this board is more expensive then the cheaper Asrock and MSI B450 boards (most B450 boards go for about $70-$110) but again if you Republic of Gamers on a budget, dont need Nvidia SLi (which Im assuming you're only running 1 GPU if you're getting this), need good a OC-ing B450 board, and higher quality then those Cheaper Asrock and MSI as well as the god awful
