I recently purchased a Lian Li A3 case, which limits me to a microATX motherboard. I'm planning to pair it with an AMD 9950X3D CPU to ensure my build lasts for several years. I've been looking at a few options: 1) ASRock B850M Riptide WiFi for $189.99, 2) ASUS B850M-PLUS TUF Gaming Wifi for $249.99, and 3) Gigabyte B850M AORUS Elite WiFi6E Ice for $199.99. I'd love to hear your thoughts on which one you recommend and why. Right now, I'm leaning toward the ASRock because I like its color, but I know that's not the best reason. If you think the Gigabyte is a better choice, I'm open to that too! Thanks for your help!

All the boards you've mentioned are solid choices! I personally went with the Gigabyte ICE board because I liked the aesthetics and the ample rear I/O options it offers. Just keep in mind you might be limited to two M.2 slots in the future, but for me, it was worth it!
Thanks for the insight! So it sounds like they all perform well?
