In this video we review the best X670 motherboard for Ryzen 7000 and best X670E motherboard for Ryzen 7000. We review the differences between the AM5 motherboard and AM4 motherboard sockets and product life cycle. We explain X670 vs B650 motherboard chipsets, as well as X670E vs B650E motherboard chipsets. We review all the new Ryzen X670 motherboard features like DDR5 & EXPO, PCIE Gen 5, USB4, AM4 vs AM5 cooler compatibility, and new audio codecs. We make specific product recommendations for best X670 motherboard for Ryzen 7600X, best X670 motherboard for Ryzen 7700X, best X670 motherboard for Ryzen 7900X, and best X670 motherboard for Ryzen 7950X motherboard. The best X670E motherboard for Ryzen 7600X and 7700X will likely be a budget X670 motherboard or midrange one, though the midrange boards can be used for the Ryzen 7900X and Ryzen 7950X. Above the midrange, while there are some specific niche boards like best creator X670E motherboard for Ryzen 7000 or best overclocking X670 motherboard for Ryzen 7000, most of the features are not worth the money if it will cost you performance in other areas. Ryzen B650 Motherboard launch is October 10th and we plan to primarily recommend B650 as the best motherboard for Ryzen 7000 in gaming.

I have to thank you the fact that you DO take the time to explain even the simplest and basic concepts so even debutants can understand you. It is a HUGE added value to your videos, something missing in other TH-camrs that are maybe for more experienced audience with the same high quality content but hard for some of us to follow. Please keep it like that, cheers!
Thank you for the great feedback! That's always our goal so its wonderful to hear. Hope you keep enjoying the content
Yea as a dog I'm going to build my first PC end of this year.
First time watching your videos I’ve primarily watched GN as I only like actual nerds with real informative information and statistics rather than “for the views” kinda people. Liked and subbed! I’ll be following along as I plan my upgrade from x570 gen 3/3080
Don’t plan on doing my first ever build until around January. Have been watching everything for almost a year. Hoping by then things cool down and maybe AMD will have their GPUs out by then too. Your videos are the best explaining at bang for buck hardware.
Glad you enjoy them! I think January will be a great time to build a PC with V-Cache versions of the Ryzen 7000 series likely out in 1Q.
@@PCBuilderChannel So i will till January then & Are you sure the V-cache version is launching that soon ?
@@harishFx16 I have q2 2023 for release date
im getting sum stuff for my build now . since its never been this low from msrp
Did you do it and how did it go?
Amazing video man thanks for being a huge help to the PC community.
Thank you for another great video! 😸
Waiting to see the b series lineup too!
(Still looking at the 5000 series for my first build, but damn! Can't help but being excited about the new shiny tech! 😸)
Thanks Valentina! Gotta love shiny new tech (;
HECK YES!! finally showing the steel legend series some love lol.... i still absolutely love my b550matx steel legend mobo.. the finish is just super clean and gives me everything i need. and has no issues running the 5800x
"More Star Trek than consumer tech"
I know you're proud of that one! Definitely got a laugh out of me. Great video as always Jason!
Glad you enjoyed it! It did make me laugh (;
Bonus content from Jason. That always makes a day better. I currently am very happy with my 5600x paired with a 6700xt so I doubt I will upgrade to a 7000 anytime soon. I would probably go with a 670 if I did upgrade
Good morning fellow Jason! And yes you have a great combo, no reason to change at the moment (:
@Shorts Kittu Cats All the Jason in one thread! lol
You can edit 4k on a 6700xt, it'll just take a long time compared with its' nVidia counterparts. AMD GPUs are a solid choice for gaming, but for productivity and multitasking, nVidia still has a significant advantage, apples to apples. Given nVidia's recent behavior, I don't blame anyone wanting to avoid them, but time is money after all.
I don't do any video editing. Gaming performance is amazing
Price vs benefit..you have a 5900x variant cheaper than 5800x3d anytime time you want, which is also a gaming perspective ugrade...so, a value only for 350 to 450$ more vs 1000+$ cpu,mb,ram of 7000 series to last more than 3 years..Even for a new built...
Good work as always Jason!
Received my Asus Rog Strix X670E-E gaming Wifi and 7950X 2 days ago 😊
THANK YOU! You have the best videos and they have made me so confident in building my PC. I've learned so much from you and I just subscribed to your channel yesterday. Been studying PC build for about a month and soon I will build my own hopefully in a couple of months or less. I am buying parts with pride and knowledge thanks to you! Keep up the great work and blessing to our community!
Thank you so much for the amazing feedback! Thank you for the sub and best wishes on your build!
I’m so grateful I found this channel. Quality content, straight to the point, useful info without bombarding us with ads and multiple sponsors per video like LTT. Thank you!!
Thank you for the great feedback! It means a lot to us. Hope you keep enjoying the content!
Don't forget to buy our screwdriver!!
@@kreygasmed7314 I mean to be fair that screwdriver looks pretty fuckin sweet
So quick to produce this vid, love the content! Keep it up Jason and Mrs. Jason 😁
Thank you!! Not going to lie, out two cat two person team is exhausted lol. But wanted to get useful stuff out asap (:
Thank you so much for the coverage. You did all the research so I can just to pick the right one for me.
That's great to hear! So glad it was helpful
As always, great details! Looking forward to your boost your build series on some upcoming Zen 4 builds for people.
Thank you! Me too! We will start those up again soon
I only just watched this having made my purchase 2 weeks ago (ASUS TUF Gaming plus WiFi) and pleased that you liked it. I went for this because I needed a decent motherboard to go with the 7900 that so impressed me at low power. If you're spending this much, I reckon the lower midrange is best and I don't mind paying an extra 10% for a fuller set of capability (even if I don't need it now), a nice look + I like ASUS boards. Glad you covered it and keep up the good stuff.
Glad you got what you needed! Thanks for sharing (:
It seems a lot of motherboards are starting to skimp on audio connectors. Thanks again for this detailed overview!!
Glad it was helpful! And yes its frustrating
Just use a soundcard
Awesome video PC Builder! I bought yesterday the ASRock X670E Steel Legend with ryzen 9 7950x and the sweet spot ddr5 g.skill tridentZ5 neo RGB 6000mh 16gb x2 cl30! Glad to see this motherboard in your recommended section. I was a bit worried about audio but I will see later how it sounds. The only thing I don't like in this motherboard is the second pcie x16 slot with only 4x connected. Kinda dissapointed in that but overall this motherboard looks fantastic!
Thank you for sharing! Glad you got what you needed.
I have just purchased the ASROCK 670XE PRO RS for my Ryzen 7900x be at home with. Never spent a great deal on a motherboard in the past so this was quite expensive for my liking (£350 gbp). The audio codec isn't really a issue for me as if i want to improve that you can by other means. But all the other stuff is very nice and it does look great.
Glad you got what you need! Let us know how you like it
Great video. Thank you! I do hope the cost of ddr5 falls further. The entry cost outlay required to use the new AMD cpus is a little high.
Agreed! Ryzen 7000 value is going to be all about the platform costs. And thank you!
It's ABSOLUTELY REDICULOUS especially with these x670e motherboards where the price is around $500 just for the motherboard and then $300 for the cheapest cpu. You can almost build a pretty decent PC ( as long as you're willing to buy a used gpu) for the same cost as the mobo and cpu. IT'S FU@KING RIDICULOUS
YES!!! I got the steel legend asrock board because it was the cheapest x670e board that I saw... Now I'm happy with my decision, thanks!
Nice!
Hello! I'm from Brazil and I love your analyses!
Thank you very much and please keep up the amazing work!!
Hello Brazil! Thank you for watching (:
I'm really glad I watched this video, seems like I was about to over spend like $200 more because there were a few things I didn't understand and I was ignorant. But yes I agree with you, after the $335~ price point, the cost of these boards soar way high and there are significant diminishing returns for the money spent. Great job on the video! I'm grateful for the explanation.
Really glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching
@@PCBuilderChannel btw quick question, for boards that don't have SPDF port, do I have to buy an S/PDIF mini board separately and use motherboard's built in S/PDIF connector or is there a work around??
Hello, you videos are always very helpful and i appreciate them. Is it possible if you can make a video explaining power stages and what motherboards to avoid when it comes to this and in general when it comes to certain features being lacking or features that increases the price but are not for everyone?
Honestly none of the gen5 nvme I've seen specs for even max out gen4 bandwidth. We saw the same thing with the first gen4 nvme not being able to saturate gen3 bandwidth. There's probably a measurable difference if you set up ur benchmark just right, but nothing anyone would ever be able to tell.
Congrats on getting this video out so early. Ur a machine lol
Haha thanks Christopher! Not going to lie our two cat two person team is exhausted lol
Building a new Pc after 10 years. This was a great catch-up video on all the latest tech
So glad it was helpful!!
Hey jason your videos are great thanks for putting in the work for us. I have an MSI b450 gaming plus atx mobo. Can you tell me if it has bios flashback or how I can find out. Thanks in advance.
I'm planning on getting a 4090 with a ryzen x/x3d cpu with the MSI Pro x670-p mobo. I had been waiting but it doesn't look like prices on gpu's are coming down anytime soon so I've finally decided to pull the trigger on a build. This video was exactly what I was looking for. I was almost ready to get the MSI MEG X670E ACE but decided against it after watching this. I don't think I need to buy a more expensive board just bc.
Thanks for the round-up. I went with the Asus ROG Crosshair X670E Gene. I wanted a mATX board and I didn't mind the high price since I'll keep this board through several generations of future AMD CPUs and it had all the enthusiast features I wanted in a compact form factor, such as USB4 and three M.2 slots. It is a beautifully-engineered board which looks great, too.
Thanks. This has helped me understand these motherboards more
Glad it helped!
No plans on building a pc at all and watched the whole thing. Learned a bit, too.
So glad you enjoyed!!
Hey! Great video, but Im asking if u could do some type of video when the B series launches with some kinda of build with the new 7600x... it would be cool cuz im trying to build my first pc and idk if I should wait for this new series of cpu/mb/ram... so yeah thanks anyways for the great video ;D
This video will help me a lot. Right now I have gtx1080 with intel i5 6600k. The cpu is driving me crazy with it's bottlenecks.
Thank you a lot. 👍
So glad its helpful!
Thanks really informative video just want to know, can I buy any of the cheap motherboards from start of the video for 7950x? there wont be any power issue right?
Hey I’m looking at the asrock taichi Carrara mob would you recommend?
Thank you for the level of detail in your reviews!
Glad it's useful! Thank for the feedback it means a lot
@@PCBuilderChannel Thank youuu!! I have a query, I'm Kind of ready to build a new machine with Ryzen 7000 series and a RTX 4000 series, but I was wondering, what's your recomendation about it. When could it be a good time to buy these items??
Greetings from South America!!
Amazing Analysis and very very detailed and good explanation, thank you so much 🙂👍🏻🐈
Thank you! So glad it was helpful!
You are such a fontain of knowledge,that I can understand. Can I ask you, if you conecting your audio,such as headphone, microphone, by USB does the system uses the audio codec 1220 or or the 4080, in these motherboards? Or we have to connect to the rear pannel with the input jack?Does it matter?
I've used to Asrock x670e Pro Rs for a while now and I am supper satisfied, especially on the bios and firmware side and gen5 m.2 is something that made my workflow smooth.
You're the goat man.
One thing I'll say about motherboards, I'll overspend as much as it takes for a dr debug lol. It's crazy that the motherboard manufacturers make you pay $300+ for a couple of seven segment displays
Thanks Jason! I need USB ports more than PCI-E slots and I don't overclock much... sounds like I may get the most basic board just for longevity purposes. PCI-E 5.0 for graphics is a total waste even for the next few years as you said, so 'maybe' I'll have a PCI-E 5.0 SSD at some point, but that's about it. I hope you'll review the B series when it's out next week!
So glad it was helpful! And we will definitely cover the B series when it's out and we have all the pricing!
I always enjoy your content. Good work
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed!
My god this video was exactly what i was searching for, greatly structured, exactly what i was asking myself with all questions covered. Thank you so much for the great content! Looking out for your video on the B650 Series :)
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the feedback it means a lot. B650 video coming today at 10m EST!
Is there a well supported tool for detecting what speeds are supported by a usb-c cable and/or port? Seems useful for the future.
amazing Jason as usual
So glad it was helpful!
It's great. I like so many TH-cam tech people in this space. I like LTT, GN, Paul, PC Builder, Gamers Meld, etc, all for different reasons. You all do a different style video, deliver different levels of entertainment, and some deliver information more quickly than others. Some are more detailed, some are more summarized. But I like it all. So cheers. Even though I've already seen two other AM5 motherboard videos, I'm still watching you.
Thank you for watching! :)
LTT ? Really? Or did you just feel like you had to include them?
@@hautedaug I listed channels that I watch. I'm not sure why you felt the need to single out LTT.
Graphically Challenged is pretty good too.
New Sub I was wondering a few things off topic. I'm thinking about getting a new high end Laptop from either CLX or Falcon NW the DRX or OSISIS. Which in your opinion is the coolest temp cpu i7 10700k 11700k 12700h 3,5 ghz i9 11900k

Our pleasure! Thanks for watching
I am aiming for the ASUS Proart. Thanks for reaffirming my choices :D.
Glad we could help!
Picked up a 7700x with the free 32 gig ram promo from microcenter but waiting on boards. Getting a cheaper board with no PCIe5 or only 1 just does not seem to make much sense unless you plan on ripping out the board to replace it in the future. Features wise, as a content creator, I REALLY like the idea of the Asus Pro Art.... dual PCI-e 5 if I want to run dual gpus, more importantly for some fast NVMEs to work off of locally and transfers.... (each video I do is easily 100 to 200 gigs). And of course the idea of thunderbolt sounds great for color grading monitors and transferring files to either a DAS... OR 10 gig ethernet if transfering to a NAS... oh.... and it does not look like the neon/RGB fairy spit up all over it. lol. Yes, it's $500... but seems more like a "buy once, cry once" proposition for at least the next 5 years or so. with the cheaper boards... its like might as well have stayed on Ryzen 5000 and X570. =) And I am guessing the new Radeon cards coming out in November will be PCI-e 5.0.
Nice! Glad you got what you needed
Honestly gr8 work u r doing. U made the explanation so much easy, I was getting more n more focussed in what u were saying. Keep it up.
Btw, want to get ur opinion on a PC build that I wana do. I was originally planning to do a DDR4 build with 5900x for main use of running VMs, which would make it more affordable. But since Ryzen 7000 launched, which shows a lot of performace uplift, like crossing 5+ GHz, I literally got excited. But then I learned the bitter truth, that is, Expensive CPU + Expensive MOBO + Expensive RAM + Expensive SSD PCIe5. And since AMD mentioned only for it to be there till like late 2025, should I go with Ryzen 7000 or going with 5900x/64GB RAM DDR4/1TB SSD Gen 3, will have me covered for like next 10 years for mostly running VMs?
That's a great question. I think that 5900X build will be an absolutely beast. But you might want to wait a bit and see how the Ryzen 7000 performance numbers change when the next gen gpus become available next month. For more on that see the 7900X build we did on the channel. The launch of the new Intel CPUs and Black Friday will also likely affect Ryzen 5000 and Ryzen 7000 pricing so it might not hurt to give it a few weeks and see what happens.
pcie gen 5 graphics cards would be a game changer. Even if it wouldn't saturate a gen 4 16x lanes bc i would then have no qualms about running it at gen 5 8x lanes. This would then save me 8 lanes which i could use for a whole lot of different things
Looking forward to receive my Taichi X670E. This board is a beast of motherboard, and with decent price compared to other brands.
Let us know how you like it if you can!
Yo watched this like 5 times and am a bit torn
What's ur opinion on Asus Pro Art X670e vs the Asus Strix Gaming x670e-e? I'm building a new workhorse pc that is literally all purpose from 4k editing to high end VR gameplay and recording, streaming etc. I'm really torn between the 2. I don't need the 10gb lan but the usb 4 seems nice to have, the 16+2 power phase concerns me but I only plan on using the automatic overclocking features of the 7950x would this be enough? Full build should be 4090, 1300w psu, 32gb 6000 ddr5 and a 7950x. Only reason I passed on the asrock x670e tachi was the lack of the lower pcie lane but if you feel that would be a better option i'm still considering it! Any guidance would be appreciated!
Should i get the Asus TUF Gaming X670E Plus WIFI or the ASRock X670E Steel Legend? Same Price here in Austria (EU)
Thx for the good work
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching
Hey could you help me pick some equipment for a gaming pc build.
I was thinking of a price around 2200$ for the pc and a monitor.
I would choose to go for an Intel core i9 11700k with a gtx 3070 or 2080ti. Additionally I would choose 1 or 2 tb ssd with a liquid cooler (not custom made) but I dont know what mainboard to get etc.
Keep on growing sir!
Thank you we are working on it! :)
Thanks you , learn a lot mother board knowledge
Happy to help!
Now this is what I was waiting for.
Hey which cpus are better tha new intel ones or the 7000 amd series?
What motherboard would you recommend for a ryzen 7 7700x with a 3080 and I would like to be able to upgrade these in the future so what mother board would be slightly over kill but after some upgrades would be perfect.
came here for the first time and to see the MSI PRO X670P, and am happy I did!
Welcome to the channel! Glad it worked out :)
do premium ALC codecs matter (ALC 4080) if you're just gonna plug your motherboard into a DAC/Amp or receiver?
Thanks ☺️👍🏼
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome videos, can you also make ram comparison for zen 4.
I'd like to post some clarification surrounding USB4, USB-C and Thunderbolt, which is important for those creators depending on Thunderbolt devices.
USB-C by itself is just a connector; it doesn't specify anything about what it should be capable of (well mostly). The comparison is actually between USB4 and USB3 (and all of its substandards, like 3.1, 3.2 gen1, 3.2 gen2, 3.2 gen2x2, 10gbps, 20gbps, 40gbps, DP, PD, etc.). One thing to mention is that the extra connectivity, like higher power delivery and displayport, are constrained to be possible only through USB-C.
The dangerous thing is that USB4 is not Thunderbolt 4, despite them using the same connector type. While a Thunderbolt 4 port is backwards compatible as a USB4 port, it is not the same the other way around. Thunderbolt 4 by itself uses an entirely different protocol, but when you plug in an USB device, it basically functions as a USB4 port but with all substandards/connectivity included. A Thunderbolt port will need to have that lightning bolt symbol next to the port to indicate it being a Thunderbolt-capable port.
At the moment of writing, only the ASRock X670E Taichi offers USB4+TB4 connectivity, and the Gigabyte Aero D that is not released yet (which will have USB4+TB3). The other X670(E) boards that have USB4 (which right now are from ASUS) do NOT support the Thunderbolt protocol. Most remaining ASUS, Gigabyte and ASRock boards have a thunderbolt pin-header, for which you must buy a brand specific add-in card (AiC) that will slot into a PCIe slot (which will probably need x8 PCIe4.0 lanes?) used to add USB4+TB4 connectivity. None of these AiCs have been released yet. However, that ASUS ProArt Creator motherboard recommended for creators in the video does not have a TB4 header, and will therefore never support Thunderbolt.
So if you need Thunderbolt support (to connect devices using a Thunderbolt controller), get the ASRock X670E Taichi, wait for the Gigabyte Aero D, or get a motherboard that will have a USB4+TB4 AiC.
again you are a voice of reason - thank you 😊
We try! (:
Hi Jason, like your videos. AT 8.34m you say B560, but I think you meant B650. Correct me if i am wrong. Keep up the good work!!
Doh! Yep reversed some numbers there. Thanks!
Great video, thank you, but I'd like to hear/learn more about "audio codecs" on motherboard... How to know which ones are high quality and which ones are not, and what exactly is the purpose of "audio codec", what's that thing exactly, how can you use it, is it for headphones, speakers or what, etc... :)
On x670 it is pretty binary because there are no boards with "middle step" codecs like the ALC1100, ALC1200, etc. They are either entry level ones ALC897, or they immediately jump up to the best available (ALC1220 & ALC4080). I do expect we'll see some more of the middle step ones in B650 as board makers look to trim costs down a bit more. When we do the best motherboard for Ryzen 7000, we will do an audio section and go into codecs a little more in detail - just waiting for B650 to launch.
what combo do you recommend . Ryzen mobo combo. im building my 1st pc
Best value IMO is the Steel Legend. Even tho I'd probably go for the MSI PRO x670-P, but that is now also sold out.
So exited for this video we need a best cooler and memory video next!!!!
We're working on it! (:
absolutly love the videosssss
but 13th gen intel might put ryzen 7000 on the chopping block becuase ddr4 and you can use older z690
like you said pcie gen 5 ssds are useless but z690 does support pcie 5.0 x16 bandwith for extra extra furureproofing

Running a 5800x rn. I might go for a 7950X with the Asus Tuf board. Seems nice for the "price"
as always awesome video. did you see they shot the am4 AMD CPU prices back up after dropping there new ones yesterday. the 5950x 5900x 5800x3d all shot back up 100 bucks overnight
Interesting....
I don't see a 100$ price increase, but picking the 5800x3D for example, it is up 20 bucks on average.
@@x8jason8x yesterday the 5950x was 499 on Amazon and micro center 5900 was 80 cheaper and 5800x3d was about 70 cheaper and they were for brand new. today the 5950 is 699 at Amazon
@@donaldsmith881 Yeah there are some extreme examples, but I pulled prices from everywhere on the tally. 5950x is 639 on amazon where I'm sitting though. 5900x on amazon, direct from AMD is only 368 though, so it's almost as if they know they're gonna have a rush at the 5950x.
Fantastic workstation platform! Can't wait for the zen4 x3d reviews for us gamers.
Don't expect a Zen4 vcache myself for at least a year. The heat these things are throwing isn't promising in that regard.
@@x8jason8x Agree! If the pilot product for v-cache, 5800x3d, is anything to form a baseline from it runs crazy hot. When I overclocked my not great bin of a 5800x to 4.7 ghz all core, liquid metal was needed to pull as much heat from the CPU as possible. Its really alarming that zen 4 was designed to run at 95 degrees C.
Rumor is that they will be announced at CES in January. We will be attending in person for the first time so I'm hyped!
@@PCBuilderChannel Oh really? Might be going to Vegas myself around then, the better half has never been as an adult, so she's overdue. lol
@@PCBuilderChannel That's kinda what I was thinking too.
Any of these more expensive options would bring an advantage for people looking into building high end VR systems?
Jason hits us midweek !? What a great surprise🤩
It's a crazy week! (;
Not going to lie our two cat two person team is exhausted, but happy to get this content out for those who need it!
Personally I have done some upgrades of my desktop computers in the past but the main system I never changed, my first computer I did upgrade the memory once but I wouldn't do that now, I also upgraded the graphics card but that was only once, what I upgraded the most are my hard drives.
I always find myself adding more hard drives at a later point.
I'd recommend to get the best system you can buy for the budget, that is everything except for the graphics card and hard drives, just get the bare minimum hard drive space to run the OS on but get the best hard drive there is for the space that you need, get the best graphics card that you can buy for your budget but since you can always get a better graphics card later I'd have a higher priority for the core parts that you aren't going to upgrade later so I'd get a bit lesser GPU to start out and use the money for better core parts and buy the best GPU later if I have to.
I've always built my system with future proofing in mind but the last couple times that I've built my systems I haven't upgraded anything except for more hard drive space, didn't need to upgrade the GPU or anything else and my latest system I'm using for about 10 years now, with the same hardware and I only added more hard drives.
Now to keep up with the latest games I have to buy a complete new system so upgrading this old system doesn't make any sense and I think that most people do this, just keep that in mind when you buy a complete new system that the whole future proofing thing isn't really necessary and over the top and most likely you'll never even make use of it because by the time that those new hardware components are out you'll need to buy a complete new system anyways because you'll be using the old system for years and years already and it won't make sense to upgrade the old system anymore.
Hi Jason. Thank you for all of the great content and for making buy decisions easy for us. I want to make a top tier amd cpu amd gpu (when new gpus release)pc. Could you start a pc part picker list for people like me? I'm still confused about an adequate cooler and RAM to go for. Thank you in advance!
Hello! So glad you are enjoying. I've got a 7900X build you can check out on the channel now. When the new GPUs come out we will do lots of sample builds to help you design your builds so stay tuned!
@@PCBuilderChannel fantastic! Thank you for the super quick reply! I am looking forward to those videos!
Hey, when are you going to revisit this clip? Willing to build for AM5, and your video was really helpful. Was wondering if the Asus ROG STRIX X670E-F GAMING WIFI or Asus TUF GAMING X670E-PLUS WIFI are still the ways to go and if you still recommend those.
Thanks!
Asus are cpu burners
Thanks for all this great info. I admit to being overwhelmed. I feel a learn a lot but know less than before. Would you please consider an occasional video is targeted for those of us who are not hobbyist but are embarking on a rare build because we will learn something, its a good project with my grandson, and the nice sense of accomplishment. I'm really looking for good ways to find my sweet spot system.
We try to do a number of videos for new and returning builders. Start with our PC Parts explained video in the "How to build a PC" playlist on the main channel page to get started and we offer a number of general videos on RAM, CPUs, GPUs, and more there too along with specific build guides. Hope that helps!
@@PCBuilderChannel Thanks
Great video. Still seriously doubt I upgrade my X470 until B750 arrives, at which point DDR5 prices should be much better.
Glad you've got what you need for now!
do you think nzxt will be launching an am5 socket mobo?
how are these x670e boards same price or cheaper than a regular x670? might as well just go for the 670e
Have you tried installing Win 10 onto a gigabyte board? It seems to lack the driver necessary for the NVME M.2 drive and their website doesn’t have a driver for it either.
Only reason I can think of for pcie gen 5 is having a few VMs running on the same drive?? But haven’t seem this benchmarked so it would be a shot in the dark.
What would you recommend between AS Rock X670E Steel legend and ASUS Strix B650E-E. With current Newegg offers they’re both in the same range. I’m a novice overclocker and I would like to keep the board I get for the next 5 or so years. Mostly for gaming and side tasks. I also heard the Asus boards might have memory issues with EXPO?
If you are into overclock, buy X670E steel legend because it has better VRAM.
B650 is for mainstream, it can only overclock 7600X and 7700x, I won't recommend you to overclock using 7800x and above using this board
great video, one correction: direct storage games on win11 run better wiht Gen4 NVME ssd
Hey pc builder! I didn't know where else to ask this so im asking here, would any sleeved extension sables work with an atx 3.0 psu? ik the gpu 12VHPWR cable isnt compatible but shudnt the 24 pin and the eps cable be? Just a thought
Any extension set should work as long as you are plugging the extensions into the cables that came with the PSU (hence the term "extension", not "replacement"). Remember the PSU side connections are proprietary (if you have a modular or semi-modular PSU). We go over this in more detail on our new PSU buying guide video we put out a couple weeks ago. Check that out!
Thank you sooo much for this. I was looking at MB's last night to price and what features to look for. I have always gone with Asus. I work on my PC and occasionally game on it. I was looking at the Asus x670E.... Would going for more features like PCIE5 future proof and yes I know that doesn't really work buuut I did it with my old machine and I am still working with it to this day but now after +6-10 years it's showing it's age. Would love your insight. Thanks!
So glad this was helpful! I found the current Asus options pretty overpriced (we do go through them in the recommendation section) but they are beautiful boards.
@@PCBuilderChannel Yup Asus has always been overpriced but I have loved their build quality. I wonder if and when the prices are going down. I might have to wait until next year.
If i heared you right you said that there are no pci-e gen 5 graphics cards available and wont be for a long time. Isnt the new lineup from amd coming in like 6 weeks based on gen 5 pci-e?
Hey there! I really enjoy watching your videos and I really overthink everything! I really want to build my 2nd rig (I sold mine a few months ago, it was created on 2017). I love playing games in 4k. I really care about how it looks and stuff like that. I really needed help to see what build should I make right now, it doesn't matter the cost, but I only want to play amazing AAA videogames and never miss a detail with amazing fps. What would you recommend me? (Yes, I have checked all of your videos but I am still figuring out what I really need). Thanks a lot and would appreciate your answer!
I ask because I tend to think that if I spend $3k it would run better, but I don't want to do content creation. I just want to play games
Honestly, right now I'd go Ryzen 5800X3D if building a high budget AAA title gaming build and reserve most of my money for an RTX 4090 or RX 7900 XT (when it launches). See our Ryzen 5800X3D best build video on the main channel page under the "Builds and Parts Lists" playlist.
@@PCBuilderChannel Thank you! I will check that video
@@PCBuilderChannel Hey! you know I watched your video and buyed my rig based on ur recommendations with 5800x3D! now when it arrives I wonder how should I place the 240mm AIO cooler and the fans (with Corsair Airflow 4000x), I mean, which ones should do the exhaust and which ones the intake! thank you!
If I buy sound card, does it help with bad audio codec with lower end motherboards?
Love your vids Jason, I’m on a 1200$ budget and I don’t know if I should go with cheap am4 or am5
With that budget right now I'd look at Ryzen 5000 series. But you might want to wait a bit and see what prices do around Black Friday and the Intel launches
