Asus B650 motherboard prices
Seems the costs have risen at Guru 3D regarding the B550-F launch price, which was around 239.95 euros. The new launch price appears to be 366 euros for the F version. If these figures are accurate, could you clarify why the motherboard costs 126 euros more than before? The top model is 428. Perhaps enthusiasts want to research the actual manufacturing expenses and component prices. Are we receiving a reasonable value as buyers? For such prices, you can likely assemble an Am4 system using second-hand parts.
The listing shows a price of 149€, which is indeed lower than the 239€ you mentioned.
The page at Guru 3D provides updated pricing details. Please note this might be a slight oversimplification. Current estimates suggest: premium boards range from 300 to 600 euros, mid-range from 200 to 270 euros, budget options between 110 and 190 euros. The older 550-F model is now available for around 150 euros, which is significantly lower than its original price two years ago. The newer B650-F model starts at 366 euros. If these figures hold, the extra 126 euros for a similar board feels justified by features like PCIe 5.0, M.2 5.0, and a high-quality audio chip. I appreciate your interest in a well-designed build that balances performance, aesthetics, and functionality.
