Not that expensive if you buy mobo bundled with the cpu. I bought 3700x + x570 aorus master from techview. 2650 bucks . Its in PJ.

If you really want a x570 mobo, all of them also very expensive. If you want R7 3700x and a mobo below 2k , it is possible but it will be a B450 board.

Then u need RAM. I bought Gskill Trident Z RGB 8Gbx2 3600mhz CL18 from Topmaid at 470 bucks per kit. Thats a Samsung B die RAM. I have both Trident Z and Trident Z Neo. Same memory chips on the same PCB.

If you think Aorus Master too expensive but you want an X570 platform at a cost then got 2 options for you. You can opt for the Asus TUF Gaming X570-Plus Wifi ( this mobo plenty available at lowyat plaza , Topmaid i think offered me 850 bucks) , but it is using Realtek LAN .

You can opt for Gigabyte x570 Aorus Elite also if you need Intel LAN. I think this or the Asus X570 TUF Gaming Plus Wifi is the bare minimum you should buy for an X570 board. If you want cheaper , buy B450 better . But you have to be aware , cheaper boards dont come with SLI support.

It is recommended to go 3600Mhz on the RAM if you can afford it.

AMD has recommended 3600Mhz CL16 for Ryzen 3000 series. But CL16 for 3600Mhz is damn rare here. Most 3600Mhz kits sold in lowyat plaza are all CL18. You have to OC it manually .
