nine0003
Best with B450 chipset
MSI B450 Gaming Plus MAX
Editor Rating — 4.6 / 5
We all know this super-fast and super-fast PCIe motherboard , which is why we felt it was important to include the best B450 option for the R7 5800X as well, and MSI Gaming Plus is exactly what you need.
The
Crossfire was one of the most popular and high performance B450 boards for Ryzen 3000-Series chips, so it makes sense that with the appropriate updates it will get the 5000-Series without any problems. With the same MSI core, DDR4 memory, and audio amplification technology as MPG X570, Gaming Plus and R7 5000 series processors are a perfect match. nine0003
How we choose
Here, we were just as excited about the new Ryzen processors as you are, not only because PC gaming is our job, but PC gaming is our life. We always know what products to share with you because these are products that we either make or seek to purchase as part of our personal gaming devices.
In particular, when it comes to motherboards, we are looking for those that will allow the Ryzen 7 5800X to perform to its full potential. We are looking for chipsets that provide such fast and fluid communication, they evoke a sense of unity between individual components. nine0003
We are also reviewing motherboards at different market levels, opening up opportunities for gamers in different economic situations. The bottom line is that anything that limits the gaming performance of this Ryzen processor is strictly excluded.
Points to consider
Socket
The main aspect of matching the motherboard with the processor is the socket type of the motherboard. As computer technology advances, various connections are required to improve design and performance. For example, a new CPU may have a completely different power delivery system or memory interface than the old CPU. nine0003
A new socket is required because processor enhancements are made by physically changing the installed matrix to support new concepts.
The Ryzen 7 8500X requires an AM4 socket, but it’s important to note that this socket type does not provide compatibility on its own.
Chipset
The motherboard chipset is basically the main communication board. This allows all connected devices to communicate with each other by controlling the flow of data. This is the second motherboard feature that needs to be connected to the Ryzen 7 5800X. nine0003
The most commonly produced R7 5800X chipsets are the B450 and X570. Motherboards with B450 chipsets are generally the more economical option, while motherboards with X570 chipsets are expensive high-end products. The B550, X470 and A520 chipsets are also compatible.
Form factor
The form factor of a motherboard is essentially determined by its size and shape. You will need to decide what works best for your setup by checking how much space you have available in your computer case. nine0003
Measuring 12×9.5 inches, the ATX has the largest form factor and is rectangular in shape.
ATX formats have multiple expansion slots, which is great if you want to connect many peripherals at the same time, such as multiple GPUs. Micro ATX is the next smallest form factor, followed by Mini TX, which uses a riser card to run extensions in parallel. Micro ATX boards are only used in very small and thin cases. nine0003
Features
Different motherboards support different features, for example, some may have a power limited design that uses VRMs that will not allow you to increase the power of the processor for overclocking.
Another important quality of the motherboard is its network capability. Is there built-in Wi-Fi? Would you appreciate it? Does it have a decent Gigabit Ethernet LAN port? This port will determine the speed at which the board can send and receive a certain amount of data to the Internet modem or router, so this is very important for modern games. nine0003

- Chipset — X570.
POS
- Cooling capacity load.
- Epic build quality.
- Individual IOMMUs for all three PCI-e 4 slots.

- Great for OC-ing.
- Well thought out UEFI.
MINUS
- One IOMMU for USB and SATA interfaces. The
Master is an incredibly high-end motherboard, so it might be a bit of a go-to for a lot of people, especially if you’re probably pairing your motherboard purchase with a Ryzen 5000 processor. However, if you can reach out, we guarantee you won’t disappointed.
With three PCI-e 4 slots, each in its own IOMMU group, you can run a dual GPU setup or connect a variety of peripherals that best suit your gaming needs and desires. Unfortunately, in addition to PCI-e 4, the connections built into the chipset, namely the USB and SATA interfaces, are bundled together into a single IOMMU.
It won’t degrade performance much, it’s just a bit gimmicky for an impressive board. nine0003
Because it’s so powerful, the Master generates quite a lot of heat, but Gigabyte knows what they’re doing in terms of thermals. With 7 fan headers, a dedicated fan for the X570 chipset, and built-in temperature sensors that communicate with the included software, you can set up detailed, custom cooling local to any component.
The build quality couldn’t be better because this is one cool mother! With low-loss PCBs and tons of copper, this thing is sure to outlive your CPU. UEFI is great too, offering fully customizable performance. Master is a fantastic combination for the 5800X. Together they scored 2
CONS
- The power design is not the most efficient (but quite normal).
Where many budget X570 boards have failed, MSI MPG has won.
With built-in Wi-Fi 5, multiple USB ports, audio amplification 4, two PCI-e Gen 4 slots (one M.2 slot is directed to the CPU and the other to the chipset), 2 side X16 slots, 3 slots X1, and 6 SATA ports, it has all the features you’re looking for in a board of this type. nine0003
It also has pre-installed I/O port shielding that is fully grounded to protect both the motherboard itself and expensive peripherals from ESD.
In terms of power design, the 4+2 double phrase isn’t exactly the best, but with the 5800X drawing 105W at full load, the VRM temperature should only peak between 70-75°C, which means there’s plenty of room to overclock especially because MSI really has you covered when it comes to thermal technology. You get their patented FROZR fan blade design based on a rugged double ball bearing system and impressive heatsinks. nine0003
A really cool feature is memory upscaling technology, which essentially stabilizes the signals to provide up to 64Gbps of bandwidth.
Needless to say, it is fully capable of supporting the 3200MHz capacity of the R7 5800X. What’s more, there’s a core power boost feature that runs a redundant circuitry that injects a huge power boost into your CPU. Your 5800X won’t know exactly what happened!
Best Premium
ASUS ROG X570 Crosshair VIII Hero
Specifications
- Suggested assembly — AMD — High-end.
- Shape Factor — ATX.
- Overclocking support — yes.
- Socket — AM4.
- Chipset — X570.
PLUS
- Premium components
- Safe boot button, slow mode and LN2 mode for extreme overclocking.
- The most impressive cooling solutions on the list. nine0016
- Wi-Fi 6 and Aquantia 5 Gigabit Ethernet LAN.
- 4 expansion slots.
- Designed specifically for Zen 3.
- Great AI Suite 3 software.
- Quality VRM for OC processing.
- Integrated OLED panel.
CONS
- Very expensive.
First, a small disclaimer: this board is not for everyone. This is a very expensive and expensive product made for those gamers who are constantly chasing the OC dragon. Equipped with a host of OC-specific features from light to extreme boost, you can let your inner mad scientist out without fear of destroying your expensive gear. nine0003
Since there is a lot of power going through this board, Asus has gone to great lengths to ensure proper cooling. With a Chill EKIII waterblock, ultra-wide copper mounts, custom M.2 and PCH heatsinks, four fan headers, a ROG chipset vented fan, and even a custom circuit water pump connector, this beast will never overheat.
However, this is not just an OC switch. From Wi-Fi 6 and gigabyte LAN connectivity, all the way to USB 3.2 Gen 2 support, it’s impressive in every way. The intuitive AI Suite 3 is also exquisitely designed. It has never been easier to perfect the performance of any given application.
nine0003
Aesthetically, this is a fairly neutral board, but not without highlights. The LiveDash OLED panel provides a really cool and colorful customizable graphics display, but if that seems too bright to you, it can also just be customized to display performance information.

water pump.
nine0016
CONS
- No PCI-e 4.0.
- SATA ports 5 and 6 are disabled if you use the PCI-e slots.
Just because it’s not a super-powerful X570 board doesn’t mean it will severely limit your R7 processor. The only thing you can’t get the most out of is PCI-e gen 4, which means your connection’s throughput will be halved. nine0003
Despite the relatively low price and B450 chipset, the Gaming Plus Max is trying to lay the groundwork for intense overclocking, and this is all the more highlighted by the thought that MSI has invested in cooling devices.
The heatsinks on this thing are heavy duty. In fact, we’d say they’re more like heat baths than sinks, and they’re supported by five fan headers located around the motherboard, but if for some reason you need to plug in a sixth fan, the water pump header serves as an additional fan header.
. nine0003
Other features include excellent stabilized memory signal and core amplification that we have seen in X570 MSI motherboard, audio amplification function using high quality Japanese capacitors, 6 SATA interface, four X1 PCI-e slots and two full size PCI slots — e slots. However, keep in mind that if you are using PCI-e ports, you can still use SATA ports 1 to 4, but ports 5 and 6 will be disabled.
Conclusion
With the Ryzen 7 5000X-Series, it’s clear that AMD has hammered another nail into Intel’s coffin. Not only do they outperform Intel in every technology bump, but they’ve become more affordable, hooray! And the money you save by choosing an AMD processor, you can spend on one of these motherboards, and they all really let this amazing Zen 3 Ryzen processor sing.
Which board best suits your setup and gaming needs is entirely up to you, but we think the Asus X570 is your best bet. It seems to have all the features that the high-end X570 board has, such as PCI-e Gen 4 slots and a quality power design, but at a much more wallet-friendly price.
Though if you’re a serial overclocker, Crosshair opens up whole new worlds of customizable performance. nine0003

How to choose a motherboard for Ryzen?
When choosing a motherboard, consider the following criteria:
- form factor;
The form factor is the size of the motherboard, which is oriented in the first place, because if the device is very large, it may simply not fit into the PC case. E-ATX has dimensions of 305×330 mm, ATX — 305×244 mm, micro-ATX — 244×244 mm, mini-ITX — 170×170 mm, mini-STX (for ultra-compact PCs with external power supplies) — 140×140 mm. The standard for office and home PCs is usually the ATX format.
- chipset;
A chipset is a set of chips that plays a connecting role for parts and components of a PC. The functionality of the motherboard depends on it. Their main difference is the types of supported interfaces for hard drive connections and USB ports. Regular office and home PCs have cheap chipsets. Gray options appear for overclocking the processor and gaming PCs, and older options are on top models and cost a lot. If overclocking the processor is not your main task, then there is no point in buying top models. nine0003
