Question Gigabyte B365M DS3H or Asus Tuf B365M-Plus Gaming

[DevKarthik]

Hi guys, I like you to help me choose between these two motherboards or other (if you like) Gigabyte B365M DS3H or Asus Tuf B365M-Plus Gaming for 9th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-9400. I am web developer so I mostly open lot of chrome tabs (20-70 tabs) and runs software like MAMP etc. and I only play low end games like league of legends etc. But the system will be on at least 16 hours a day ( no AC). And also like to ask do I need to purchase RAM as kit for dual channel or same RAM with 2 quantity ( HyperX Fury 8GB 2666MHz DDR4) as HyperX Fury (8x2)16 GB 2666MHz DDR4 kit is out of stock.

m.2 :
Western Digital WD Blue NVME SN550 500GB M.2 2280 PCIe Gen3 Internal Solid State Drive.

Graphics card:
As for graphics card. I don't plan to install any at the moment or maybe not.

RAM: HyperX Fury 8GB 2666MHz DDR4


PS: i am from India - Chennai one of the hottest City. I don't have AC in my room .if you recommend any product from Amazon kindly link only from amazon.in

Is your ram compatible with both motherboards? - Is it listed on their memory QVL?

Do both motherboards cost about the same price?
Have you compared the specs of each against each other? Are there any important (to you) differences?
Have you looked at reviews?

Sounds like you need to get a case with good airflow and get a better than otherwise CPU cooler.

I plan go with gigabyte as it cheap than tuf in my country. For cooler I plan to go with DEEPCOOL GAMMAXX GTE V2. Can recommend ram. I plan get a 16 GB vengeance single ram. For now. Do you recommend to buy ram is kit or 2 quantity. As kits are either costly or out of stock in my country. And can you recommend some budget m.2 nvme SSD. It cost. Alot in my country. Do I need to get a costly m.2 like samsung 970 evo plus with 250 GB or WD BLUE 500 GB or any other . They both cost the same in my country.

RAM: If you look through the memory support list - https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B365M-DS3H-rev-10/support#support-doc
any of those will work with your motherboard.

You can see the M.2 support list on the same link. But all M.2 SSD should work with motherboards that have the sockets for them.
