They look to be completely comparable to each other. Pick the less expensive one.

This is my opinion, it doesn't mean I'm right and is liable to change at any time. I may offend of which I apologize in advance.

the msi mobo's had a problem with bad VRM's or so, so i'd still try to avoid them, untill the new amd mobo's come around

Both have a rather weak 4-phase VRM which is fine for a R3 or R5. Don't pair it with a Ryzen 7 though.

Pro4 is a micro ATX board with above average VRM. IIRC B350-F has one of the best VRM for B350 chipset and is an ATX board.
