There are also B650E based ones (ASRock B650E PG-ITX WiFi & ASUS ROG Strix B650E-I Gaming WIFI for example) but are much higher priced!Based on these prices we have +28% miscalculation or they just lied.
It's one of the above options if we don't have within October $125 B650s and neither is good for AMD management.

No idea why they didn't make basic options with B. I hope they'll suffer worse than normal people.
Truth be told, they weren't really involved in them for years, so topics mostly revolved about how nobody there listens to customers, and that bugs don't ever ger repaired.
After the ransomware hack in 2021 company really took a nosedive, trailing behind competitors in bios revisions. And their software does look like abandonware.
I bought Gigabyte X570 Aorous Elite, like many others - it was a bit cheaper than competition with the same specs. Was it worth it? No, I don't think it was.
