Just curious, what’s the difference between a B mobo and X mobo? I only know the X mobo is better but not sure which part exactly is the X mobo better
What StraightUpSavage said, but also better VRM’s which keep the mobo cooler. Some also have PCIE 5, which high end SSD’s can use but currently no GPU’s. But when you’re spending this much and not wanting to upgrade, that’s one extra feature you can pack onto the build. But like I said, it’s not really necessary
Ic. Just asking for some opinion, if i have roughly 1.3-1.4k budget for a build? Should i go for a B mobo or X mobo? Mostly will just be used for gaming with occasional work from school projects
You could get an X w/ out PCIE5 if it’s on sale or something, but for that budget I would get a B650. Also just checked and actually B650e and X670e MB’s both have PCIE5, I guess it’s the “e” distinction that tells you whether it has it or not. If you want I can check out your pcpp list.
