Which Motherboard Should I Choose: MSI PRO B650M-B or Asus Prime B650M-R?

Hey everyone! I'm currently using an MSI PRO H610M-E motherboard with an Intel i5 12400F, but I'm planning to upgrade to a Ryzen 7 7800x3D soon. I'm considering getting the B650M-B, but I'm also looking at the Asus Prime B650M-R since there's almost no price difference and it comes with an extra M.2 slot. I'm just not sure if there might be any issues with internal ports between the two. Any advice would be appreciated!

Neither of these motherboards is particularly stellar, but if I had to choose, I would recommend the Asus option. It tends to have better overall reliability and features for the price. Just keep in mind, there are better boards out there if you can stretch your budget a bit.
