[Ewing]

Hello, in a few days i will buy a new desktop for gaming. I will buy Ryzen 5 3600 and RX 5700 with 2x16 gb ddr4 gskill.
Now my question is if is necessary AMD X570 chipset because i will don't build Crossfire. Only 1 VGA and 2 hard drive no more....

Thanks

A good quality B450 that is 3000 series ready or has flashback will be fine unless you need a X570 feature.

I'm using Msi b450 Tomahawk max for all of my customer's builds. It's a rock solid board with great Vrm's.

Agree, hard to beat the Tomahawk Max. Just make sure it’s the Max version as this guarantees it’s 3000 series ready.

Other motheraboard?

For x570 motherboards Asus and Gigabyte have the best VRM’s on the sub $200 offerings.

You’ll have to compare what each board comes with.

I picked the Asus TUF x570 and it’s performance has been flawless so far.
