I'm considering whether to go with the ASRock B850M Steel Legend or the AORUS B850M Ice for my 7800X3D setup. I'm leaning towards the Steel Legend but I'm worried it might cause issues with the CPU. Has anyone experienced problems with the ASRock Steel Legend recently, or is it actually reliable?

Definitely avoid ASRock unless you want to risk frying your CPU. The failure rate is alarmingly high, and it feels like there’s a design flaw with their AM5 boards overall. I'd say play it safe and choose something else!
I'd skip the ASRock option if I were you. There's a lot of chatter about potential issues with X3D processors that make me nervous about reliability.
