Hello, I am building my first pc (Ryzen 5 1500x GTX 1050 ti) & am having trouble finding a motherboard, I am looking at the ASRock AB350M ($40). I thought i would go cheap on the mobo since im not interested in sli or crossfire or upgrading in the future. I have two questions, am I in the right mindset or would it be a better gaming experience with say a $70 motherboard? & Is the AB350M compatible with my cpu & gpu?
 
Solution
Yes, that looks like a bargain. Although Ryzen is supported with all BIOS versions, upgrading the BIOS to the latest version should be one of the first things to do if system is in good running condition.
