MSI MOTHERBOARD Z370 PC PRO (INTEL SOCKET 1151/8TH GENERATION CORE SERIES CPU/MAX 64GB DDR4-4000MHZ MEMORY)
GIGABYTE Z370M-D3H Motherboard (Intel Socket 1151/8TH Generation Core Series CPU/MAX 64GB DDR4-4000MHz Memory)

Both are good for non-k/non-OC processor(aka not "good vrm" but "decent vrm").

How you find VRM quality ?

It is not recommended to use a cheap motherboard with i7


Mod Edit: Edited for color. Text wasn't visible on black TDF theme.


What happened to intel core i7 8700 price ? It showing 27000. but two days before they mentioned as 24,500 . I checked mdcompyters , itdepot , primeabgb and vedant .. only mdcomputers is 26,999 ..others above this,

Why this price increase ?

Yes prices of only the i7 8700 and 8700k CPUs went up. Rest all the CPUs were unaffected for whatever the reason. I think You might have to look at Ryzen now if you want to save 4-5k in CPU

B450 Tomahawk is fine but in my opinion not suitable for a 2600X.Better to spend some more & get this,it has one of the best VRMs in all B450 mobos.

If no OC then it should be fine.Difference is ~3.5k hence suggested as you will not only get a better board but you will also have the option of better OC if you want it in future. Out of that 3.5k difference you will also be getting an inbuilt AC wifi in mobo & a usb ac wifi dongle also cost ~1k so effectively the difference is ~2.5k only between this & B450 Tomahawk.

What about B450 A Pro ?

Based on all your needs, intel's IPC will gain a better advantage than Ryzen's 6c/12T.
Not to mention, you wouldnt need to purchase a dummy GPU and you will have your options open for trying our hackintosh.
This is coming from someone who owns a Ryzen PC.
