ASRock AMD B550AM Gaming Motherboard Spiededit
Here is the first picture of a motherboard based on AMD’s upcoming mid-range desktop motherboard chipset, the AMD “B550A,” the ASRock B550AM Gaming. The board was spied inside a pre-built desktop at a Best Buy store. This is the first time we’ve seen the mid-range chipset being referenced as “B550A” and not “B550.” The “A” may not be part of the motherboard’s model name as the “M” denotes Micro-ATX and usually succeeds the chipset model in ASRock’s nomenclature. The B550(A) will be an important chipset for AMD as it will enable motherboards priced under the $150 mark that support AMD’s 3rd generation Ryzen processor’s I/O natively.

Best PC Build For Professional Video Editing under 1 Lakh INR 2019edit
AMD Ryzen 7 3700X: Price: Rs. 29,475 ; Cores: 8; Threads: 16; Base Clock: 3.6 GHz; Boost Cock: 4.4 GHz; TDP: 65W; Socket: AM4. The Ryzen 7 3700X is one of the best-valued CPUs around for pure performance. While there’s not much of a difference between the 3700X and the 3600X in gaming workloads, the extra cores make all the difference in multi-threaded loads. As mentioned before, the more the number of cores, the better the editing performance. It also has a lower rated TDP than the 3600X, at only 65W. Compared to Intel’s offerings, it beats the 9700K by a mile and even offers stiff competition to the 9900K.

Best PC Build for 4K Gaming Under Rs. 2 Lakh (2,00,000) in India 2019 (PROACTIVE)edit
AMD Ryzen 7 3700X: Cores/Threads: 8/16; Base Clock: 3.6 GHz; Boost Clock: 4.4 GHz; Cache Size: 36 MB; TDP: 65 Watt; Price: Rs. 29,465. An Intel Core i7-9700K or an i9-9900K would also make sense, but given that we’re aiming for 4K, it wouldn’t make a lot of sense to opt for a CPU that’s 5% faster in gaming but 50% slower in everything else. As such, we’ll be opting for the octa-core Ryzen 7 3700X which is one of the best CPUs for just about everything right from rendering to video-editing, streaming as well as high-resolution gaming.

Best Intel Motherboards for Gaming on the Core i5-9400, i7-8700K, 9700K & i9-9900Kedit
With Intel offering price-cuts on their existing line-up of products, this is not a bad time to go for an Intel-based build. That said, a motherboard is extremely important for your system.

You can get away with a fairly cheap motherboard for AMD processors. However, you need to opt for a more robust solution when it comes to Intel motherboards.
