Hi,
I need advice on which motherboard to pick for a small pc, I am building for my parents. I have no love for any brand. Features and price is very similar on them, so I hope you can help me pick.
For a CPU I am going with either
Ryzen 5 3400G or Ryzen 5 Pro 3350G
£94.95 Gigabyte B450 I AORUS PRO WIFI
£94.99 ASRock A520M-ITX/ac Mini ITX AM4 Motherboard
£99.99 MSI B450I Gaming PLUS AC
£102.98 Gigabyte A520I AC Mini ITX AM4 Motherboard
£104.99 ASRock Fatal1ty B450 Gaming-ITX/ac
£124.99 ASRock B550M-ITX/ac Mini ITX AM4 Motherboard
I was thinking about X570 board but cheapest one is £189.95 other than support for newer gen CPU I don’t believe it’s worth extra money.
Budget. £500-£600

Case is different one, but it was closest I could find on pcpartpicker.

I already bought Case for £47.95 and ram £57.44
I have bids for Ryzen 3400G and Samsung 970 Evo but if they fail I will go with Ryzen 3350G and Kingston A2000 1TB
