Ryzen vs Intel

you got it the wrong way around, asus is 6+1, MSI is 6+2.
The MSI one has 6x50A while the asus has 6x40A, Asrock is not as good as them I agree, pricing the same as the MSI making it pretty much not worth it.

Oops!

So
this one :

or this
https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/ROG-STRIX-B450-I-GAMING/
you say ….over asrock…

The MSI you linked to is mATX not mini-ITX. This is the MSI motherboard:

Thanks. Missed that. ( although case will take mATX as well :pp )

And yes MSI could be had for £125 so seems like win over Asus as they are pricier..
 
True. But comparing i3 and Ryzer 5 means mainstream rather than performance

Going deeper in to the memory choice I keep thinking ...damn the times when you bought what it was there and all was working ...now has to be B-die ...not Hynix...3200 for good performance etc .....Intel does not suffer/gain with a lot quicker memory and 2600MhZ for i3 for example so much cheaper....
