So I'm on a tight budget and I'm not in the US. The difference in cost between an A320 board and the cheapest b450 board in my country is about $60. That's too big of a jump for me to get the b450 because Ik the price difference in the US is a lot smaller.
Will the R3 3300X work fine on an A320 motherboard provided that I can get its BIOS updated? I don't plan to Overclock the CPU because it just doesnt OC that well. I don't care that much about upgradeability I don't mind upgrading to an R7 2700 or an R5 3600X in 2 years time. If the upcoming CPUs do end up being so good, I'll just get a new motherboard, maybe I'll have the money then but I just don't have it right now.
Will I be brutally murdered for picking an A320 mobo with this CPU? It seems like these forums have a very clear opinion, No one is willing to recommend an A320 board. I'm not really giving up much going from B450 to A320. I don't need the fastest USB sockets. As long as everything can run at a 100% It's not a big deal to me atleast until I'm strapped for cash. I could buy a used b450 board but you know what kind of troubles that could bring.
A320 Boards I'm considering: ASUS Prime A320M-E, Gigabyte A320m S2H and MSI A320M-A PRO. These are what's usually available in the market.
What should I do?
