exactly what i just purchased it for, it seems very good fit for it and has usb c for front end of case.
im thinking of aio cooling it as well.
did exactly all of that. cant fault it
what cooler/ case did you use? im pairing it with a 7800xt
@eclipse398: 😊I ended up cancelling this b650 tomahawk order and getting the better b650 carbon for same price through this catch seller: https://www.catch.com.au/product/msi-mpg-b650-carbon-wifi-at…
Its basically the next tier motherboard above tomahawk so i grabbed it since same price just a bit longer shipment.
I think il get a 4000D or 5000D corsair case with a 240mm corsair liquid cooler, still on the lookout for case fans but probs some corsair ones as well to make rgb control easier.@BananaMan007: my order is too late to cancel according to eBay. i dont mind buying the same one from eBay NZ seller but it is too late for me and not really a big deal.
probably worth it for the local warranty.@eclipse398: Mines said same (not shipped yet), i just contacted them yesterday night and they cancelled this morning. Yeah i think that's the only risk i also had a look at the ebay nz one but i had already messed around too much setting up catch so i just ordered through there. Both are good i guess the carbon is just for future proofing, i went to pick up some parts from umart and i chose the cooler and case:

https://www.umart.com.au/product/corsair-h150-rgb-360mm-aio-…
This means you don't have to buy any fans and all of them are RGB with corsair software so that will be good. I think you can probs get the cooler for $10 less by pricematching. The case seems decent it comes with 3 rgb corsair fans and the cooler is 3 more (front mount) so its set.
Im just looking for ram + ssd but motherboard will be start of jan so i have some time. The tech dude at umart definitely recommended to get ram with EXPO certified since they have seen way too many issues with unstable ram clocks.
@BananaMan007: case was coolermaster TD500 Mesh and I got the Corsair H150i Elite Capellex.
Paired with a 7900 xtx
@perfectlydark: nice. i got similar cooler (h150 instead of h150i) and 4000D airflow case. is there anything you recommend for ram 32gigs seems enough for me for now but if a good 64 gig deal pops up i might get that. nice GPU, what do you use it for? gaming, work or AI stuff?
@BananaMan007: sweet! yeah 32gb is plenty for gaming, or even most tasks really, but if you get a good deal on 64 why not, cant hurt. I mainly use for gaming and 3D design. Not smart enough for AI
How are these with fast memory?
disregarding am5 instability with ddr5 ram, i think on latest bios version it can clock up high (theoretically 7000+) but if you get a compatible ram kit 6400 should be good and stable. this is their official approved mem kits which allegdly go up to 7600. im waiting for a ram deal which hopefully is close enough with something on the list.
https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/MAG-B650-TOMAHAWK-WIFI/suppo…This memory thing is such a bummer. I don't wanna get another Intel but AMD is making it a real pain to switch.
Dont go above 6000mt/s with am5
I don't know about this board, but I can't seem to get more than 5400 stable on my Strix B650E-F with certified compatible 6000 Kingston Fury RAM.
apparently its best chance of working if it has expo certification
It has two EXPO profiles! And even the 5600 one doesn't work properly.
Nice $150 board.
ikr? Insane people have become conditioned to think $300 + is ok for a midrange board.
Nice shit post - the VRM on the B650 is already AUD $180+ in just partsB550 Tomahawk

Its been a bit cheaper (about $6 less) from same seller before.
They had it for $303.42 with eBay Plus on Black Friday, but only 3 available so couldn't be posted here.
Came down to $230.24 if stacked with all the cashback and gift card offers that were also available at the time.
Love Tomahawk boards I have used 2 in the past for both AM4 and LGA1700, and i will continue to use tomahawks in the future, I will never stop recommending this board as it is such a good price to performance board with plenty of I/O for most use cases.
Will this go well with the AMD 7800X3D?
