Hi everyone, I'm planning to build a new system with Ryzen 1600, now before you guys asking why I choose the 1st gen over the 2nd gen (ryzen 2600). Well the reason is price differences. Ryzen 1600 in my country cost around $173 and the 2600 cost around $200, it is pretty big at least for me. As for the board itself, price difference between b450 and b350 are almost the same.

So, according to the title, which board should I get for the 1600? b350 or b450?

Now you're adding another variable. 1st gen Asus board vs 2nd gen MSI board. I too favor Asus over MSI. I think I'd be tempted to get the Asus even if it is older gen. Here is the US, there is only about a $15 difference in them at this time.
That's a bit of a tougher call...

@clutchc Thanks for the advice, I have 2 choices of board, Asus Rog Strix b350-f and MSI b450 Tomahawk, both are on the exact same price. Do you think the Strix b350-f not worth it at all? I know you already suggest me to get the newer tech with the b450, it's just I kinda like Asus products especially with those ROG lineup.
