When I used lightning software on a graphics card in the past it was just to set the lighting I wanted, was a zotac card I think, then you could even uninstall the software if you wanted.
Anyway. No big deal man, we are all different

Best B450 mobo for Ryzen 3600?

Anyway. No big deal man, we are all different
Apart from maybe RAM being more fussy (not sure if due to this mobo or just the platform in general) everything has been fine. If you get the latest BIOS everything works as it should.
It was around 100% and the benefit so far probably has been faster BIOS updates. Not sure if it helped at all with my overclocking. It just gives me a bit more flexibility and piece of mind for the future when I plonk in a 4900X/4950X. It will likely get more support in the future also vs b450 boards. I do agree with you though, not exactly the best price for performance vs b450.
Certainly there is the hope that the BIOS updates will continue for longer, not sure about the speed of them though as I've used a heck of a lot of the MSI MAX board variants and most of them had 1.0.0.4 B before the end of October, around 2 weeks after this thread started actually
As for overclocking, then I guess it might play a part but a 3600 isn't really taxing a board at all unless you were putting 2v through it.
That is weird, I do not recall anyone here getting 1.0.0.4 B, as I recall I was one of the first. I even remember websites coming out with the news that 1.0.0.4 B was getting released soon and that was after I got my board. Does not matter really, as I said, the idea is I can just put in a 4900X or 4950X later on. Chances are the elite will handle it better than a Tomohawk Max
I was close to getting an MSI Tomohawk Max, they were closer to £100 at the time, but one of the things I recall not liking on there was the very basic sound chip. There may have been other things too but I do not recall. All I remember was I spent around an extra £70 for piece of mind and latest chipset.
