sorted byGreat board a lots of M.2
Note it is DDR4, which is great if looking for a budget setup.
I paid like £180 a year ago?
Also there is some hassle with the 670, as you will probably have to update the bios on the 670. Which is easy enough, and the main issues with that are fixed by formatting the USB stick correctly.
Or you could maybe do 13700k on DDR4 vs 13600k on DDR5. There are probably a few options.
If it was me today and the price difference was £100 or so I'd go with the 760 and DDR5.
