Now is not black Friday. MB is not recommended to buy an export set.


He asked for the cheapest board to pair 5600G.. nobody said to use it and pair it with 5950x.
Why u need check prices then recommend? Again, anyhow. Who say cannot buy export? Since when cheapest must exclude export?

While the DS3H is already known to be one of the cheapest boards, it doesn't hurt to quickly search for the current prices and include it in the response.

"not recommended" is not equivalent to "cannot buy". The reason behind it for MBs is self-explanatory.



To be honest, it's pointless for me to reply to your response that is out of context in the first place. I don't want to look like a person entertaining the troll, so I will stop here.

Again like act smart but not smart actually. Current prices just go shoppee and see.. Which part of cheapest do you understand?

if really want cheapest, go on taobao and get used msi b450m mortar, can find for $50 and is overall a better board than the b550m ds3h; arguably more suited to pair with 5600g since both are pcie3 only.
3950x is not 5950x ... 1 hour blender test dont reflect anything..
steve did mention in one of his videos that the 5950x drew about the same power as the 3950x; if anything, the 3950x actually consumed more power. letting the system be on full load for an hour does show how competent the board is in handling high power workloads: if u get a 5950x and pair it with a board with poor quality vrms u might get a situation where the board throttles the cpu to save itself from burning up, thus losing performance. indirectly it can be a yardstick for how long ur mobo may be able to continue working, since better quality components (which by definition should last longer in the first place) means lower temperatures which is good for longevity. perhaps these may not matter to u since u are more interested in cpu mining, but these tests arent just do for fun only.

True, as long as one is willing to go to that extent. I personally wouldn't mind myself taking the risk myself.

That's right, and the 3950x used for testing is OC-ed as well.
