My board only handles up to 1.8 vdimm—it's a bit disappointing, but what options exist? I’d have chosen the X570 myself, though the price of the boards caught my attention. My computer is mostly for fun now; it doesn’t feel like a priority. With the inability to get a GPU, my passion has faded a bit. Even if I had one, I still wouldn’t feel the same. The expenses—hardware, software, telemetry, ads, TPM—don’t seem worth it anymore.

It seems like you're talking about a workstation setup requiring two GPUs, two high-speed PCIe 4 ports, and two SSDs. With that level of investment, you won't have to worry much about the motherboard cost.

most aren't even sure how to handle voltages higher than 1.5V

I just installed an R5 5600X in my MSC B450 Tomahawk Max and achieved the performance I wanted for just $300. I was running an R5 3600, which is also a solid CPU. Even with both having six cores, the R5 5600X gave better results without breaking the budget.

My board was 205 with shipping, but the X570 model I needed was almost three times larger.
