Biostar x370 gtn itx discussion

[AndreLebrao]

I bought this mobo when it was available and planning on building a system when the craze ends, nothing crazy, r5 1600, 16gb and (hopefully) a 570, 580 or 1060 inside a thermaltake core v1

Could someone help me with this mono choice? Should I sell mine and go for the other ones or keep this one? I heard very mixed feedback about biostar

I wanted to keep the stock cooler and OC my chip to 3.6Ghz, maybe 3.7 if that's still quiet. I could upgrade cooling solution in the future to a be quiet! Or Noctua air cooler

There is an Asrock one comming out just now, I'm worried about power delivery on this biostar one because it only has a 4pin for the cpu

It's decent but definitely needs improvement such as: WLAN, not a high end chipset, better power connector (4 pin instead of 8 pin). But they cut too many corners on this they really should improve on it with the suggestions I suggested but they won't listen to the minority *Ahem* Wargaming *Ahem*

It's not really a great board for an enthusiast, because of the 4-pin plug for the CPU connector. The only good option right now are the Fata1ity ITX Ryzen boards from AsRock.

I was looking up on these, they seam better, why everything has to be red and black tho? Anyway, do you think it is worth selling my current one (still unused), waiting and getting one of these? Or it is decent enough to keep it?

Hey, if you're worried about your choice, TweakTown did a in-depth review of this little board.

If it's still unused, just return it. And you don't have to wait, they are already out.

 

The list of Mini ITX Ryzen Boards goes as follows:

 

AsRock > Gigabyte > Biostar
