recommended motherboard

[TheTripleDeuce]

ok so im parting together a upgrade for my system, i just snagged a ryzen 5 1600 at 229.99 on amazon.ca and im looking for a 150-200.00 range mother board to go with it

that is what i have been eyeing for a while but was wondering if anyone here has a suggestion for a better motherboard and why

All MSI AM4 boards are crap and/or overpriced. The VRMs on that thing equal those on the decent B350 boards.

The X370 Prime Pro has good VRMs, and costs $190.

i would go b350 it isn't worth buying a expensive motherboard. i would not suggest spending over 150 dollar on a motherboard if you are doing a budget build. the one thing i would look out for is IO and NVME support.

would it be viable to stick with the x370 just avoid MSI manufactured boards?
