[SOLVED] Will this build work? Motherboards

[jttrueman]

Hi, I hope you can prevent me making a mistake. I am looking at two builds on ccl and not sure if I need the much more expensive motherboard or not. I am aware the board will limit the speed capabilities of 16GB RAM (so will need to get 2.4Ghz rather than 3.2Ghz) but will it have a similar effect on the Graphics and CPU. Don't want to waste £200+ on needless upgrade but don't want to waste the effect of upgrading the other critical components.

• Gigabyte A320M-S2H AMD Socket AM4 Motherboard
• MSI B450 GAMING PLUS AMD Socket AM4 Motherboard

They are to sit with
• Palit GeForce GTX 1660 Ti StormX 6GB GPU
• AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6GHz Hexa Core (Socket AM4) CPU

Go with the b450 board. The a320 chipset is simply not worth it...

Thank you, just for confirmation does this still apply even if the RAM speed gets slowed down from a 3.2Ghz to the 2.4ghz max that ccl will ship with the cheaper board

What does that even mean???
Ryzen works better with fast RAM, ideally 3000mhz-3200mhz is the sweet spot and its better to get a board that works with that.
