I'm finally pulling the trigger on a Ryzen 7 9850X3D build and need a solid X870E board to match. I'm looking for something with top-tier VRMs for stable PBO and at least two PCIe 5.0 M.2 slots for future-proofing. Budget isn't a huge issue, but I value reliability. Which X870E boards are actually worth the premium right now?

idk but i'd suggest Gigabyte X870E AORUS MASTER over ASUS ROG Crosshair X870E Hero or MSI MPG X870E Carbon WiFi. Asus was not as good as expected, so Gigabyte feels way safer, tbh.
