This video answers the questions regarding the differences between the new AM5-based motherboards. A deep-dive on the differences between X670E, X670, B650E, and B650. I've done a few livestreams covering this topic already but I thought I'd make a separate video to clear up all the confusion I've noticed reading posts on reddit and other outlets.
