Hey everyone! I'm on the hunt for a cost-effective motherboard that doesn't come with built-in Wi-Fi. Here are my specs: I have a Ryzen 5 5600 processor, along with either an RX 580 or RX 5500 XT graphics card. I'm using a MasterWatt 750 80+ Bronze ATX power supply and 32GB of Crucial RAM (2x16GB) running at 3200MHz. It's important for me to have a motherboard with a PCIe 4.0 slot, and ideally, I'd like to have two M.2 slots—though one would be fine too. I've been considering the ASUS B550M-K ARGB Micro ATX, but I'm not really sure about it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

For your setup, nearly any B550 or X570 motherboard should work well. Just find one that fits your budget. If you’re okay going older, those can also work, though you might miss out on PCIe 4.0 speeds for the GPU slot. Do you already have all your components?
Yes, I have everything already. I'm actually from Fiji, so my best bet is to look for something shipped from Australia since we don’t have many options here.
