Budget Board for Ryzen 5 1600

[gameboyzzzz]

After decades, I am finally moving to AMD because of price. Ryzen caught my eye because of it's attractive price. But when I went to buy one in a nearby local store, they suggested me this board:

ASrock AB350M-hdv

I am already extremely tight on budget and actually I was going for the A320 boards. The one I was going for was Gigabyte AB350M-HD3 But they offered a bundle of ryzen 1600 and this board which saves quite a few, making it really closely priced to a320 boards together. Now what do you say about the board? I have never used ASrock before. Is there any problem about the longevity or power delivery? Shall I be able to OC the 1600 in future with this board or will there be issues? Thanks.

The ASRock only has a 4 pin supplemental CPU power connector. That will have VERY limited overclocking capabilities. It also has only a single PCIe slot. They both have limited audio outputs and limited fan connections. Between the two, I would go Gigabyte, but not enthusiastic about either.
