Excellent features for an MATX board. It has 2 FULL M.2 slots, 1 at pci-e 4.0 x 4 and the other at pci-e 3.0 x 4, whereas some MATX boards of the same calibur cuts one of the M.2 slots down if you use an SATA port or some nonsense. Of note, this wifi version takes away 2 pci-e lanes from the 3.0 x 4 m.2 slot, so you will only have a 3.0 x 2 m.2 slot if you get this wifi version. I got the version without wifi, as I wanted a full 3.0 x 4 m.2 slot along with my full 4.0 x 4 m.2 slot to one day do RAID0 on my M.2 drives. The version without Wifi is easily found for a similar price. I picked up 2 about several months ago. Price is the same. No change. So not really a deal. But nonetheless, a very good B550 board. I plan to throw a Ryzen 5600x or the 5600 on it when it comes out.

Could you please point to the source of this info?
The only limitation I was able to find was "The PCIEX16_2 slot will downgrade from x4 to x2 mode if the PCIEX1 slot is used."
Couldn't find anything regarding limitation on the m.2 slot.
I've recommended this board on a few occasions, and since their ssd was only 3x4, I told them to put it in the second m.2 slot to utilize included heatsink.
