the questiin remains: why do they put on all those pci stuff for a simple r5 processor. Fair enough is the stuff is expensive and x670 are expensive but a normal bare basic b650 without wlan and all that crap should really be around max 150. Otherwise it just makes no sense to upgrade to a 240 dollar cpu. And the old stuff is also sold out so there is no way I can justify upgrading right no... I am just pissed that after the gpu crap, this crap exists (and you won't even gain performance from it= ddr5, wifi6, pcie5, speaking as 'most user')
