Which model were you looking at? And what CPU and usage are you looking at?

While I don't have an X570 board, I know they have some good features on their boards in general for decent prices. The Taichi line is often very feature rich for what you are paying.

Hey I need attention too.

I’m thinking about picking up a 3700x and an Asrock X570 Steel Legend (atx) today total would be $455 USD. Open box motherboard.
Any thoughts regarding the steel legend?
Should I continue to fight the urge to buy a 3800x?
RGB lighting is irrelevant to me
Unlikely I’d over clock other than just mess with it because it’s there. No over clocking expectations
I’ll probably liquid cool, Corsair H100I maybe H115i.

I would say yes as an $80 price difference between the two buys you a nice cpu cooler or ssd or ram or a case. I doubt you're going to notice the 200mhz difference at stock clocks. Only real worry is if you want to seriously overclock and the 95w-105w chips might do that better than the 65w chips do as in the past 2 ryzen gens.

Zero over clock expectations other than to mess with it a couple of times then get bored of messing with it.
Thank you for talking sense.
