    My current system:

    Case be quiet! Dark Base Pro 900 Rev. 2
    Motherboard Asus Strix X50 – E Gaming
    CPU AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
    Memory GSkill F4 3200 - 2 x 16Gb
    CPU Fan BE QUIET Dark Rock Pro 4
    Power 750W be quiet! Straight Pwr 11

    Q-Fan does not respond in BIOS (continuous high fan speed) - Upgraded Bios but no change. Need to now consider changing the motherboard. Due to cost, want to keep to AM4 and DDR4 memory. What are the Motherboard options please? Gaming is not a priority now.

    Should I go for Asus again?

    Upgrading your motherboard can be confusing due to compatibility issues with existing components like CPU, RAM, and GPU. Research thoroughly to ensure the new motherboard supports your current hardware and fits your needs regarding features and performance. Consider seeking advice from tech forums or consulting with a professional to avoid costly mistakes and ensure a smooth upgrade process.
