Considering a new motherboard for your 7800X3D, look into reliable white options like ASUS, MSI, or Gigabyte. These brands offer solid performance and compatibility.
Known motherboards featuring white cooling fins include the NZXT B650E, Asrock Pro RS, Asus Strix B650-A, and MSI Edge.
You are in luck, white boards seems are in fashion. A lot of Chinese vender are show casing white builds. But seems most AM5 are B650 boards https://www.gigabyte.com/se/Motherboard/...O-G-rev-10 https://rog.asus.com/us/motherboards/rog...ifi-model/ https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/MPG-B650-EDGE-WIFI (There is a ITX version too) https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B650 Pro RS/index.asp (Not recommended given Asrock have a reputation of not-so user friendly BIOS) B650E https://nzxt.com/product/n7-b650e
You have a budget board for the ASROCK B650m Pro with WiFi, and you’re looking at prices under 350.
Is the board white and missing something important? These upgrades usually don't add value.
I believe I provided a comprehensive selection. White options remain somewhat uncommon, yet it's clear most sellers include them. (To be honest, I just browse each brand, pick AM5 and check the short board list.) The Gigabyte and NZXT models seem to stand out the most... not too subtle.
Other options include Colorful, a trusted Chinese brand not widely known outside China.
For Asus, consider the ROG Strix X670E-A Gaming Wi-Fi (could be pricey) and the ASUS Prime X670E-PRO Wi-Fi (potentially within your budget).
You might also explore the ASUS Prime X670-P, which has a more black aesthetic.
MSI offers the MAG B660M Mortar Wi-Fi, and you can find more details on their site.
Additionally, the X670E Taichi Carrara is also likely not a good investment despite the upgrade.
I didn't include it because the original request mentioned 300 USD. Some of these boards exceed that amount. From what I observed on Amazon, the Gigabyte board looks like a solid option, as does Asus, though I prefer not to use Prime boards. I usually stick to at least the second cheapest option, but AM5 models are decent. The decision really comes down to price, appearance, required ports, and matching your GPU and motherboard for fewer RGB extras.
