So for a Ryzen 3700x would it be best to grab a high end x470 like the crosshair vii or the gaming 7 ? Or a mid-tier x570 like the aorus elit, aorus pro or mpg gaming pro carbon ?
 
Solution
Why are you thinking of high end x470? What features do you need?

If you don't need any special/advanced feature, i'll stick to x570 mid tier (thinking of future pcie4 updates) or x470 mid tier or even b450 to save some money.

To be honest the new X570 lineup's seem a bit overpriced.
You are very well served with a good X470 like the Crosshair or a Taichi, well capable of the new CPUs with easy and they have plenty of features.
In where i live a crosshair vii costs as much as a x570 mpg gaming pro so im not sure which i should buy for a 3700x
