Looking for the best gaming motherboard for your rig? With the recent arrival of the AMD Ryzen 5000 series CPUs and Intel Core 9000 series CPUs, there are lots of new motherboards on the market and you may not know what you're looking for anymore. Last generation chipsets from AMD and Intel still pack a punch for gaming, however, so if you don't need the latest and greatest we've got options for you here, too.
Pairing the best gaming CPU with a motherboard that lets it do its business as intended is vital for your gaming setup. So we’ve taken the best Intel motherboards from the Z490 down to more mainstream chipsets, and the best AMD motherboards from the latest X570 down to budget B450 chipsets, and tested and compared them. Whether you’re looking for something cheap and cheerful that doesn’t hinder performance, or something top-of-the-line if money isn’t an issue, we’ve got you covered.
If you have an Intel CPU you need an Intel motherboard (and make sure it’s one with the right socket!), and if you have an AMD CPU you need an AMD motherboard. To keep things simple we’ve split this guide up into two parts, with Intel motherboards first and AMD motherboards second.
