MSI B350 PC MATE or MSI B350 TOMAHAWK?

[ECcGreece]

My title is my question. I bought the Ryzen 5 1600 and now I dont know which motherboard I should choose. I am between b350 pc mate or the tomahawk (both from MSI).
Thanks in advance.

Are you sure? Cause here in Greece everyone chooses the PC mate as the best choice, and no one tells me why

Positive. Go Tomahawk! They are both the same board .... Tomahawk is just more money here in the US due to the fancier looks and lights . Cant go wrong with either.

Well, Tomahawk is more expensive. And I won't tell you the exact reason, but I was just going through the same dilemma and went for PC Mate. Maybe it was many people talking about it making issues with the 1600? Or with overclocking?
NOTE that i also went for a 3200MHz ram (because Ryzen), so maybe it was just that it doesn't support these speeds. Anyway, i chose to let it pass for a reason - so please make sure it's all good and compatible with your build before buying it.
Best of luck
