Looking to buy a new system

I’ve been reading a ton of issues with 11th gen and ASUS 500 series specifically.

There’s a big thread about it on LTT basically where it’s riddled with stability issues and C states.

I also have been troubleshooting a non working Ethernet on an ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F with a friend with no resolution. Seems a common issue upon searching.

And also reading about USB dropouts on AMD boards…seemingly also an ASUS issue.

Might just be ASUS kind of sucks in general. But yeah it to me has always been more of a motherboard issue vs a CPU issue.

By virtue of being old as rocks, Intel 6-10th gen basically behaves the same so the motherboard vendors have had about 5+ years to figure it out.

I was mostly kidding about being offended. Mostly.
