So im kinda new with intel build environment, im gonna build a pc with i5 10600kf, is it good if im pair it with msi b460 tomahawk? thanks
 
Solution
Generally yes, h470 is better than B460. Normally I wouldn't advise spending more on H470 due to the extra features not being very useful for most people, however I would in this case so you can upgrade to 11th gen in the future.
Intel is not allowing 11th generation CPUs to work on B460 or H410, so I would avoid those for future upgradability. Typical good old Intel and their greed. smh

I would reccomend a H470 motherboard if you aren't overclocking.

Though, why are you buying an unlocked CPU if you don't plan to OC?

Its my first time hear H470, is it better than b460?

The reason why i buy the unlocked version is because its hard for me to find the 10600 unlocked version, and somehow they have the sameprice
