Change of motherboard

[juanjoseb85]

Hi. I have a ryzen 2700x what mother do u recommend?
1) asus prime b350m-e
2) gigabyte ab350m gaming 3.
No oc for the ryzen.

I highly recommend getting a b450 motherboard as either of those boards may not work with your processor without a bios update which you can't perform without a 1*** series ryzen processor

 

[juanjoseb85]

No money for a b450 series. Thats my problem.

 

[Supahos]

Well you're likely going to have a bigger problem if you don't get one. How much can the price difference really be there? Here it's like $4

 

[juanjoseb85]

I'm from Argentina. The b450 series $200usd. B350 $100usd. Thats my problem.

 

[Supahos]

In that case get an 1800x and b350 board and a good cpu cooler

I'm from Argentina. The b450 series $200usd. B350 $100usd. Thats my problem.

And as stated above, the B350 will likely not boot up with a Ryzen 2700 CPU.
You'd need another CPU to update the BIOS.

AMD has a potential loaner program for this.

Motherboard ASUS AM4 Prime B450M-A.
Thats a good mother?

 

[Supahos]

That's a pretty good one

 

[juanjoseb85]

The b450 series don't need a BIOS update for my ryzen?

 

[Supahos]

Correct

 

[juanjoseb85]

The Asus b450 it's compatible whit a ram 3000mhz? Or i need yo adjust the memory speed?
Memory: adata xpg 8gb ddr4 3000mhz

 

[Supahos]

You'll always have to adjust memory speed as it will all start at 2400 but it shouldn't have any trouble reaching 2933 (ryzen will not run at exactly 3000 for some Reason)
