I'm planning to build a new PC with a Ryzen 5 7500F processor and 5600 MHz RAM, along with two NVMe M.2 SSDs. I'm trying to decide on a motherboard and I'm considering options from MSI, ASUS, and Gigabyte. I spotted the GIGABYTE B850 EAGLE WIFI7 ICE and the ASUS PRIME B850-PLUS WIFI, but I'm unsure which one to go with since the Gigabyte board has a max RAM frequency limit of 5200 MHz.

I see you're eyeing the Gigabyte one, but isn't it priced at around $290? If you're looking for a white-themed build, maybe consider the ASUS ROG STRIX B650-A GAMING WIFI instead. It's a great motherboard and comes highly recommended!
The Gigabyte board actually supports up to 8400 MHz RAM, so you might want to check that out again before deciding! It's a solid option if you want to push for higher speeds later.
Really? How do you know that?
Nah, I don’t need a white one necessarily. I'll choose components that match the motherboard color.
