yeah. basically with good vrms, can just let PBO do its magic with a core offset voltage of -0.1v ish (PBO gives way to much voltage)

Ta, do you think just popping in 3600mhz ram will be no problem on these b450 boards?
not sure. 3200 should definitely be okay with ryzen 3000's improved memory controller...3600 probably okay, but just a wild guess here...

Still debating between Tomahawk and Gaming carbon pro AC, can anyone tell me the difference between the two M2 slots. The tomahawk has one slot that uses up sata ports 5 and 6 if you use it. The Carbon has two slots, one the same as above and the other uses pcix lanes, is that second slot superior then? how much real difference between the two?
Thanks
Thanks
You might want to hold off on the tomahawk for a bit, it seems msi are re releasing their b450 boards with a bigger 32mb bios chip, right now they are 16mb chips with a lite bios to be able to support older ryzen chips as well as the new ones .

Yea come across this today, so definately going to wait for the "max"? versions.
Hmm.
I've just bought a B450 Tomahawk today.
With the recent announcement that the bios chip might not be big enough, I checked the MSI site.
Just saying older CPU's not usable.
I thought I'd be fine with my Ryzen 3700x - when they all arrive.
I'll see, when my upgrade components arrive.

Yep all b450 and x470 boards, even some older x370. I'm a bit gutted, considering sending my gear back to where I bought it as I won't have a CPU for a few weeks anyway.
a bit over-dramatic? MSI website says it's the trash-end cpus that will not have support.

@nitram100 yeah, if you're not using it now, better to wait...if only for the bios support.
question is, how long it will take for the new boards to get into retail channel and if etailers will price them higher than current boards

Maybe, probably didn't give myself enough time, to read between the lines.
Heightened anxiety over the new tech, i'm like a giddy child.
need more sweets with 10 gajillion e-numbers in them
