[SOLVED] Best cheap motherboards for Ryzen 3600 new to PC building

[C_twigg]

Hi everyone,

I am new to the world of PC building and was wondering for a little bit of help choosing a good relatively cheap motherboard to go with the CPU I have chosen the Ryzen 5 3600!

I am looking for a budget-friendly with good features, wifi would be useful but not essential also any suggestions on RAM would also be appreciated.

I have an old pc case which I believe is H15 mesh M-ATX

Thanks for any suggestions!

My recommendation would be a B450 tomahawk max, it provides a lot of features as a usb-c, good network (cable) and provides decent OC options
(it has a number of auto ram oc settings)
troubleshooting led's etc etc

My only "problem" with it is that the audio is rather "standard" i would like to have had a ac1200 personally
But outside of audio content creation i would definitely recommend this mobo

i also paired it with the 3600 and it should retail below 100 euros(!)

Why paying 30$ more for a mobo that is previous gen?
You have pretty decent B550's for the same or even less like this one:

This is also a good suggestion, as I stated my research dates from early 2020
