Which of this board should I get?

Im in the market for a ryzen motherboard for ryzen 5 1600.

Im looking for a Strix b350f on a local store but I can't find one, the one available is a MSI Gaming Pro Carbon x370.

here's the dilemma, if I will order the Strix b350f on newegg it will cost me 581aed (159USD) including the shipping while I can get the MSI x370 Pro Carbon locally (a friend from a retail store) for 675aed (183USD).

Should I add more for the x370?

im leaning towards getting it locally.

Thank you for you inputs!

I would go local.

If you shop there enough you can probably get discounts if its just a small store.

Bow down to me humans.

I can't help if you don't quote me. How am I supposed to know if you need my premium support? Now starting at £399.99 a year.

Also, be a sport and mark the correct answer as the correct answer. It will help pour souls in the future when they are stuck and need guidance.

The internet has a habit of blowing these "issues" out of proportion... and most/all of the important issues were early release issues, which every company was having at the time, all of which are pretty much extinct at this point. MSI is a fine company to buy from if that is your thing. I would personally go for the X370 motherboard over the B350, since prices are that close, if I were you.

I'm leaning towards the x370 since the additional price is for the performance/features not in shipping, since shipping here is too pricey.

I have the MSI X370 Gaming pro Carbon and the R7 1700x had no issues with the board in any way and bios update is really easy.

 

Just go with the X370 i would say.
