There are pros and cons, think before buying.

Generally speaking, I believe that mother's rules improve with time. But for the typical user or overclocker, I see zero benefit.

The B450, which is twice as affordable for the typical user, operates the r9 3900x just as smoothly.

A top-tier x570 chipset can be purchased for a few thousand dollars by an overclocker with ease.

Because it was the only mother in my community with the appropriate amount of ports, I purchased it for myself.

Pros

almost all of the X chipset's features, and even better RAM support. A full range of ports for all purposes (this was one of the main selection options) two channels. Windows software that is good but a little heavy. especially the capability to modify RGB color based on CPU temperature (the only normal option for those who do not like the backlight in general) Samsung's 8GB peer-to-peer sticks took 3600/19-19-19-38 quietly and drives RAM nicely (the previous Gigabyte aorus x470 could only 3200 at these timings with this RAM).

Cons

memoryTryIt does not operate! The BIOS must be completely reset after each unsuccessful effort at overclocking, which is the general rule. Price. At the same price as the previous generation, I chose the X470 with wi-fi and bluetooth.
