I've been putting a list together for a new build with the help of a few members on the new to pc gaming and upgrade advice board and am looking to finalise my mobo after doing a bit of looking around online after thinking I'd settled on one. Should probably point out that I'd want wifi and will likely be upgrading the GPU in 3-5 years (and possibly the CPU if needed by then) for 4k gaming etc. Don't want to spend any more than that listed in the four below. (I'd only go for the more expensive ones in the list if they're worth the additional cost).
Any advice on which would be the best value for money would be appreciated.
The build I'm looking at is:
Corsair iCue 4000x/NZXT H510 (either standard or elite)
Ryzen 5 5600x
Inno3D GeForce RTX 3060Ti Twin X2 OC (Ordered)
Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro (2 x 8GB) 3200MHz
WD Blue SN550 1TB NVME SSD
Corsair RM850X PSU
Arctic Freezer 34 eSports Duo (2 x 120mm)
MSI B550 Gaming Edge Wifi
Before I push the button, I've seen good reviews on the other 3 below. Are any of them better options or would the gaming edge wifi be ideal? Since this is specifically about the Mobo, thought it would be best to ask on here. I'm leaning away from the tomahawk since I'd need to buy a wifi card separately.
