What about this one,
Ryzen 9 9950X
G.Skill Ripjaws 96GB DDR5 5200mhz *plan to double it ata later moment)
Gigabyte Windforce RTX 5060
Samsung 990 Pro 2Tb SSD,
Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro,
beQuiet Straight Power 12 850 80+ Platinum
beQuiet Shadow Base 800 case.
I had initially ordered the Gigabyte B650 AORUS ELITE AX V2 because of its solid build, good VRMs, and my past experience with B550 + 5950X, which has always been stable. The B650 seemed like a safe and balanced option.
However, since delivery is delayed, I’m considering switching to the Gigabyte X870 EAGLE WIFI7. It costs about €50 more, but offers USB4, dual PCIe 5.0 M.2 slots, newer BIOS support for Ryzen 9000, and Wi-Fi 7.
I don’t plan on using GPU rendering or dual Gen5 SSDs anytime soon, but I do value long-term reliability and smooth performance under heavy CPU loads.
Do you think it’s worth switching, or should I stick with the B650?
