I'm looking to build a new gaming PC but am stuck on either spending $160 or so on a cheap x570 board, or spending around the same on a Asus Prime x470 Pro Motherboard.
I'm trying to pair it with a Ryzen 5 3600 and 3600mhz ram. The main thing I'm concerned about is how I'm gonna get the bios updated, but with the x570 it would work right out of the box and have support for the higher speed ram. Any thoughts?
