while there are quite a few tempting deals, i imagine there are also plenty others like me that overspent during the pandemic on a build and would like to get my money's worth out of it. upgrading when it's not absolutely necessary just feels like giving the greedy companies more money and enabling their price gouging.
100% recommend
make sure to update motherboard bios as soon as you can on any vendor board
This is now fixed by applying a CPU patch.

if you are staying within specs, you are fine anyway.

Asus makes tons of boards. Which one do you have?
Install the lone available beta bios and update whenever a new one is available and necessary. Keep using expo but monitor voltages with hwinfo to make sure it is no more than 1.3(4) volts. Check cpu and mobo around the six months mark for degradation (if you feel like it), then again right before the mobo warranty is up, which I think it's one year. Warranty if you discover damages to either or both cpu and mobo. If this becomes a widespread problem for Asus sometime later, you will have more recourse. Don't waste more money buying a different brand AMD motherboard or switching to Intel.
