Upgrade MB

[Sylar2k20]

What MB recommended for future 9800X3D ?

GIGABYTE X870 AORUS ELITE WIFI, its ok ?

 

[tamzzy]

Any mid-range mobo will do
As it stands the 7800x3d is so power efficient that it'll run even on mobos with potato vrms.
(Hopefully the 9800x3d will be similar)

Intel 14700K still worth to take even next gen launch end of the month ?

I have ryzen 7700 non x but has slow boot , and i have Gigabyte B650 gaming x ax v1.2 and not has support for ryzen 9000 series ... and i want to change MB for start and best price performance i see Gigabyte X870E Aorus Elite .....
And i saw many people say to avoid Gigabyte MB ....

Budget 700 euro max for MB and Cpu

I will use mostly for gaming

Enable Memory Context restore in the bios should speed up boot times.

Have you enabled memory context restore?

Have you enabled memory context restore?

Yes , but i want for future upgrade at least to change MB .... because support only 7000 series

No, you just need a bios update. You don't have to swap the motherboard

Download the bios upgrade from here:

Gigabyte are being a bit naughty if you check CPU support list no 9000 series are on it.

 

[tamzzy]

@mickyflinn oh, yeah haha. Just had a look at the CPU support list...even though they've released the bios updates for support. Cheeky cheeky money grabbing so and so

 

[Sylar2k20]

Only v1.5 has support so need to change MB

 

[tamzzy]

1.2 has support as well. Gigabyte just hasn't documented it.
Since bios F31 on the 1.2 version that you have

If you want to waste money by changing out your motherboard then go ahead. Just know it'll be a waste of money.

 

[tamzzy]

AGESA 1.2.0.0(a) = Ryzen 9000 support

No. You would be mad to swap from a 7700 to a 14700K.

The X870 board you mentioned looks fine, if you want USB4, but there haven't been many reviews/roundups yet, so if there's a lemon out there we won't know for a few weeks or months.

Dont need speed usb want only more ports .. and i saw X670E its with 20 euro cheaper then X870E so i want to want X870E Aorus Elite wifi ... if worth it
