A:Answer B650M C-Y1 Motherboard. The Ryzen 5 in it is just as good as the previous Ryzen 7. I run Unreal Engine on it, obviously steam has no issues, the entire adobe creative suite runs great, on top of FL Studios (an audio recording program for music) works phenomenally. I will mention that I had these programs open at once with zero latency issues. Really the only downside to this device is that the Windows app store is no longer on this tower after the Windows 11 update. I purchased it with 11 on it already and any time it tried to access any ms-link (even going directly through the site to download), it also gives errors back. This is apparently a common issue with this specific tower, and I've troubleshot many times and ran Powershell commands to directly download and it gave the same error. This only bothers me back I want to link my phone to Windows.
But besides all of that, phenomenal tower, sper over-zealous firewall though.
