Hi all,
After doing my research I have selected the above mobo but now having second thoughts due to random topics found reporting issues with this board. It also seemed to be a more budget options for X670E chipset when it released so hope there are no important corners cut.
No matter what board I look up, there are some issues with it or it does not meet my needs. I am not bothered about wifi7 or usb4 but wanted somethings with plenty of usb and m2 slots and would prefer to avoid the lane sharing that a lot of 800s have. This seems to tick all the boxes and costs £160 (assume due to it being an older chipset) so much cheaper than all the other options.
I don't mind paying more if I get more features (but not £400+) but it does not seem to be that simple for AM5.
Any thoughts?
I will be using this with 9800x3d.

Thank you.
This is one example. Others that I cannot find now complain about long boot times although unclear if they mean "long" as in couple of secs more or "long" as in minutes. There are some things as well complaining about RAM issues in it.

One thing is that no matter which board I choose, there is someone somewhere complaining about it. So there is that.

Ahh, yeah, I did see that thread.

Memory compatibility, EXPO/XMP issues, long boot times (and other boot problems) have been commonly reported since AM5 launched and as you said, you can find similar complaints for almost all boards.

That thread isn't one that would put me off.
