Asrock taichi is pretty solid and stable, running the 5800x on it now.no ocing or anything . Are u buying new or used ? Buying new for 20k doesn't make sense
.
Was thinking of a new one,how much do old ones cost?

Old ones x570 chipset seller asking quite high(12 to 15k) Unless you get a good deal ...
Have a local guy selling msi x570 tomahawk, what do you think would be a good price for it? Its oow though
Don't spend more than 10k on it when you can get new B550M vdh pro wifi for around same unless you really need some x570 exclusive feature which basically means extra NVMe slot for most ppl.
Extra nvme and sata is why i want to upgrade otherwise my b450 tomahawk is great and stable

Another benefit of x570s is the higher quality VRMs(usually). Can help with high core count CPUs or 5800x at peak turbo.

Max 10k if it's in very good condition.
Not all x570 mobos have top tier VRMs. In fact there are many x570 mobos having similar or even worse VRMs than some good b550 mobos.
For NVMe you can get pcie to nvme adapter card which works fine unless you want to brag about benchmark transfers between two gen 4 NVMe transferring data between themselves at 6000MB/s. For extra sata ports many B550 mobos have 6 sata ports already & max I have seen on typical x570 mobos are 8 so it is not that big of a difference.

I've been using onw for almost 3 years. No complaints as such. Some annoyances . Like you can;t use all PCIe slots and M.2 slots at the same time. The Mobo fan was a bit noisy. Disconnected after the first week.
