Hey im having issues picking a mobo for my build, my original choice was the tomahawk b450 max but its not in my country and buying it from USA the mobo + customs =225 usd and i dont know if this is an acceptable price for this mobo. This mobos are in my country
-Msi mpg x570 gaming plus 251 usd
-Gigabyte b450 aorus elite 175 usd
-MSI mag b550 tomahawk 251 usd
-Gigabyte x570 Gaming X 270 usd
270 is my max budget but im lookin for the best price-performance. Which one do you think that is the best choice? or should i stick with the b450 tomahawk max?

This is my build https://pcpartpicker.com/list/PrdtMc

Thanks ^-^

i went with the GB aorus pro for $119 when i bought it. you don't need all that overkill mobo for a 3600. i'd just be sure it has the right ports and headers you need and save some cash.

same thing with that ram. i spent that much and got 32gb of 3200 speed. there is plenty of solid 3600 speed ram for half that price. that couple extra CAS won't make much of a difference overall. or $75 still gets CAS 16 and 3600 speed if you insist.

i understand wanting to go all out but you can save a good bit on the mobo and ram and not hurt performance any. put the savings into more storage. 500 gb is not really that much with games breaking 100 gb these days.
Those are some insane prices and that kinda sucks on how expensive they are for you. I personally feel you should go with the Tomahawk B450 Max because it's really solid for a mid tier mobo. I ended up getting the Asus ROG Strix B450-F Gaming - $130 (For me) which is a really nice motherboard for the price.

It all comes down to the what you want it too look like and maybe a little more features such as nicer materials and a temp gauge on the mobo like higher end mobos have.
