I’m selling my X470 Aorus UG asap and in the meantime will be replacing it. I was originally going to get the Asus X570-P, and I think thats still an OK choice as it has an 8 pin plus a 4 pin for CPU power, but my max I’m willing to do is 180. Is there a better board than what the X570-P has to offer VRM wise for 10 or 20 bucks? If something floors it in comparison for 25 bucks I’ll do that, no problem.
Other board I’m looking at is the Asrock Steel Legend.
Thx guys
You dont need more then an 8pin for the cpu, I have done both my 3900x and 1950x both only on 1 8pin. It can handle the power on non exotic cooling. So dont worry to much about that imo. Buildzoid does a round up of all x570/x470 boards and gives his opinion on those. To be honest most board will work just fine with again normal use and light overclocking.
This.
Not to mention basically any airflow over the VRMs will help even some of the worst offenders. So if you are concerned just make sure you have a case fan over them.
The Gigabyte x570 Aorus Elite is pretty much the best,
board you could get on a budget vrm wise.
But the board is a little bit bare bones when it comes to trouble shooting features.
But other then that, if the board has to be cheap,
then the Elite is a decent choice.
It has a similar vrm to the Asrock x570 Taichi.
pwm: ISL69138 in 6+1 phase mode doubled to 12+2. with ISL6617 doublers.
powerstages: 12x ISL Sic634´s 50A DRmos for Vcore.
This is pretty much the same Vcore vrm you will get on the Asrock X570 Taichi.
The only difference is that Asrock is using the ISL69147 pwm,
which is a newer version of the said voltage controller family.
