stay around that price id go for a B350 board heres a good choice for that https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157759&cm_re=B350-_-13-157-759-_-Product
