I work at a PC hardware retailer in Canada. Our company bought so many B650M gaming wifi's that we ended up bundling them with the 7800x3d and a 32gb ram kit for 700 CAD (500 USD). It sold really well considering if you weren't bundling you would have to pay for around 900 for an alternative.

I've got the Asrock B650M HDV for my current HTPC and gaming builds. It's simple, reliable and does everything i need with Ryzen 7700's. I've used ASRock HDV boards in previous builds without hiccups, both Intel and AMD. But i would not use them for high end systems and workstations. The Ryzen 7700 is all i need for my home computing needs to be honest. I don't play AAA and competitive games anymore. Most is Indie, AA and older games in 4K144Hz. Currently a lot of Insurgency Sandstorm and No Man's Sky. For my CAD/3D workstation, i use Full ATX boards and HEDT sockets in 19" Rackmount with split trays for fast SSD RAID storage. I'm on a Intel Xeon build currently, but i may consider Threadripper for a future build. I chose Intel in 2021, because of reliability and stability only. Threadripper 3000 had some small issues. It would be cool, if you guys could do workstation tests.

Sound chipsets can vary wildly. Most wouldn't need a dac but would like a higher grade onboard chipset. It only needs the chipset type to be added to the reviews, so no testing required. Some higher cost mobo's use cheap sound chipsets. Steve regularly says he doesn't know why a board warrants a higher price, but ignores the sound chipset and pcb layers/copper track quality. Likely the extra costs are there.

Spent days systematically swapping parts and keeping track of hardware combos with several BIOS revisions to no avail. Its system building, can be frustrating, sometimes it works the first go around, sometimes computers just don't want to cooperate. I ended up spending a little more money on a suggested board the MSI MAG b650 Tomahawk wifi. The only hiccup was an outdated BIOS and the long RAM train time but it was worth it.

I dunno where they get their prices from - every time EVERY TIME they say something like "The ASRock B650 LiveMixer is a $150 US" I go and look and it's $350 with some sellers asking $500 for it. For some reason I ALWAYS end up either paying 150~250% more than Tech-Reviewers claim they sell for or I end up buying them used for about what they say new ones go for. The only occasional exceptions are RAM and Mechanical Hard Drives - And I have been buying parts for and building, about 2 systems per month for the past 8 or 9 years - for retirement income. I dunno, but I think these reviews should omit price as a consideration - it's NEVER what is being claimed. Just review the boards for: Number of layers, Trace layout, VRM & MOSFIT, Number and Type of slots (PCIe/USB/SATA/RAM/M.2/Audio/FAN connections, etc.) - half of which you guys don't even cover. And then comment on the other "special features" like: on-board power button, error code display, socket to RAM distance, Audio subsystem noise and fidelity, Manufacturer RMA rates, possible case incompatibilities and so on. I dunno, it seems you're doing all that work to look up and evaluate based on price and it's just too volatile to go by - At least it's NEVER correct for me.

I bought an ASRock board back in the Core 2 Duo days that served me faithfully for almost 6 years. Even my current X470 board is ASRock, and going on 5 years itself.

I bought the ASRock riptide b650e WiFi. It's a nice looking board and worked great so far. Its been running for 7 months

SO glad you covered micro atx. most people dont but that lian-li 011 air mini is a Fantastic case lol. always nice to have good mobo options.. Though manufactures really need to move the pcie mini to above the gpu as gpus have gotten so large this is wasted space. Also I had a msi meg unify board with power and reset buttons on them. Should be standard for any board even remotely capable of overclocking as its soo handy when the machine fails while testing different oc's. another thing i dug up during my search for a board for the 9000's series launch was which boards are currently capable of handling higher ram speeds. in the atx models the gigabyte b650 auros elite ax went to 6800 i dont remember if any of the others did but i do know the asus tuff board only went to 6000mhz

AsRock rocking lately with the boards. Got a B450 fatality running on my AM4 system for more than 5 years without any temp issues

I normally don't give a thumbs up before I watch a video but since you demanded your payment up front I did it first thing ....... Hopefully I won't be disappointed ......

I'm glad I got the Asrock B650-HDV/M.2 when I did at $120. It's been rock solid since i bought it.

I've been using Asrock for AMD motherboards since AM3+, and on AM4 I have had the B350m, B450m, and B550m PRO4 models; never had a single issue with any of the motherboards and even managed to get my B350m PRO4 to post with my Ryzen 1600 set to 4.0ghz and RAM 3200mhz back in 2017 when it was increasingly difficult and notorious to get these things to play nice on even high end motherboards. Big fan of Asrock ever since. Nice to see their newer Micro ATX PRO boards still going strong.

Steve, again another great video and very informative. I’m building my gaming PC and with the option of starting posting YT videos. I was wondering if you would pick the Taichi Lite vs the x670e Steel Legend?

After a bad experience with an ASRock AM4 Mini-ITX board, I wasn't sure whether I'd buy ASRock again anytime soon. But these recommendations are hard to deny! For context, it was an ASRock B550 Phantom Gaming-ITX/ax, unstable from the start and only got worse over time. Eventually replaced it with a Gigabyte B550I AORUS PRO AX which has been rock solid so far.

Similar thing with me, replacing a ASRock B650M RS PRO with a Gigabyte board because of choppiness and audio cutouts during gaming. Issues instantly resolved, even with the same Windows installation. BIOS and driver updates did nothing.
