Looking at buying a B550 as not sure the X570 will be worth it for me, don't plan to OCUK, but do plan to have 2 M.2's to replace my sata SSD and HDD.

I have looked at the product pages but cannot see anything glaring at me to be different.

Aside from that, I did look at the F as the board I would like, preferably under 200, seems to tick the boxes. As well as a free SSD.
 
the expenisve one has wifi.

E has 3 x16 slots meaning you can run the top 2 slots in x8/x8 mode for SLI or whatever you fancy. i suspect you can run it as x8; x4/x4 so you can slot 2 nvme card into that x16 with adaptor.

where the F just has a x16 from chipset @ x4 speed (which the E also has)

basically more configurable PCIe lanes plus wifi
 
I meant I don't plan to OC not OCUK* ha.

Well single card here, no plans for 2. Think the F is the best choice for me, it's a decent price. 2 nvme is the plan.
