wi-fi onboard, supporting wi-fi, USB 3.2 (at least 3 ports) PCIe 4.0 (for at least 2 M.2 SSD) , -at least-1 Gigabith R-45 Ethernet, USB A (at least 3) and USB C, without RGB Features (in the worst case scenario if it has to come with it, with an easy way to disable RGB). My budget for this is C$250 tops My priorities are 1 Asus brand, number 2 Gigabyte brand. I would appreciate suggestions and comments within my specs I would also consider X570 Models from same manufacturers if its price is lower. I would like to use AMD Ryzen 5 3600 and 2x16GB 3200 Mhtz Ram modules Please and thank you

I went for this also....great board, easy to disable RGB on the board. One downside, no USB-C header on the board (there is a port on the backplate). So I've ordered a Silverstone PCIe card that should solve the issue and allow me to use my case's front panel USB-C!!
Little offtopic so that I won't open a new thread. Do B550 boards have the same limitations as B450 where if you had a M.2 drive it disabled 2 SATA ports.
