That said, this board is overkill for 99% of the people out there, and the price is on the higher end even on a deal. For general gaming or productivity there are X670e or even B650e boards for $100-150 less that most people could run and never know a difference.

MSI X870E Godlike has up to 7 with an expansion card, but that board looks like a paper launch? (Z890 Godlike too)

Regardless, X870E boards, X670E, and B650E boards have the same usable CPU PCIe lanes, while the X670e and x870e have 20x4.0 chipset PCIe lanes to the B650e's 12X4.0. Again, 90% of users could save the $100-150 and never know the difference. Literally the only major difference in the chipset from X670e to X870e is the x870e is guaranteed to have 4.0 USB support, while that is optional on the x670e.

I personally like some of the ASRock stuff, but X670e prices are so close to a lot of the X870e stuff at this point, I'm not sure I'd still go that route. Pretty much any X670e board should be a bit over-engineered and good to go though. I really liked the ASRock Steel Legend in some of the builds I've done, but the price on that one is essentially the same as this deal now so I couldn't recommend it.
