Capt Caveman, I do not own both a x370 and x470 boards myself so all I can tell you is what I've seen in other people's benchmarks.
I'll just leave one of them here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKgC2tWcvvc
A cheap b350 board vs an expensive x470 board.
Even these chipsets seems to perform identical. (margin of error stuff)
Presuming you bought a well performing x370 board, it looks like you don't have to worry about loosing much performance.
Perhaps someone who tried this for themselves could verify this as I only have the internet as my source.
With kind regards,
stAbb
