Hello, I need a microATX motherboard for ASUS Prime AP201 case. The processor I will use is 7800x3d. These are the ones I could find, which one do you think I should buy and do you have any suggestions?

The case can fit any micro and mini itx boards. You're main problem is what CPU cooler or gpu you plan to use in this. If you can mention those we can confirm whether it will fit in the case or not.

As for suggestions


It's pricey and doesn't support pcie gen 5 but it's got a lot of features.

If I was you, I would like to use something like X670 or at least B650E (It is just B650 with PCI-E 5.0 16X slot).
Think about AM4 socket, you will know why.

Assuming this is a long term build, an 850w PSU should fit upto 180mm in length that is if you don't have a PSU for the build yet. Seasonic Prime GX should fit in nicely unless you have other reliable PSUs in mind in which case mention us the PSU so we can confirm it fits into your case.

Can't help you much in water cooling as I prefer air cooling and have no experience building water cooling builds.
