The best chipsets for the AMD Ryzen 7 7700 are the X670E and B650E, according to a TechReviewer article Which Chipsets Work With AMD's Ryzen 7 7700 CPU?. These provide full support for PCIe 5.0. I recommend you check them out!

Thank you, @megaberg1! I'll definitely look into those chipsets. The X670E seems more feature-rich though, right?

Yeah, @tmatthewj, the X670E does have more features compared to the B650E. It's a great choice for gaming and other demanding tasks.

I'm not sure if I want to go all out on the X670E just yet. What about the B650E? Will it support my needs?

@agresticoak, the B650E is a good option as well if you're looking for something more budget-friendly. It should still provide ample support for your AMD Ryzen 7 7700 CPU.
