Hello!
Which B350 Motherboard? MSI Tomahawk or Gigabyte Gaming 3?
I am building new pc , specs :
Ryzen 5 1600
GTX 1080 G1
G.SKILL Flare 2 x 8GB
Seagate 2TB
Samsung SSD 250gb
Seasonic FOCUS Plus - 650W gold 80+ (whatever that means)
I'm relatively new to this so , could you explain in details which motherboard is better for gaming/streaming/recording/editing.
also i would like to hear your opinion about other parts too (if there is better version for the same price/or if any is outdated and so on)
Thanks ^.^

Budget? Here's a TH guide on how to choose a motherboard if it helps.

AMD will be using the same socket (AM4) until 2020 so you'll be fine with any B350 motherboard. One that has good features and price is the ASRock Pro4, it also comes in MATX if a smaller size is needed.

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

Motherboard: ASRock - AB350 Pro4 ATX AM4 Motherboard ($73.98 @ Newegg)
Total: $73.98
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available
