Hi,
I just made an order to upgrade me pc with the Ryzen 3700x and I also purchased an msi X570-a pro.
I heard a lot of bad reviews on this mobo but my budget is only like 160$ so I wanted to know what do you think I should do? (I can replace the board)
My main use of the pc is making music and high format videos and less gaming but I still want it to be good for gaming and maybe even OC because the softwares I use use a lot of cpu.
So what do you think? Thank you.

why do you feel an x570 board is the way to go? it's not really needed unless you're planning on using the features it comes with. have you looked at less expensive boards that might have the features you are looking for?

so what about the x570 makes it the choice over the others?

i just built a 3700x system and went with a b450 gigabyte aorus pro wifi. lots of features and pretty solid board for $119

Someone recommended this mobo for me so I went for it without checking first(stupid of me).
But now I have another problem. Apparently I need a jrainbow connection from the mobo to fit my ma410m cooler.
I have 2 options for X470:
Asus x470 dog Strix gaming-i
ASRock master sli x470
