Currently upgrading to DDR5. I have a GIGABYTE GPU should I stick with the same brand for my motherboard or move to ASUS? Having trouble deciding.Motherboard options:ASUS TUF Gaming B650-PLUS WiFiGIGABYTE B650 Eagle AX
>>109673072Get whichever one has the features you want/need.Asus is famous for being a scummy company so I'd recommend Gigabyte.
>>109673072OP here. nvm ignore the Eagle AX. Swap that for GIGABYTE B650 AORUS Elite AX
>>109673072>Currently upgrading to DDR5.Isn't that really expensive to do right now though?
>>109673072Get whatever bro, it's a mobo. It ain't that deep.
>>109673258my upgrade list:GIGABYTE B650 AORUS Elite AX ($150)AMD RYZEN 7 9800X3D ($445)Corsair Vengeance RGB RS DDR5 32GB ($480)the ram price sucks yeah
>>109673072poasted this in /pcbg/ but if youre on linux i wouldnt go gigabyte since they have proprietary input/output interfaces that need manual patching: https://github.com/frankcrawford/it87
>>109673072I wouldn't touch anything Gigabyte with a stick, I always go with ASUS/ASRock.
>>109673258will ever be cheaper tho? prices will continue to rise
>>109673508Not on my motherboard, I have the AORUS Massa
>>109673072Gigabyte has worse SuperIO, so ASUS
>>109673218DO NOTThat's the same mobo I used to have and it's beyond dogshit
>>109673072sapphire
>>109674242what's wrong with it?
>>109673072gigabyte fan herespend the extra on assus. mind you have to spend more to get equivalent power delivery but you avoid bios quirks
>>109673072Choose Asrock with a Ryzen 7000 CPU, they support full ECC. Avoid Ryzen 9000 though, they die left and right in conjunction with an Asrock motherboard.
>>109674242I have the same and i can only recommend it, sucks to be you
>>109673072Get NiggabyteI once had an ANUS motherboard and the VRM died. 0 volts to cpu. Replaced it with Niggabyte and it worked fine
>>109673072I went through all the boards back then and the asus tuf 650 won out, I got the plus wifi one. I don't remember why it wonned over the gigabyte one but it did. And you should always trust anons on g
>>109673072oh and if you get the asus one you should disable the asus bloatware in bios before installing the os
>>109673072>upgrading to ddr5no you retard, you're upgrading to a cpu that requires ddr5if you're upgrading for ddr5 then you don't need to upgrade
>>109673072>upgrading to DDR5>DDR6 about to releaseISHYGDDT
>>109673072I'd go with niggabyte
