and im looking real hard at this mobo it has great reviews and i know its overkill so if anyone thinks i can save some money and stick with a b550 im open for sugestions. the asus rog b550 f gaming is tops right now but if im upgrading should i go ahead and go x570.

    Yes it will as the newer AM4 Socket CPUs from AMD are compatible as are the chipsets.

    The x570 tomahawk was 220 bucks over a month ago. Maybe the b550 is worth it but slightly cheaper.

    asus is working great no complaints and after i figured a few things out with bios everything came together and it was ryzen 5000 ready, dropped the 5600x in and booted right up.
