[SOLVED] Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite for "future proof" 3700x>3950x?

[askmeanything]

Wanna buy 3700 and a new Mobo just so I can upgrade later this year to 3950x or next year when it is cheaper.



Is this mobo gonna be great for 3950x? I don't want to OC at all.

It will do fine with no OC.

Any 570 will be fine, some even the cheapest B350 can handle the 3900X.

AMD Ryzen 9 3900X Tested on Cheap B350 Motherboard

We're testing AMD's 12-core, 24-thread Ryzen 9 3900X flagship on a cheap B350 motherboard. Performance results are good, even overclocking works as well as on X570. Special attention is paid to VRM temperatures, which we measure using a FLIR thermal camera.

If you don't overclock, just get the chepest X570 with the features you need.
