I have run into this problem where I am in need of fast storage as both my SSDs are near full.
I have an incoming project in January for which I will be using Unreal Engine and the project files are going to take up some storage.
Planning to get a 4tb ssd with DRAM that is going to be used for my OS.
I will have to reinstall windows on it and all of my softwares, so I figured I should upgrade my old B550M with a full sized ATX. Given the market availability is it even possible to get hands on an X570 board?
If not are there any good B550 motherboards which fit my usecase? Having 3 ssd slots would help a lot. I also need a type C.
Primary usecase is Adobe After Effects, Blender, Unreal Engine, Photoshop, SDXL local.
Some options I have across are
MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk Max Wifi
Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite AX V2
MSI MPG B550 GAMING PLUS
ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING Wifi II
AsRock x570S PG Riptide
Motherboard budget is 15-20k.
