I'm looking into a bit of a PC rebuild from my current AM4 Ryzen 5800x. While i'm not opposed to Intel I thought I would go with AM5 as they will probably support it through next few CPU generations.

As the PC is for gaming, I wont likely need an X670, so was looking at the B650 or B650E. I have seen that the Gigabyte Aorus Master B650e is supposed to be a great board, I don't want to spend £400ish.

Main things i'm after are decent thermal performance and stability, and at least 3 M.2 SSD slots. Wont be overclocking.

Any recommendations from B650/E owners for decent motherboards for around £200ish? I'd go to £250 but that's the top end of what I want to spend, and would prefer to save the money for other parts of the build.

Cheers
 
I got a ASUS B650E-E and it’s been fine so far. Had issues with the Intel nic but it’s working ok now, not tried the WIFI so don’t know what that is like. I don’t have any PCIe 5 stuff so not tried that.
Is that the ROG Strix B650E-E? I can see that’s available for a little over 250 or there is a B650E-F for around 220
