The fourth product on our list is ASUS T U F GAMING X570-PLUS AM4 ATX Motherboard … This
is our second pick for the best budget Motherboards for Ryzen 9 3900x! At this time, you can get
it at around a maximum of 200$! It weighs 2.6 pounds, and measures 13 by 11 by 3-inches!
It comes with PCI-e 4.0 support, dual PCI-e 4.0 M.2 slots, Wi-Fi, and a USB 3.1 Gen 2
Type-C port outback, among other features! The ASUS TUF GAMING Motherboard is built on
the AMD X570 chipset supporting second- and third-generation AMD Ryzen processors with
an AM4 socket. It has four memory slots for up to 128GB of dual-channel DDR4 RAM, which
can run up to 4400 MHz when overclocked. For storage, it's equipped with eight SATA III
ports and two 22110 M.2 slots. There are two PCI-e 4.0 x 16 slots for graphics cards, which
can run at 16 x 4 when both slots are filled, and another three PCI-e 4.0 x 1 slot for other
P C I-based hardware. Other integrated features include Realtek L8200A Gigabit LAN and Realtek
ALC S1200A 8-channel HD audio. The AMD X570 chipset is designed around 3rd
generation AMD Ryzen 3000-series processors. Along with multiple improvements, its most
noteworthy one is the addition of PCI-e 4.0. The PCI-e 4.0 has roughly double the bandwidth
of P C I-e 3.0, which is beneficial for graphics cards, networking devices, N V M-e drives,
and more. The P C B is jet-black with a lined pattern
making its way from the bottom-right corner through the left VRM area and rear IO.
The rear IO shield has TUF Gaming branding on top with some yellow accents scattered
throughout the board. Some of the pros of this product include;
a low price… Debug LEDs… USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-C port… and Wi-Fi included!
A con for this product; is the lack of front panel USB 3.1, Gen2 port!
The DIMM slots alternate black and grey, in keeping with the overall visual theme of the
board, giving some accent to the all-black PCI-e slots.
Additionally, the top slot is protected with Asus Safe slot metal wrapping. Other connectors
and slots are black, except for the RGB headers! ASUS T U F GAMING X570-PLUS AM4 ATX Motherboard:
The third product on our list is MSI MEG X570 ACE Motherboard… our pick for the best High-End
Motherboard for Ryzen 9 3900X! It is available at around 370$!
It measures 12-inch width, 9.6-inch in-depth while weighing a total of 2.2 pounds!
Equipped with a 14-phase VRM solution, a well-designed onboard cooling system, and triple M.2 slots,
the MSI MEG X570 ACE is aiming to prove its worth in the enthusiast segment of the AM4
market! Aside from the power delivery solution and
visual pointers, the MSI MEG X570 ACE is well equipped with useful features. You get three
M.2 slots, all of which can be used simultaneously whilst also featuring a smart cooling system.
And for networking gurus, 2.5Gb Ethernet, and 2.4Gbps 8 0 2.1 1 ax Wi-Fi, accompany
the usual Gigabit port. One clear area of differentiation for MSI
is its heatsink design. The inclusion of a heat pipe connecting the MOSFETs to the chipset
heatsink is touted as improving motherboard operation by making a portion of the fan’s
active cooling capacity available to the VRM. MSI put seven fan headers on the motherboard;
all of them are hybrid PWM-DC mode fans. By default, the two headers circled in red are
in PWM mode while the five circled in blue are DC mode fans. However, you can change
the mode of each header individually. The UEFI BIOS is pretty much identical to
the previous ones from MSI for both Intel and AMD platforms. You have both an advanced
mode and an easy mode, where you will do most of your overclocking. Otherwise, the UEFI
is loaded with all the latest features and settings to tune your new 3rd generation Ryzen
CPU, including the FCLK. The fan control is quite good, and it's in the form of a GUI,
and you have control over the chipset fan. Some of the pros for this product include;
All three long PCI-e and M.2 slots are enabled simultaneously… Superior DRAM overclocking
data rate… PCH heat pipe may allow greater fan idle time… and 2.5Gb Ethernet, plus
Gigabit Ethernet, plus Wi-Fi 6! A con for this product, only one P C I-e x1
slot can be used at a time
A notable design feature is MSI's RGB Infinity Mirror 2, which is integrated into the rear
panel cover. The rear panel IO comes attached with a black and red preinstalled IO shield.
There is also an LED Debug, a front panel USB 3.1 G2 Type-C, an overclocker's toolkit
with power-reset buttons, and an MSI Boost dial which gives users the option to use the
onboard CPU overclocking profiles without entering the BIOS!
MSI MEG X570 ACE!
The second product on our list is ASRock X570 Taichi! This is our pick for the Best Micro-ATX
Motherboard for Ryzen 9 3900X! It is available for around 200$!
As for the ASRock X570 Taichi, it holds to the Taichi theme, but with a significant update
to the implementation. The new-look is modernized and features an even more premium build quality
and feature set—from the newly integrated rear I-O shield to the metal backplate or
intricate cog and gear motif. The ASRock X570 Taichi even features Wi-Fi 6 support, offering
the best wireless connectivity available. For power delivery, it relies on a 14 phase
VRM design, which should handle even the yet-to-release AMD Ryzen 3950X.
The box is of a new design, it's larger and quite nice. The packaging is excellent and
should do a great job of protecting the motherboard. The accessory package includes four SATA 6Gb
per second, WI-FI antenna, Hex screwdriver, SLI-HB bridge, case badge, and M.2 screws.
ASRock put six fan headers on the motherboard, and the one circled in blue is the 1A PWM
header for the CPU fan. The other five headers circled in red are rated for up to 2A and
are hybrid PWM-DC mode header. The rear IO panel features six USB 3.0 ports,
two USB 3.1 ports; one type-A port and one type-C… clear CMOS button, Flashback button,
WIFI antenna, 1G LAN, HDMI, PS-2 keyboard and mouse, and 7.1 gold plated audio outputs
with S-P D I F out. At the bottom of the motherboard, we find
a power button, reset button, POST code display, and two USB 2.0 internal headers. We also
find an addressable RGB LED header and a normal RGB LED header.
At the center of the motherboard near the CPU socket, we find an RGB LED header and
a single USB header for AMD's Prism cooler. The motherboard features one 8-pin CPU power
header and another optional 4-pin header. Some of the pros for this product include;
Three P C I-E 4.0 M.2 slots… 600 A VRM… Wifi 6… Fan, USB, and RGB headers near CPU
socket is smart… RGB control within the UEFI!
A con for this product is that; the noisy fan must be manually turned down!
The VRM is in a 12+2 phase configuration, and it uses doublers to get the phase count
up to 12 phases. The PWM controller is the new controller from Intersil and it's a 7-phase
PWM controller in a 6+1 phase mode that outputs to seven ISL6617 doublers!
And coming in the first place, We have the MSI B450I Gaming Plus AC! This is our pick
for the Best Mini-ITX Motherboard for Ryzen 9 3900X! you can get it for around 150$!
This board is of course a mini-ITX motherboard so it has a pretty small footprint, but perfect
for those small form factor builds. MSI does keep the gaming theme on this board with a
black PCB with black and red accents. The two heatsinks are black and have a red “zig-zag”
design on them. Taking up a good part of the board is AMD’s
AM4 CPU socket. This socket supports first and second-generation Ryzen processors, but
since this is a B450 chipset you will get the second generation features like XFR2 and
Precision Boost Overdrive. The board has a 6+2 power phase design (6 CPU, 2 Memory) and
power delivery components are cooled by a pretty large heatsink. Above the CPU socket
are your 4-pin CPU fan and optional CPU fan headers. Besides those you have your EZ Debug
LEDs which will help you troubleshoot any issues if your system is not booting. Hiding
at the top of the board is your 8-pin EPS connector.
Moving over from the CPU socket you have your two DDR4 DIMM slots, which support up to 32GB
of DDR4-3466+(OC) memory. Along the edge of the board, you’ll find a single USB 2.0
header. USB 3.0 header, 24-pin ATX power connection, four SATA ports, and two 4-pin RGB headers.
The RGB headers can be controlled by MSI’s Mystic Light software.
Along the bottom of the board, you of course have your single PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slot
which is metal reinforced. This is good as this is such a small board and if you install
a larger graphics card you are going to want the stability. Right above the PCI-Express
slot is the heatsink for the chipset. At the bottom corner of the board is the audio
solution. MSI has gone with the Realtek AL887, which offers 7.1-channel High Definition audio.
There are a couple of high-end audio capacitors visible here as well as the PCB isolation
traces. Some of the pros for this product include;
Over-clocking capabilities… Impressive VRM configuration and VRM cooling… Built-in
WiFi AC and Bluetooth… Full-blown B450 chipset features!
However, a con for this product is that it has Only One N V M E!
Overclocking on Ryzen systems is very easy to do, sometimes even easier than doing on
Intel systems. With this board, there are a few different ways you could do your overclock.
The easiest would be the Game Boost function, which will run a few cores at the 4.15 GHz.
MSI is using their Click BIOS 5 on this motherboard. You should be pretty familiar with it if you’ve
purchased an MSI motherboard in the past few years.
Thank you for watching it! And that’s all for now! Hope to see you now in the next video!
Till next time, see you guys later!
