The B450 Gaming Plus would be the better board here. The B450M is a microATX variant and would not look that great, aesthetically, and offers fewer features.

As far as RAM goes, consult the QVL list for that motherboard. If I had to make a suggestion, perhaps the G-Skill Flare X would be a good choice. It's purpose-built for Ryzen CPU's and motherboards.
