I'm looking to build a system with a Ryzen 9800X3D processor and I have a few motherboard options in mind: MSI B850 GAMING PLUS WIFI6E, Gigabyte B850 GAMING X WIFI6E, Gigabyte B850 EAGLE WIFI6, and Gigabyte B850 GAMING WIFI6. Can anyone share which of these would be the best for both gaming and productivity?

If price is a factor, I lean towards the Gigabyte B850 GAMING X WIFI6E, but it really depends on what deals you can find. You might want to check current prices before making your choice.
That's a good point! I'll keep an eye on the pricing trend.
I personally use the X670E Gaming Plus with my 9800X3D and it's been fantastic. The BIOS is user-friendly, the VRMs are well-cooled, and the overall design is really nice. The B850 Gaming Plus should serve you well too!
Honestly, any of these would work just fine for your setup. They're all capable of supporting the Ryzen 9800X3D and should handle both gaming and productivity tasks well.

Thanks for the links! These will definitely help in making a decision.
