AMD Motherboard Breakdown: X570 vs. B550 - Spotting the Pros and Cons! ✅❌

[@TubeYouDSilvy]

This is a great video. The “sad” fact is - you kinda only realize what you need want by carefully planning your system out OR 18 months after you’ve built it and you’re planning you’re next upgrade and you realize the board doesn’t accommodate the upgrade you want. To anyone who was listening - that was Tech’s best advice - try to think one or two steps out - to make sure the board will be able to handle your system’s needs as your build evolves. Pretty much all boards can handle your system -TODAY-. And pretty much much all high end boards can handle your build in the future - the trick is to not get so crappy that it can’t handle your needs, and not get so high end that it way over does it. Easier said than done - but if you do it right it can make a HUUUGE difference over time - in terms of elongated the life of your build, adding features, reliability, improving satisfaction, saving money. It’s a bigger deal than just the $50-$100 price difference than it looks on its surface.

[@starz8580]

Yeah that’s facts. I just got the cheapest b550 with 4 dimm slots for my 3600, and now I’m thinking if I want to upgrade to a 5800x (or other zen 3 8 cores when they release) and I’m prob gonna need a motherboard with better vrms.

[@TubeYouDSilvy]

@@starz8580 You didn’t ask me for my advice - nor should you have - but just my 2c ... I don’t know what your use case is - but unless you’re being dangerously bottlenecked ... I feel like it’s not a great idea to get a new mobo now just for a 5000 series cpu when in a bout a year Zen 4 will come out on the AM5 platform and require yet another mobo chipset. Unless you NEED a new cpu for something now I feel like the mobo upgrade cash would be better spent 1) just on doing nothing or 2) on components for your system that will improve overall performance but will be transferrable to your next build such as more ram, or a new/faster SSD, something like that. If it were me, I’d wait for the mobo upgrade til Zen 4 and then AM5 chipset ... since the3600 is already solid ...

@@starz8580 I am building a new PC, i am gonna buy a ryzen 9 3900x with a gigabyte b550 elite v2 motherboard. Am i making the right choice?

[@TubeYouDSilvy]

@@mamory3791 Like all things - it depends. Are you building a pc now because you want to or you need to? Are you choosing the 3900x because it had the right price/performance mix that suited you or it’s the only thing you could get your hands on right now in the current environment and you are antsy to get building? The problem is that without knowing you or your circumstances it’s impossible to answer you. The other thing to keep in mind - like significant others - there’s no ‘perfect build’ - the moment you build it there are better / cheaper components usually coming out. But it is worth thinking about the fact that if you can hold out another few months - AMD will not only have better supply but they may also have a broader line up of 5000 series chips that suit your needs. but to answer your initial question - the 3900 and b550 are both very good, and barring specific niche use cases, will be able to handle just about whatever you throw at it. The danger of building with one now is that in a year you get FOMO when they release $300 6600x cpu that mops the floor with it on the AM5 chipset

There is another difference the VRM on B550 Master its superior 16 true phases (used in server boards and the 700usd aorus x570 extreme ) The B550 master basically have the best possible VRM on consumer board. The x570 master have 14 phase. So it depends what you want best VRM or more gen 4 lines. In my opinion gigabyte should do the B550 Master like other B550 boards with the N2 and N3 gen 3 slots connected to the chipset bcs now it just limits expandability.

[@changedytaccount5539]

Keep in mind that most people won't need the beefier VRM since they'll most likely have sufficient cooling, so the tradeoff isn't worth it in the long run.

When I first built my PC in 2016, my uncle was helping me build it and always told me to buy higher than I “need” for “future-proofing” as much as I could. While I don’t believe “future-proofing” to be as substantial as it was in 2016, I still do believe that the more you invest in your PC the longer it will last. On that note, I bought the x570 aorus master in 2019 1. Bcuz they didn’t sell b550 back then. 2. I want all the pcie 4.0 lanes so when I max out the m.2 slots with nvme ssd’s, I know they will be fast af for a long time. I paired my x570 with a 3700x and if 6000 series ryzen is on AM4, I might pick up a 6900x to keep for the next 5 years.

yes but with elite you get a board with VRM that will work on much higher temps and its possible to overheat with high end cpus. Also the pcb on elite its 4 layer (instead of 6) aorus pro and master are on another level. But it also depends on your CPU if you use ryzen 5 or 7 elite its ok

The B550s (sometimes) have better memory topology than the X570s so that's something to consider and the B550s don't have a chipset fan. Because of riser bifurcation, I'm running my 3080 at Gen 3 x8; I can still score Top 10% (3080s, stable OC) in TimeSpy and performance is in-line with gaming benchmarks. I'm using the Aorus B550I (ITX), 5900X (PBO), and 2x32GB @3800Mhz CL16. On the latest BIOS, it can still run the primary m.2 at Gen 4 (Samsung 980 Pro) while running the 16x at Gen 3 x8/x8 (x8/x4/x4 is possible).

[@Dazulolwarrior]

the most cores i've had in my system is 8 so I'm actually fine with the selections of 200~250 dollars MB, but yea i should take note that ryzen 5000 is probably going to be last of the AM4 socket

I picked up the x570 master because I wanted the full use of the lanes. Against your usual advice, I have a 5600X which will be going in it - temporarily... I'm coming off an old Intel 7700k system, and due to the stock shortages I haven't stood a chance getting any amd cpu other than that 5600X. When I can finally find a 5900X in stock, I will sell down to my friend who currently has a 3600X, minimising my excess spending. The system will work out to around £2700 when I can get a 3080 (or Ti if they get released) and the 5900X, so the x570 works well at that pricing range

Having said that I worked out recently, instead of getting a RTX 2070 super I could of got a RTX 2080 maybe a super at a push. Now I have upgraded to a 6800xt, so in hindsight maybe the right move.

But the master lineup is just so feature packed, just dont like the though of having to split that x16 slot if i plan to upgrade a few years down the line to even a 40 series RTX card. Do the lanes only get split if they are running at pcie gen 4 speeds? Or is there a way to limit them to gen 3 speeds and retain the 16x lanes to the GPU?

[@TriWaZe]

See I splurged for the X470 Gaming Pro Carbon when I bought my 3900x and I feel like I got screwed. I had to wait around for AMD to send me an older CPU to flash the board because they decided to put Flashback only on the the B450 version and also with the new bios's they released the B450 way before the X470. Makes you question spending more for the premium version when that premium version turns out to be not so premium.

That's an interesting feature with that Aorus Master B550 board, being able to divide the PCIe 16x with all the M.2 slots. It's probably pretty niche. For most people, I think they would either go with a regular B550, or a somewhat stripped down X570 and be willing to sacrifice some of the nice "luxury" features, or go all the way and go premium X570 board with all the widgets and do-dads, rather than a fully-featured board with a chipset that isn't top tier. I can see custom builder companies like Origin or Main Gear, use that board to sell the customer a "premium" PC experience, and save on having to use a premium X570 board.

Got a Dark Hero and sent my x570 Aorus Master back (unopened). If you don't care about the 3rd M.2 slot, Asus Dark Hero is probably the way to go for a little more than the Aorus Master. It has passive cooling (no chipset fan) and OC features that are awesome for 5900x and 5950x that only this board has. This was released in November and supports Ryzen 5000 out of the box. That said Dark Hero is a little hard to get right now.. but stock appears to drop more frequently.. should stabilize within a month or two I imagine.

[@Luci_S]

Thanks for the info and good job as usual! Love your content and videos! However, I will mention that while I agree both boards are special, the X570 (even newer x570s) have a feature called Active OC Tuner (exclusive to gigabyte) which gives you either a manual all core overclock or PBO (the board will adjust or switch) depending on your usage for best performance: This solves the issue where people either stick with an all core manual overclock on all cores or just want PBO. OC Tuner will give you both on demand depending what you run, and haven't seen any other board manufacturer do this! Unfortunately, the Gigabyte B-550 series doesn't support or include that Active OC tuner, so paying for the extra $100 might be worth it!

[@changedytaccount5539]

Will 12 cores 24 threads be substantial for 6 years? I need help deciding on the 5900x vs the 5950x. I don't do 3D rendering or anything like that but I need help making the right decision.

[@billlam7756]

If it just pure gaming and u want future proof for the next 5 years then 5800x, 5900x if you dont care spending extra $100. 5950x is overkill and totally not worth it, so if u got the money 5900x. If u wanna save 100 bucks then 5800x will get you thru. They both give same performance and can do more than just gaming or incase future require more cores

[@changedytaccount5539]

@@billlam7756 yeah thanks bro, i decided last week that i would go with the 5900x :)

[@kaleckton]

I plan to upgrade after ddr5 and USB 4 comes out. Even then it's a timing thing depending on supply and prices and just how much better it can be against my current setup. The only upgrade I have planned right now is gpu for my desktop. And my laptop getting bigger nvme storage. Which I don't currently need more storage on my laptop it just would be nice and I may need it a year from now. There's a chance if everything not to much better I may keep my current setup for years except change the gpu. But I would like faster transfer speeds of data and that's where I am focused at the moment from micro sd cards maxing those out and maxing out transfer speeds transferring data between external hard drives and ssds. Thats been most of my buys lately.

What motheroard model is in the left thumbnail?

[@dvdsaiz]

Is the same between b550-i & x570-i Aorus master itx boards for sff builds?

[@NovaaGrind]

I made the mistake of buying an matx case before confirming the motherboard I'll get. Now I am compromising with few PCIe lanes and USB ports that I could use....... Not to mention the build is over $5000 I can't settle with the matx asrock 570 or MSI mortar 550. Damn it I'll have to sell my matx case and buy atx case instead

[@aymenahmed-rf4sg]

gigabyte b450 aorus elite gigabyte b550m dsh3 what's better for r5 5600x i need answer plz

[@v.i.p.a137]

what is the difference interms of overclocking

[@ModernGeekReview]

I get the ASUS ROG STRIX B550 wifi , 2.5gb lan it's a awesome motherboard ! Come with Asus RamCache III! Amazing performance !

[@ModernGeekReview]

@Rod 1984 nice! solid motherboard for sure! But future I do hope you get the wifi motherboard next time. It actual have bluetooth and wifi. So it very awesome and bluetooth devices like keyboard, mouse, wireless ear buds are convient to use . Next build!

[@anon8613]

Uhh you can get a Msi x570 for $168 on Amazon. Was even less on sale. Mines been working for a while now

[@celdur4635]

The problem is the annoying chipset FAN on the X570! that's a no-go!

[@codypicard379]

I own the b550 aorus master and it has a no start issue where it randomly will soft brick on shutdown making me pull the cmos battery. I really love these board but not ready to recommend until this issue is fixed

[@pierolam8515]

I got it AsRock taichi x570 because I plan on upgrading my 5800x in a year or when I need to be able to play the newest games. Simple, if I didn't want to do that I would of gone 5900x x550

[@vi_EviL_iv]

Make it easy, x570 is better. Get x570 and have a good foundation for a few upgrades and keep it for 5-7 years. Saves money in the long run. After that, either keep the pc and make it into storage or media server to get a little more out of it.

[@liviuciumegu]

youtube is full of B550 videos..... can you do one with B560 motherboards ?

[@bradbeyers9028]

You should do a video explaining the z490 boards and what will be different about the z590 boards... Cause I was confused I thought z490 boards were gonna be pcie 4.0 compatible but in the specs all the slots say 3.0 in the descriptions. It's confusing

[@bluemojos]

Let's go build that Intel i9 10850K PC for Rogue! 👍 Merry Christmas to the Tech Family! 🎄🎁

[@cbonez2909]

I used a msi b550 gaming wifi board with my 5600x and its perfect!!

[@mrgtmodernretrogamingtech6891]

I learned something great! SUBSCRIBED! Thank you! =)

[@timmyfingaz100]

nice vid, thanks for explaining!!

[@bamenvy]

The number of boards the partners are releasing is approaching, if not already, convoluted. This kind of information would be keenly purposeful to buyers in the purchasing process, and as you mentioned in the video there is no good way of knowing this by the marketing available. Every generation of boards and CPUs and GPUs that comes out I'm having to watch as many videos as I can from TechTubers in hopes they will cover a finite detail like this WHICH ABSOLUTELY MATTERS IN THE SCALING AND PERFORMANCE POTENTIAL OF A PRODUCT OVER TIME. It's like the manufacturer's engineering and marketing departments are not in the same room, ever. That's a problem.

[@_Zarya]

Thank you. Best video on the topic so far.

[@BarcelonaKid1]

Which of these would fit better a 3070?

[@alexandretoledo1708]

Wow! Great video! Thanks for it! Pro, Master, Ultra, Extreme, Elite...all of a kind! They’re all X570! Anywhere to compare the subtle features that name them differently?! If so, please let me know... Thanks, once again!

[@arikelvara]

I wanted the Asus Dark Hero. That was $400 Australian dollars more than the Strix E one I bought. Strix E was $460 Dark Hero, $860 Australian dollars !

[@davidgunther8428]

This X570 seems to be lucky enough to get 2.5G LAN. I wonder why it is so much more common on B550. I get that 2 GPU upgrades from now the 8 lanes might be limiting, but if PCIe 5 is the standard in 2 years, in 4 years won't either config be a bit slow? The way storage needs are headed, would having more, 2× as fast, drives be better for the overall system than better graphics card bandwidth?

[@KingNeu]

Was going for a B550 mobo but after this, I might just go with an x570 for future proofing.

[@mrmedium7984]

I managed to get a Asus tuf gaming x570 wifi for $160 new. There is no reason to get a 550 when a lower end cost x570 has so much more bandwidth and features against any b550 for about the same price. I want my future r9 5900x system to last till the eol of the AM5 generation

[@thatheliguy1066]

had a msi unify, traded it out for this x570... no regrets, lovely board

[@cashstore1]

Finding the motherboard is the hardest thing for me.

[@metaleater9]

I think far more X570 board have lane bifurcation than people think. Also if you're running gen 3 NVME drives right now, If you adapt them to 1x you only lose half their speed on X570.

[@powerinnumbers6159]

X570 Master. Love it, very stable
