Considering the build, I’m aware this board tends to get hot and has lower quality, yet I’ve seen it offers good value at that price (114EUR). I plan to use it with a Ryzen 5 2600 and an RX580, possibly overclocking later. Let me know if you need more details.

It's a bit disappointing; the B450 Gaming Plus (MAX) offers much more value at the same cost.

It varies by region in Europe, with costs potentially doubling depending on the country—especially when comparing quality hardware. Measuring VRM temperatures is also unreliable. Honestly, it seems like someone just aimed an infrared gun at the heatsink and stopped there.

I reside in the Czech Republic and the lowest cost is 114EUR. Would you like a link? I believe MSI offers top boards, but you prefer an Asus model for Aura Sync compatibility.

The three cards differ in price and features. The B450-E costs 130EUR, while the TUF is 103EUR. You prefer the TUF despite some yellow elements on the board, which isn’t a major concern.

The Strix boards generally offer higher quality compared to the Tuf boards.

Discovered the Asus X370 PRO at 98 euros, is it superior to the alternatives?

It's an older chipset from the initial release of Ryzen around 2017. I don't believe it's significantly better, though I'm not entirely sure about the motherboard or chipsets.

Improved VRM designs feature bigger volume and surface area heatsinks on top of a slightly bigger unit, generating less heat compared to the F model. This enhances the durability of the components.
