My motherboard died yesterday (red light of death, no video), so I have to use my old board until I get a new one. The poll shows the two I have my eye on. The ASUS one is more expensive and has more features, and has a rebate for the rest of the month. The MSI one is cheaper and I don’t have to go through the rebate process for a good price.
Note 1: This is not an inactivity notice, my computer works with my old board
Note 2: I’m sticking with B350 since A320 is too basic and X370 is too expensive

Get the ASUS, I’ve got one and it’s much better than the older MSI one that I had. A little big but it’s much cooler

I chose the Strix cause it had RGB

I have the B350M myself. Works well for me, but I don't know anything about motherboards
