We get three full-length x16 PCIe ports and four x1 ports on this Asus motherboard.Ĭovering the RGB, which is important to many users, the ROG logo lights up on the CPU Power Phase cooling, while there’s backlighting on the southbridge heatsink. It comes with two PCIe 3.0 M.2 connectors, both operating with the x4 NVMe interface, while the uppermost connection can also utilise SATA M.2 drives. The Strix B450-F Gaming uses AMD’s latest B450 chipset based on the AM4 socket, aiming to strike a balance between the cost-effectiveness, as well as including features gamers expect and need. Now coming to the motherboard, I select ASUS ROG STRIX B450-F for this PC build.

Ryzen 7 3700X processor is really good comes with 8 cores and 16 threads clocked at 3.6GHz and a max boost clock of 4.4GHz which is more than enough for gaming and video editing.Īs a bonus, it comes with the AMD prism RGB cooler so you don’t need to shell out any extra for an aftermarket cooler. Yes, I can also go with Intel Core i7-9700K, but it would have pushed the cost way above my budget. Here I need PC for video editing and gaming so I select Ryzen 7 3700X processor for this PC build. But If you ready to spend extra money on a processor, then choose Intel. Because it offers more value for money multitasking performance compared to Intel processor. I would suggest you go with Ryzen processor. If you planning to build a PC for only gaming then the Intel 8th or 9th gen Processor is best for you but if you want to do productive work too like video editing, AutoCAD, Photoshop etc.
