Would you say £150 brand new is worth paying for this itx board?

Will this support next year's AMD CPUs?

This one ? Then yes.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

Total: £220.49 (includes shipping: £10.50)

No it won't support next years AMD cpu as the 5000 series is the last ones for AM4.

The next lot of AMD cpu's (6000 series ?) will be on a different socket/chipset. The Ryzen 5000 is the last generation for AM4.

Ah thanks for that. Probably won't bother building this year as I'll have to replace the Mobo to.

Argh so confused, is this still a good itx Mobo?
