I've faced constant problems with AM5 - EXPO, the system failing to boot, and no GPU support. It's really frustrating.
Noted several complaints about ASUS, but I've tested the ASUS TUF B650 PLUS WIFI in seven builds without any problems. EXPO used the Fury Beast 5600 and 6000 cl36.
Aourus gaming x670 elite AX appears to be a top choice currently. The model isn't overpriced compared to other options, and level one techs highlight its strong VRM and PCI design for optimal performance. It features four M.2 SSD slots, with the first being Gen 5—useful since most modern GPUs don’t use Gen 5 and won’t block the lanes. Multiple reviews confirm consistent top results, often just a slight edge over competitors.
In short, the discussion highlights that focusing on one brand isn't enough to generalize its reliability. While Asus often comes up for memory problems, it remains the most popular choice overall.
