Is there any mobo with Thunderbolt 3 that you can recommend?

What's considered the best/smallest mini-itx mb and case combo for the Ryzen5 2400G? No discrete vc will be used. I want this to be as transportable as possible.

The Biostar X370 newegg link says that it's out of stock and may not be restocked. So, I'm not sure that's a helpful suggestion.

Are AMD 470 motherboards not mass produced yet? Not one is on this list.

Hi Thomas,
There seems to be mistake on the pricing of the Asus ROG Strix Z370-G Gaming or the $80 price tag is for another motherboard.

1. The above comment is correct. I only WISH the Asus ROG Strix Z370-G Gaming mobo was available for $80!!! That link actually goes to Amazon's listing for the previous board: ASRock H370M PRO4 .
2. Why no other boards priced under $200? And why only 6 Intel mainstream LGA-1151 boards? There's a ton of them out there and there have to be more than 6 that are good to use.

Yeah I'd like to see the AMD X470 boards reviewed too...as per Soaptrails post.

 

[dahenger]

AMD X470 please.

No full size b450 of b350 nor micro atx boards???

Best X299... For Gaming. Ok. Now, when will there be a serious article for such high end motherboards that actually aren't made for gaming but rather content creation, engineering, etc.?

 

[kep55]

I agree with Frederic Jeanbart. I use my old Gigabyte MA770-UD3 based unit for work not wasting time. How about some info on work and mainstream mobos?

 

[Frederic Jeanbart]

Why don't you update this list, instead of solely modifying its date so as to make it look recent ? There are newer mobo on the X299 block...

Your data on the MSI XPower Gameing AC is incorrect.
The board has 2 x Intel GBe LAN ports, not one.
There are 3 motherboard mounted M.2 Slots. The firsts two come from the chipset, not the CPU. The third is from the CPU. The M.2 expander card anables you to connect another two M.2 drives via a PCIe slot to the CPU lanes.

 

[mhamad.canaan]

what about best Mobo for gaming that also supports generation 9 CPU?

 

[vark8]

WTF?! WHY is this missing x470 and b450?! Ppl are still buying 3 series?? I thought we have moved on to the 4 series???

Asus used to dominate these comparisons but they barely have any representation for Intel and they've completely dropped off the face of the Earth in the X299 category.
