There is no way wether we can say that the stock amount is accurate, but id assume it is.
If it isnt, you get your money back.

Can you tell me if there is any difference between the Tomohawk Max and the Gaming Plus Max for the b450. So this
MSI PERFORMANCE GAMING X470 GAMING PLUS MAX AM4 AMD
vs
MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX AM4 AMD B450 SATA 6Gb/s ATX AMD Motherboard
I plan to oc my 3600x and want to know if there are any differences between these two boards.

The x470 board supports sli while the b450 doesnt. No real benefit to multi gpu anyhow.

The x470 board seems to have different cpu power delivery and an extra 4 pin for power. Shouldnt matter for a 3600x.

Go with the cheaper one

That’s the thing man b450 tomahawk is sold out everywhere like it was in stock last night and this morning it’s not. I might have to go with the b470 due to availability what do u think ? I mean there are no performance differences right ? Just the SLI thing

The X470 gaming plus will work fine.

You can also check out the
MSI B450 Gaming PRO max and MSI B450 gaming plus max

These models are very similar to the B450 tomahawk max and are often cheaper. They have slight inferior VRM cooling and different looks. But both are still very good.

sadly all of those are out of stock except the b470. I am going to go with it and like you said they are the same board pretty much right ? Same feature and all?

X470 is actually a little better. Mostly same features however.

Sadly my 3600 cl16 ram isn't supported on there
It has higher and lower frequency ram but not 3600

3600mhz will work. With MSi you can select basically any speed regardless of what it says on the site.
