No, consider a B550 Pro4 or B550 TuF.

The X470 Gaming Pro shares the same VRM configuration as the B450 Tomahawk. If you mean the Gaming Pro Carbon model, it offers slightly improved VRMs. However, the €120 price tag seems high for the B450. Consider seeking a more affordable B450-A Pro Max, B450 Gaming Plus Max, or B450M Mortar Max. Alternatively, adding €10-15 would bring you to the B550-A Pro, which truly represents a significant upgrade over these options.

I’d rather skip the Pro4 due to its weak rear I/O and mediocre VRMs, which would likely keep it cool as a B450 Tomahawk. The TUF falls near the €150-160 price point for an ATX model, making it noticeably pricier. The A Pro stands out at around €130-140, featuring an internal Type-C design, BIOS flashback, robust VRMs suitable even for a 3950X, debug LEDs, and solid rear I/O.

Consider AMD or hold off on Zen3.
