AngleOff66 Posted 20 hours ago Posted 20 hours ago Thought that this could be a good discussion on motherboards. Yes, there are still B650's out there but they will become harder to find as time goes on. I decided that perhaps an X670E would be a bit better. I have been look at HUB X670E reports on thermals and for sure want something that runs at 80c or lower. Asrock looked to have some boards that were appealing, but until I know for sure that they have solved the issue with AM5, they are a no go. Any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.
manashttu Posted 15 hours ago Posted 15 hours ago I have an ASRock x670E Steel Legend that's been running a 7800x3d for two years. Nice board, and have had no issues, other than the universal slow boot when I first got it . . . but that wasn't unique to ASRock and has been resolved long ago with BIOS updates. Intel 8700K, delidded at 5.1 ghz, Asrock z370 Extreme4, 32gb DDR4 3200, MSI Ventus RTX 3080, triple 1440p Dell s2716dg screens, VKB Gunfighter Mk.I, Virpil M50-CM2 throttle, MFG Crosswind pedals.

What's your budget? I've always gone with Gigabyte, until this 5090 self-igniting issue. So this time an Asus Rog Strix 870E, because "military grade sht". Not cheap though.
