Hey everyone! I'm on the hunt for a solid motherboard to pair with my Ryzen 9 7900X3D CPU and G.SKILL Trident Z5 Neo RAM (32GB at 6000MHz CL30). Stability is a big deal for me since I want to fully support my RAM's speed. I'm also considering factors like price and WiFi capabilities. Is the ASUS TUF B650-Plus WiFi a good option, or should I take a look at some MSI boards? Thanks in advance!

I've heard great things about the MSI MAG X870 Tomahawk! I'm actually thinking of picking it up myself. It seems to be a solid board for high-performance builds.
If you're thinking about future upgrades and want to support PCIe 5.0, you might want to look at a B650E motherboard. It shares the same chipset as the X870 series. I have the MSI Mag Tomahawk X870 with a 9800X3D and an RTX 5080, and it runs perfectly with my 64GB of 6000MT CL30 RAM. Definitely worth considering!
If you're looking for a more affordable option, check out the ASRock X870 Pro RS WiFi. It's around $200 and could be a good alternative to the X870 Tomahawk if you're on a budget.
What about the B850? Is it also a good choice?
