ASUS ROG STRIX B550 Difference between B550-A / B550-F

Hello, anybody have any feedback regards these two boards please.

Been looking so much at boards the past three days im really struggling to make a solid decision nothing price wise stands out to make a sway in any direct yet.

Looked at X570 and B550 respectfully, The ROG Strix boards look solid choices and great reviews sadly the X570 version was over my budget settle for either of the below as ASUS offering £25 quid cash back also.

Sadly found better deals elsewhere and can either version for £160 so any difference's between models? other than colour from what i can see or read?

Also other than the above mentioned This X570 board by MSI also falls in to my budget any thoughts to that either please?

I think the B550-F and B550-A are the same spec wise. Just the colour that is different.

I have the B550-F. A few people have reported issues with the board, but it's been rock solid for me (and others). Really happy with it. Moved from another Asus Rog board (X470-F) as I bought a new 5800X.
