I'm making the switch from Intel to AMD and need some advice on a good motherboard for my new AM5 9800X3D. My main usage will be gaming and school work, and I'm hoping to keep the budget under $200. Any recommendations?

A B650 might also work well, but just be aware that some of them might require a BIOS update to support the Ryzen 9000 series. Just check the manufacturing date before you buy to make sure it's compatible.
Any B650 or B850 motherboard should do the trick for your needs. Honestly, spending more than that would be overkill for gaming and school work.
Honestly, a B850 motherboard is a solid choice and should fit your budget perfectly. You'll have plenty of features for what you're looking to do.
