So as I get a little excited about new processors hitting the shelves, I find I'm looking at up grades.
My first budget thought it to run a 3700x on the Asus b450-f rog strix, replacing the 2700x.
At first I considered a 3900x, but this board doesn't handle the 2700x very well, which is why I'd go to a 65 watt 3700x. This isn't a 105 watt friendly mobo. Typical of Asus
I also have been looking at a newer motherboard and going for a 5900x. Possibly an MSI or maybe another Asus if it's a decent deal. Or maybe back to Gigabyte.
Any personal experiences anyone wants to share on a solid 500 series mobo?
I guess we will see what holiday deals and availability look like.
