Chipset itself doesn’t matter, it it dates the board.
On AM4 basically every board has it. Maybe the really dire boards would skit it, but they’re skipping so much more first. Starting with early AM5 (6XX) and it actually started disappearing and now with 8XX it’s getting much less popular.
Also how’s your B350 board holding up? My X370 board died after about 3.5 years, and my friends X370 had been acting up after about 5. Maybe the higher end chipsets are cursed? I sure hope my new board lasts because I paid a fuck ton for it.
Just fine so far, but thanks a lot for jinxing it! 😠
It’s a Gigabyte AB350N-Gaming WiFi, which is a mini-ITX board, so having the B-series chipset was probably less about making it cheap and more about the features of fancier chipsets being wasted on a board that didn’t have enough space to implement the connectors for them. Therefore, it might like slightly higher quality than some other B350 boards.
