I went with a Z790 motherboard

So, I recently upgraded my PC, and I went with a Z790 motherboard. It's amazing! The performance boost is insane.

Z790? That’s one of the newer Intel boards, right? Did you go for DDR5 RAM too?

Yep, DDR5. I figured if I’m upgrading, might as well future-proof it. Plus, the built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on this board are game-changers. No more messy adapters.

That’s cool, but I’m still stuck with my B450. It’s solid, though. I mean, for gaming, it gets the job done, especially since I paired it with a Ryzen 5.

Wait, hold up. What exactly is the difference between these motherboards? I’m not super tech-savvy, but I know I need to upgrade my PC.

Good question! The motherboard is like the backbone of your PC. Different boards support different CPUs, RAM types, and features. For example, Usman’s Z790 is for Intel’s newer chips, and Ali’s B450 is for AMD processors.

Oh, so I have to decide between Intel and AMD first?

And don’t forget budget. AMD boards like B450 or B550 are often cheaper than the Intel counterparts but still perform great.

Hmm, makes sense. So what about connectivity? I hate dealing with slow Wi-Fi.
