So I am trying to trade away from my grotesque Asus Prime B350-Plus mobo because the black/red scheme on my computer is meh. But I am looking into going white and black so if I were to throw some RGB LEDs in that any color would reflect off the white and that would be good.

SO. which is better for my Ryzen 1500X? I am considering overclocking slightly but does this choice matter if I do not want to overclock?

 

MSI B350 TOMAHAWK ARCTIC

MSI B350 MORTAR ARCTIC

 

I slightly feel that the blue capacitors on the Mortar board might be annoying. Thoughts? any other suggestions?

Would only like to spend $80-$110 USD

 

EDITED: Budget

I did see this, and it is great for the price. I really like the full ATX boards but its definitey a fall back mobo
