I'm planning to build a new gaming rig around the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor, and I'm struggling to choose the perfect motherboard. I'm looking for a board that can fully utilize this beast of a CPU while providing excellent features and future-proofing.
My priorities are strong VRM for potential overclocking, PCIe 5.0 support, and good connectivity options. I'm considering both X670E and B650E chipsets but unsure which is the better choice. My budget is flexible, but I'd like to stay under $400 if possible.
What are your recommendations for the best motherboard to pair with the Ryzen 7 7800X3D? Any specific models or brands you've had great experiences with? Thanks in advance for your insights!
Most PC gamers will use B650 motherboard.
Has anyone tried the new X870/X870E motherboards on 7800X3D?
If money is not issue, get X670E motherboards.
Don't pay too much on motherboards, just save your money for a better GPU.
A B650 motherboard is OK.
Get the cheapest B650 motherboard, all are great, and upgrade RAM to at least 6000 CL30
X670E Hero.
Anyone uses B850 motherboards?
I went with the ASUS TUF Gaming X670E-Plus WiFi for my 7800X3D build. It's been rock solid, has plenty of connectivity, and the BIOS is user-friendly. It strikes a good balance between features and cost. Just make sure you update to the latest BIOS for optimal performance with the X3D chips.
