Question Should I change my "asus prime b650m-a wifi ii" motherboard.

[teberzin]

I have a 4070TI GPU and AMD Ryzen 5 7600x CPU in the NZXT H5 Flow case. Some said "Asus Prime B650M-A WIFI II" is a cheap motherboard and I need to change it. What are your thoughts on that?

I was looking for "Asrock B650 PRO RS" and "Asus Tuf Gaming B650-PLUS WIFI" but they seem pretty familiar to me.

Is it failing to meet your needs in any way?

Not really. But I have a right to change it if someone has better suggestion I can change.

I'm thinking of buying "ASUS TUF GAMING B650M-PLUS"

I have to pay an extra 87$ to switch it do you think it worths it?

Just save your money then.

Okay, I thought since they gave me the right to upgrade for 87 bucks it was worth it. If you say so. I will skip the deal.

Smart move, you certainly wouldn't gain any significant performance for the money.

Last question.

One said (on another forum) that switching mine with B650M-HDV/M.2 will make a significant performance boost and will make me save some money (based on the VRM temps). Is that true?

 

[COLGeek]

Save you money, no. That part makes no cents (sense).

Are you OCing your system? If so, what is your typical CPU temperature range (idle and under load)?

I checked the prices and I will just save 12$ not a big deal. I'm not OCing. Can't remember the temp atm (I'm not at home so can't test sorry.)

If not OCing, don't worry about it. All of these motherboards will perform nearly the same.
