Prime B350 Plus is good even for a 6 core, so i'd recommend it. 

Strix is just polished prime.

Tomahawk is pretty meh

 

Don't buy Apple M1 computers with 8GB of RAM

The Asus options have better VRMs so they'd be better if you wanted to overclock. Running the 1600 at stock would be completely fine on any of these boards.

 

I have the Strix and it's a great board. I wouldn't go crazy overclocking (@dave_kand I have a good-size PM about the VRMs on my board, the disappointing VCore VRM heatsink) like I tried to do with my 1700X but it can handle a bit of an OC on the 1600 if you ever feel up to it.

 

The Tomahawk is just "bleh" and I would personally only pair it with the quad-core AM4 chips.
