You'll gain only minor speed improvements in loading times. Given you're purchasing an A302 motherboard, it seems like you're stretching your budget thin—spending there wouldn't be a good use. Better invest in a higher-quality board instead.

It's an older model, just about to purchase a 450, but then they released the 550—so I'm holding for those. Appreciate the guidance!

Unless you're planning to upgrade CPUs next year, it makes sense to wait until AM5 before investing more in a board.

I understand the need to wait, but investing in a B450 Pro 4 for around $70 would be significantly more beneficial. This board has major issues—no heatsink and poor performance. I wouldn’t run anything over an Athlon because it only handles 50A.

It looks like AMD is now backing Zen 3 on their 450 boards, which might make me consider getting one. I'm still thinking about whether to wait for a graphics card or go with the 5700X right away.

I don't have a GPU. You might want to check your device settings or ask the person who provided this information.
