Looking for an MB for Zen 3 (B550,X570). You need a model that supports Zen 3 now and not next year, preferably a B550 instead of X570. After checking options, I’m focusing on the MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk, aiming to keep costs under 200 euros or 180 pounds.

Exact location and details about the power source are unclear. For Zen 3 support, AMD released an AGESA code update that added compatibility before its official release. If your board includes a BIOS flashback button, you might be able to update it without a CPU installed. However, more information is needed about the specific hardware.

Denmark The Zen 3 Ryzen 5000 CPU isn't coming out yet, I'll go with a Ryzen 3000 instead. If you've looked it up, you'll know the MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk works with flashback without an RX 5600 XT or similar, like a RTX 3060, 2070, 2080, 1 PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe SSD, and one SATA SSD.

I understand that. I mentioned it if the board includes a bios flashback option you can refresh the BIOS without needing the CPU installed. Spoiler: PCPartPicker Part List Type Item Price Motherboard MSI B550-A PRO ATX AM4 costs 1115.00kr with shipping, taxes, rebates and discounts included. Total 1115.00kr. Generated by PCPartPicker on 2020-10-13 11:10 CEST+0200. The alternate list for Asus ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING ATX AM4 is 1574.00kr with similar inclusions. Gigabyte B550 AORUS PRO ATX AM4 is priced at 1398.00kr. The B550 Tomahawk is also recommended, generally falling between 140-200 euros.

It's just that with the same budget I can obtain an X570 model.

Which specific board? I'm having trouble locating something suitable on the Denmark PCpp site that fits around 200 euros. The X570 TUF Plus and Tomahawk look decent if you manage to find them, as do the X570 AORUS Elite when the others aren't available.

The gaming plus and its advantages stand out, though the x570 TUF Plus performs well too. If you're looking for alternatives, the B550M Mortar or B550M TUF Plus are solid options. The boards I mentioned earlier—B550 A Pro, Aorus Pro, Tomahawk, Strix F—are also reliable choices.

I can visit the site, but only the B550 model is available; there’s just one X570 version, which I’d rather avoid because I have room for an ATX model.

As I mentioned earlier, the B550 Tomahawk works well when you're willing to try, while the X570 Gaming Edge Wi-Fi and Gaming Plus fall short—don’t think about them. The X570 TUF Plus is better if you’re looking to push things further.
