Best Motherboard for Ryzen 7000 | AM5 Motherboard (B650 & X670) For Ryzen 7600X 7700X 7900X 7950X

[@PCBuilderChannel]

*Note: 1) Current ASUS Boards are problematic with Ryzen 7800X3D, do not recommend them for this CPU. 2) Typo in one of the overlays "B560". That should be "B650".* What motherboards are you looking at? What motherboard features matter most to you and why?

[@asmrnaturecat984]

Usb4 and a lot of usbA

[@user-bonk]

Gigabyte only had b650e aorus master, rest are b650 /cough wrong description

[@7fe5z25]

I think the heatsinks are important for vrms and m.2s and the look overall, I don’t really care for the entry audio

[@dalamboman6863]

B659e aorus master or x670e steel legend as the steel legend is nearly 50 to 80 bucks cheaper or 5000rupees inr

[@seylaw]

I suspect this will happen more than once to us all this generation. It is just too easy to get that wrong this time.

[@issactmk50]

Most of tech youtubers talk about RTX 4090 but Jason talks about best motherboard for Ryzen 7000, thumbs up for not following the trend!

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Thank you! We figured the other channels would be covering the 4090 and we'd get some other info out to builders (:

[@RobBCactive]

Yeah I ignored my 4090 notification, I feel I have a pretty good idea on performance and Nvidia's pricing disqualifies them. The MCM RDNA3 is far more interesting to see how this GCD/MCD next gen cache-ing works out.

[@Deviantsoundz]

@@RobBCactive with all the leaks and info given directly from nvida you could make some pretty accurate predictions as to where it would land. Fast forward 3 reviews to confirm numbers and that was it.

[@RobBCactive]

@@Deviantsoundz well HUB showed power efficiency is better than Ampere, but with the CPU bottle necking a $699 6900xt looks far more sensible. If RDNA3 matches MLiD leaks at a sane price, we'll need Zen4 or RPL to actually push the cards

[@Arthur-yx9hw]

Just wanted to say a huge thank you Jason for all the amazing work you put into these videos. I am planning to build my first pc in what seems to be a crazy time for the pc market. While this initially made me a cautious or unsure consumer, your videos have given me the insight to confidently buy and build. I was waiting for the b650/e drop to build for am5 and went with the Asus rog strix b650e-f, a little pricier, but I think it will do me well in the long run. Ty again!

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Thank you Arthur! The feedback means the world to us. Best wishes on your build and so glad we can help!

[@dianaalyssa8726]

That board has really nice features. DDR5, PCIE5, 3 nvme slots, certainly a nice first build.

[@Barthezzzz]

Probably going for the same board. It has nice features, but not excessive. Plus, I think it is a bit more future proof (I don't upgrade often).

[@ThereisNOpandemicWAKEUP]

Board is still nowhere to be found:(

[@MediumrarePancake]

Still watching the videos after building. It's the best way to stay up to date with new developments. Thanks for being the best!

[@PCBuilderChannel]

We love to hear it! Congrats on your build and thanks for watching!

[@jamesmiscellaneous]

Good job telling people about included audio codecs. It's often overlooked. I have ALC1220 on a B450 board and it sounds great. I think if you go back to some of the older audio codecs there's the potential to lose certain features such as AEC which I swear by. I think AM5 as a whole is a bad value at this time, but again you are letting people know about the potential for 3DVcache parts and the ins and outs of the boards you went over. This is a good resource for people who are not well versed in PC hardware, but also for people like me who can't afford to have these products in hand, so we get a look at them on channels like this. Calling out the lack of value is also a plus, good job. This is a good landing spot for someone who'd like to build a new computer but isn't sure about where to start and their options. ✅

[@hime-kamisama]

For most people, using software is enough especially when the purpose is for gaming, you can use peace and some VST plugins, or even if you have an RTX card you can use Nvidia broadcast. It's a nice thing, however you shouldn't spend $50 more just because of better audio if that's only the difference you looked at, you can buy a $6 USB-C DAC (Apple) which is going to be better for value if you really cared about it.

[@uncensored1948]

I am building my first computer since 2011 and the only reason I am getting a B650E is because of you. I’m getting a more expensive one, but it’s because it’s the one that suits me the best. Keep up the content!

[@nickhirsbrunner4694]

I'm just really excited they moved to LGA, I've been fixing Intels LGA boards for years now as they're a lot easier to fix than PGA boards and often times cheaper. AMD moving to LGA gives me a lot more legroom on what I want to fix and potentially how much more money I can make really excited to see where this takes me in a few months.

[@corymargarucci]

[@hazonku]

As a content creator and a digital artist this was a very informative video. I built a great open looped i7-7700K/GTX 1080Ti build in 2017 and although it still mostly holds its own in gaming it's finally starting to really show its age in regards to render times and high poly Zbrush workflows. For me a lot of IO & storage options are key and thanks to this video I feel like I have a much better understanding of what my options are.

[@watersMO]

Great summary, Jason. I think you've inspired me to pay more attention to the audio codec on my next board. Presently with ALC892, and I've always wondered if that's the source of an extremely subtle buzzing.

[@boboboy8189]

Those cheap ALC8xx doesn't have audio shields.

[@Barthezzzz]

Great video as usual. Love every single one of them; very informative. I'll probably stick to ASUS. My current system has a 9 years old ASUS Z-87 motherboard (with a SAPPHIRE TRI-X R9 290X GPU) , and still works like a charm (of course I can't run some games anymore). In the past I also had Asrock and Gigabyte motherboards, but of none of them lasted this long without any issues. I'm going to wait a little bit for the Ryzen 7000 X3D CPU's, and then I will probably go for the ASUS ROG Strix B650E-F (maybe with another Sapphire GPU :-)). I like the Audio on this board and I feel it's a bit more future proof than some other boards. I also don't need the excessive connectivity of a X670E board or the second GPU slot on some boards. And in general, in my personal experience the ASUS boards are more durable and stable. Numbers are important to me, but building quality even more. So yes, I am one of those ASUS fanboys :-)

[@goosejohnson3197]

Whoa Im in a very similar boat, my setup is about 11 years old and has an Asus P8P67-Deluxe with an MSI R9 280X and Ive been very satisfied with the longevity of my Asus motherboard. Ive also had my eye on an ASUS ROG Strix B650E-F (we might be spirit bros lol j/k) however Jason doesnt seem to think that PCIe 5 is a big deal at this point but Im hoping this board will future proof enough to last another 7+ years. Im still undecided about the cpu and was looking at the X3D cpu's as well but the 7900 (non X) seems to be a pretty good value now that they have launched. Even though my last GPU was an MSI I went back with an ASUS gpu this time but no matter the choices I fully expect at least 1 upgrade to the GPU and CPU in it's lifecycle and Im fine with that assuming I dont have to upgrade motherboard and RAM on top. Cheers.

[@ophiuckus1635]

Same here. i5 4440 and Asus B85M-E. Still working perfectly with alot of miles on it; my pc is on for almost 24/7. This is the reason I most surely want to go with ASUS board again for AM5. I'd like to go with the TUF board in combination with 7600(non x) but need to do more research on it.

SPDIF is a big one for me, not yet found a board that has PCI-E 5 storage and SPDIF for a good price. Over in the UK here, your $259 boards are actually £349 so a big jump.

[@darrellearwood4224]

Jason, you are the man. Im so glad you show the price vs features. It appears the am5 x670 motherboards are cheaper than am4 x570 motherboards looking at it that way. The gigabyte aorus x570s master is still $279! I've been holding on to this 5900x cpu for months waiting for the price of that motherboard to go down. I should just sell it and cut my losses and move up to the 7900x and new amd platform which now is being used through 2025. Great review on this episode. Thank you again

if prices gets better, i've been eyeing on the Asrock B650M PG Riptide. At least this time they added a Bios Flashback feature. Sure wish though they had the Pro series for MATX just like the Pro4 on the AM4. although, i'm a little bit skeptical about the VRM config. But since undervolting would be the best way to go to save power and heat, i don't think that would be a problem.

The TUF is honestly not that bad... A lot of gamers out there use a USB amp for headset/microphone, so the audio drivers aren't the end of the world. 3 M.2 slots, a 10 GB USB-C and a 20 GB USB-C, and for me, personally, I'm using a USB interface for all my audio so the built in audio drivers aren't even a factor. 8+4 CPU power connectors, and one of the biggest VRM heatsinks I've seen for the price with built-in I/I shield. Not the most equipped on the USB side, but I only have two USB 3.0 peripherals I use so, again, not a big deal. Then again, only time will tell.

Glad it helped!

I miss that enthusiastic " Hi, i´m Jason "... But still love the video.

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Oh no! I'll try to work that back in. Glad you enjoyed the video! (:

Great video as usual. I'm looking forward to your review of the best Air Coolers for AM5. I have a Ryzen 9 7950x and want to pair it with a GIGABYTE X670 AORUS ELITE AX

I play single player games only, should I go for a 2k 120hz monitor or should I invest more in a 2k 165hz monitor?

Liking this video so it doesn't get overshadowed by the 4090 reviews. When I upgrade to a Ryzen x3D chip. I'll definitely be eyeing an Asus Crosshair Hero or the Strix (which seems to be the new Hero pricing wise).

Appreciate the like!!

I have been thinking of getting the Gigabyte B650 AERO G and the Ryzen 7 7700X plus the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4060 Ti AERO OC 16G. Just wondering if these 3 together make a good combo. The graphics card is taking a lot of my budget I am looking at this ram TEAMGROUP T-Force Delta RGB DDR5 Ram 32GB (2x16GB) 6000MHz PC5-48000 CL30. If there is a graphic card that is cheaper that can get close or better performance please let me know or if there is any other changes you would make. Thank you I don’t know how to send the full list to you or I would. Thank you again

Nice vid as usual, what do you think about the MSI Carbon? thanks

[@PCBuilderChannel]

We actually have a much more current version! Check out our Best Ryzen Motherboard 2024 video. I recommend the MSI Carbon there

Great video and easy to understand for first time builders! How about the GPU market update and a 6800 XT budget 4k build?

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Thank you so much! That's the goal (: GPU market update coming soon, waiting to get all the 4090 info. And yes we'll do some sample 4k builds soon! In the meantime check out our Best Builds 2022 video from September. We had some good ones there

[@Suavelife85]

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Glad you do! Happy to help :) Thanks so much for watching.

Hi Jason, thanks so much for your in depth reviews and advice. I'm putting together a reasonably priced upgrade to my pc by selecting AMD Ryzen 7600x chip and either ATX 3070 ti GPU or Radeon RX 6700 XT and a bit overwhelmed by choice in the motherboard section. Bearing in mind I don't need a pcie 5 slot, what would be a decent board that is in keeping with my pricepoint but also doesn't hinder the compatibility of my parts? Thanks in advance. Nick

I bought a Proart X570 creator the last time I built and I believe it is the best motherboard I have ever purchased . Has all off the good features and stable overclocking as well . The most I ever spent before that was in the 200 dollar range . I guess you sometimes get what you pay for ... but almost never get more than you paid for ? LoL !!

[@stubblestudios9446]

Hey. I am confused in finding a good processor. Should I go for Intel or amd 7 series processor? Ryzen 7 5800x or i712700k? Which is better for productivity? Building a budget pc.

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Building a budget PC right now check out our Best 1440p Build video from last Saturday on the channel!

[@kennY_72]

Hi Jason, hat would be the best b650 board overall?

[@ChinchillaBONK]

Thanks for this! Btw, can you help clear up the confusion about AM5 supported DDR5 RAMs and at what speeds? from what i know, it seems it only supports 1DPC at DDR5 5200 speeds and if you go 2DPCs, the speeds gets reduced significantly. Also, 1DPC at higher than 5200 speeds is not very clear how it works to OC it since the actual support is at 5200 speeds.

Hey Jason, what do you think about the Asus prime b650?
