I secured the 5600x at its MSRP using the Newegg lottery, but I was hoping for the 5800x. I was checking out motherboards and still unsure which chipset to choose. Also, which motherboard fits with that chipset? Right now I’m considering the Asus B550 or X570 Strix.

B550 is definitely sufficient; the X570 features aren't necessary, especially with the 5600X. Regarding the boards:

Compare Aorus Master and Strix B550-E to see which suits your needs best.
