Sorry forgot to say extreme after the E which I keep thinking means extreme already?
So the extreme extreme I guess.

Ah yeah I got the same. Paid 488 so my brain said Oh yes that's a good deal because if it started with a five then that would be bad value lol

Ordered the Asus X670e, really expensive for a motherboard but only one that had everything I wanted and I’ll keep it a good few years like my current X99 EATX board.

Not decided on my choice yet however, I did contemplate the Strix B650E-F and the TUF X670E-Plus?

I would go strix-f, not losing out on much v tuf. Still get pcie-5 16 slot and gen 5 nvme, better aesthetics and more bios features on a ROG board.

The TUF is lower spec than the Strix-F. So he'd not be losing out on anything I believe.

 

[Mr G]

Cheers chaps, Strix B650E-F it is... when it comes into stock that is?

no, higher spec chipset has more nvme support and pci-e bandwidth. Nothing to get excited about.

Yes I'm not disagreeing with you but you said "I would go with the strix-f, not losing out on much v TUF"

I am pointing out that he isn't losing out on anything because the strix is the higher spec board.
What you said would make sense. If you had written I would go with the tuf because you are not losing out on much compared to the strix-f

 

[RavenXXX2]

It's not the lower spec board though is it....

I beg your pardon I thought we were talking about the same bloody chipset! (X670E)

My brain had completely ignored the fact that board exists outside of the X670E

 

[^JP^]

Yes sorry I was only considering X670e also for “future proofing” if that’s even possible these days!

We don't like that word around here lol.

Exactly why I got the board I did though..

 

[rexehuk]

Doubt it, AMD will just reallocate the dyes to Eypc where the real money is as Intel arn't even in the running in the server space

In that case *closes wallet*.

Good news 4790k, looks like we're going to spend more years together until the machine detonates.

Any chance of the motherboards coming down in price in 6 months for the 7xx3D? The prices are ridiculous at the moment and that’s coming from someone who bought a 4090 lol

B650 board in 205-250 range are quite serviceable, and anything above 330 is just pointless.
I doubt it will come down much.
ASUS at least seems to be priced quite agressivaly already.
Could be couple more budget friendly options when Asrock B650 line is out.

Doubtful as amd likely want to separate out am4 sales vs am5 sales

Yea, unless you need a ports or some feature like pcie5 or such I go with such 200-250 board.

 

[Mr G]

What board do you folks recommend for use with a 7700X as I was considering the B650E-F but not sure?
