I have the ASUS B650E-I, super solid, no issue with EXPO-II, but for the price it better be. That said, I have my BIOS/UEFI is on 1410 Beta. Before that one, 0821 was stable, but slow to boot (14sec for me, reports of others were ~30sec. I am using the iGPU of the AMD CPU. I don't have a dedicated GPU... I am still waiting for my money tree to grow to get a GPU). So, with this latest BIOS, all is fixed, super stable on my side with my hardware configuration. I have 2 complaints with the board: It does have coil whine when power saving features of the CPU are enabled, and the system is idle, positive voltage offset of 0.045V. It doesn't affect temps nor performance (at least nothing visible from benchmarks on my side). Boot time, while fast with 1410, it still takes 11-12sec to boot, despite Memory Context Restore, Fast Boot enabled. POST Delay is forced to 1 sec, despite being set to 0sec. Intel platforms gets 7-9sec in comparison. If you wonder the RAM I have, I have the G.Skill F5-6000J3238F16G (32GB in 2 sticks of 16GB). It must be noted that my motherboard is an ITX one, as I have an ITX system. So, the board is automatically expensive as a result. Low production, and just costs more as higher quality or "fancier" room saving components needs to be purchased to save overall board space.
