I'm on the hunt for a budget-friendly motherboard that can run a Ryzen 5 9600X and might also support a Ryzen 5 from the 11th generation in the future. My options seem pretty limited, but I'm considering the Gigabyte Eagle AX, MSI B650-S, and MSI B650-A. I'm a fan of having Wi-Fi capabilities, but I'm not really concerned about LAN capabilities. Any suggestions?

All three motherboards you mentioned are good choices. They should support the Ryzen 5 9600X pretty well. If you're leaning towards Wi-Fi, make sure to check if the specific model you choose has built-in Wi-Fi functionality since not all versions do. Otherwise, you could always add a Wi-Fi card later if needed.
Honestly, just go with the cheapest one that fits your needs. If you're considering different CPUs like the Ryzen 5 8400F, it’s definitely cost-effective to do some price comparisons. The performance difference between them isn't major unless you're really pushing your system to the limits.
