Best X570 Motherboards for Gaming & OC [Budget, Mid & High-end]

AMD X570 is the flagship chipset for the new 3^rd Generation AMD Ryzen Desktop Processors or Ryzen 3000 series CPUs. It is the first chipset that supports PCIe 4.0, which doubles the bandwidth over PCIe 3.0 from 1GB/s per lane, or 16GB/s on an x16 slot to 2GB/s per lane, or 32GB/s on an x16 slot. X570 Motherboards are based on the AM4 socket, which is also the socket for the first- and second-generation AMD Ryzen Desktop processors. However, the X570 chipset does not support 1st generation AMD Ryzen processors, but 2nd Generation Ryzen processors are supported. X570 motherboards are designed especially for the latest 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen processor (Ryzen 3000 series “Matisse” processors) that include AMD Ryzen 9 3900X, Ryzen 7 3800X, Ryzen 7 3700X, Ryzen 5 3600X, and Ryzen 5 3600 that also support PCIe 4.0. It also includes the support for the PCIe 4.0 Radeon RX 5000 series graphics cards and PCIe 4.0 NVMe drives.

X570 motherboards support up to 16x PCIe 4.0 lanes, up to 12 SATA 6Gbps Ports, 4x USB HiSpeed 480Mbps, 8x USB SuperSpeed+ 10Gbps, and all of the PCIe 4.0, USB, and storage I/O from the AMD Ryzen Processor. Due to the high-speed PCIe 4.0 interface and other features, the TDP of the X570 is on the higher side compared to the X470, and most of the X570 motherboards use an active cooling solution (fan with heatsink) for their chipset to keep it cool. The X470 has a TDP of 6W (on average) and no active cooling is needed for it, but the TDP of the X570 chipset can go to up to 15W, 11W for consumer motherboards and 15W for enterprise ones. Just like its predecessor, X570 also supports overclocking, and the high-end motherboards using the X570 chipset include more VRM power phases for stability to achieve higher overclocking performance.

X570 Motherboards are compatible with all the 2^nd Generation Ryzen 7/5/3 processors that also include the Ryzen based APUs with built-in Vega Graphics. However, it does not support 1^st generation Ryzen Desktop processors, which I have said earlier too. Also, the older X470 and B450 chipsets will continue the support the Ryzen 3000 series processors. X370 and B350 can also support Ryzen 3000 series CPUs through BIOS update, but that depends solely on the motherboard manufacturer. Below, you can see the compatibility of various AMD Socket AM4 Chipsets with AMD Ryzen Desktop Processors.

Chipset Compatibility	1st Gen Ryzen Processors (APU included)	2nd Gen Ryzen Processors (APU included)	3rd Gen Ryzen Processors
X570	No	Yes	Yes
X470	Yes	Yes	Yes
B450	Yes	Yes	Yes
X370	Yes	Yes	BIOS update needed
B350	Yes	Yes	BIOS update needed
A320	Yes	Yes	No

There are more than fifty X570 motherboard models that are available from major motherboard manufacturers that include Asus, MSI, Gigabyte, ASRock, Colorful, and Biostar. Also, they are available in different form factors and pricing, depending on their specifications and quality of components used. So, here in this post, I am going to list down the best budget, mid-range, and high-end X570 motherboards for your gaming and work needs.

Best Budget X570 Motherboards

Here are some of the best affordable or you can say budget X570 motherboards that you can use for gaming and work. They are best to be used with Ryzen 7 3700X, Ryzen 5 3600X and Ryzen 5 3600.

MSI X570-A PRO Motherboard

If you are looking for a budget X570 that also offers a decent amount of performance then MSI X570-A PRO is one of the good options out there in the market. It is an ATX form factor motherboard that comes with all the essential features that you need to build a gaming or work PC. It comes with one PCIe 4.0 x16 slot that supports PCIe 4.0 graphics cards, one PCIe 4.0 x4 / 3.0 x16 slot, three PCIe 3.0 x1 slots for add-on or expansion cards, and two M.2 slots for hooking up lighting fast PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSDs. The motherboard comes with plenty of USB 3.2 Gen1 ports and also includes USB 3.2 Gen2 and USB Type-C 3.2 Gen1 reversible connectors. The motherboard can support up to 128GB DDR4 RAM running at speed of up to 4400 MHz in A-XMP OC MODE. However, it is better to use a 3200MHz RAM for better performance and compatibility with the newer AMD Ryzen 3000 series processors.

The X570 chipset on this motherboard is actively cooled using a heatsink and fan, and to keep the noise minimum, it employs MSI Zero Frozr cooling technology, where the fan remains shut off during lower loads and temperatures, and it starts automatically when the temperature of the chipset crosses a certain threshold temperature during higher loads. Other features of the motherboard include PCI-E Steel Armor slot, Onboard 8-channel Realtek audio, overclocking support, MSI Mystic Light Sync support through 4-pin RGB headers, DDR4 Boost, Core Boost Technology, RAID support, 2-Way AMD CrossFire Technology Support. Overall, a decent motherboard that is sufficient for most of the users.

Note: If you can shell out some extra bucks then you can get the MSI MPG X570 GAMING EDGE WIFI Motherboard, which is basically the same motherboard, but comes with in-built Wi-Fi that can be a major requirement for some users.
