Here’s a revised version of your text:
Today, my build is set up with an AMD Ryzen 9 3900X, Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Gaming OC, G.Skill Trident Z Neo DDR4 3600 PC4-28800, 32GB with 2x16GB LPDDR16. I’m using a G.Skill X570 Aorus Pro (though it has some problems), plus a Gigabyte X570 Aorus Pro with 2x16GB CL16. My storage includes two Samsung 860 EVO Basic SSDs at 1TB and three Samsung 860 EVO Basic SSDs at 2TB. I also have Corsair Obsidian 500D USB 3.0 and a couple of Phanteks F120SP 120mm LED fans from the Hydro series. My plan is to upgrade the 3900X to a 5800X and the RTX 2080 Ti to a 3080. I was hoping for a 5900X, but it seems not ideal for gaming at 1440p/144Hz. I’m okay with the 5800X instead. My motherboard is struggling, so I plan to replace it. I need advice on what to purchase next—there’s no budget constraint. A friend suggested a MSI MAG B550 MORTAR because it supports PCIe 4.0 and offers good value, but I want confirmation before deciding. Thanks a lot!
Consider Zen 3 first to understand its features and compare the 5800X with the 3900X in performance. Evaluate how the 5800X holds up in games and decide if switching makes sense. Regarding the board, if it's under warranty, simply return it via RMA—the X570 Aorus Pro is quite solid.
It's helpful but I've come across many discussions about it. Most models, including gigabyte mobos, face similar problems like the cold boot bug. I plan to request the latest updates, specifically version 1.1 or 1.2.
Start with the first return message and verify if there are any issues with the item they sent or general problems. Since I don't have details on your budget or location, the B550 A Pro, Aorus Pro, Tomahawk, Strix F are reasonable choices. For a workstation board, the B550 Mortar is a solid option.
Budget is easy, money is in euros and it's Spain. First I'll check the RAM and then verify everything. All the modules you mentioned use PCIe 4.0, right?
