Plz help me to decide
Usage: heavy multi taking and gaming
Components already selected,
GFX: RX 5700X or GFX 2060
RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3600MHz
PSU: ASUS ROG Strix 650 or 550 depending on GFX
Case: Msi MAG Vampiric 100R ARGB -> because of space issue.
Cooler: Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML120L V2 RGB
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X -> not going to OC
M.2: may go with 500GB drive
Motherboards shortlisted
on higher side: GIGABYTE B550M DS3H, Gigabyte B550M Gaming, Asrock B550M Pro4 ->around 90$
lower-side: GIGABYTE A520M DS3H -> around 60$
Is it VFM go to boards with 90$ for 3600 RAM
or A520M itself is sufficient?
I could go for higher one looking at VRM, but in all the cases same chips may be used with only heatsinks, i am not sure.
Also my future upgrade will be entire PC rather than parts.
Appreciate your guidance, been scratching my head past 2 weeks.
