[SOLVED] Which B560 motherboard for (possibly under 100€)?

[gi-sei no Rei]

I'm building a desktop for home coding projects:

• i5 10400
• some B560 motherboard
• 2x 8 GB DDR4 3200 MHz

I read ASRock motherboards are trash. I'm planning to OC ram to 3200. Here are some mobos I can get under 100€:

• MSI B560M-A PRO 77€
• GIGABYTE B560M 78€
• GIGABYTE GA-B560M D3H 94€
• GIGABYTE GA-B560M DS3H V2 94€
• MSI B560M PRO 99€
• ASUS PRIME B560M-K INTEL B560 100€

Which one to go for? Which one has the best VRM cooling?

Feel free to make other suggestions. If there's a clear difference in performance, I could go over 100€.

And RAM of course. Which is better to bundle with the mobo and i5 10400?

I am thnking the MSI pro or the Gigabyte ds3h myself.

Actually, VRM wise, the Asrock B560m Pro4 is decent. Those other listed boards are hot garbage. This board isn't much more, than your most expensive one, and far better VRM solution.

I was taking into serious consideration the Aorus Elite after opening this thread as well. Where did you find the VRM tests?
