depends on your needs really
looks like b550 has no wifi/bluetooth
b550 has one pcie4 lane for M2 drives/PCIE, so if you're only using one GPU/one M2 drive you'll be fine with the b550 if you dont want wifi/bluetooth
everything else same same

(based off b550 strix rog as you never gave a model and there's like 8 of them)

pcie is a 'lane' not the physical slots. i.e a gpu socket uses a pcie lane the same as a m2 drive uses an m2 lane

i was actually wrong though i think i just looked again and it's one pcie x4 and one pcie x3 for m2 drives so that's not a factor.

for installing m2 drives you always want to use the m2 drive that's closest to the CPU as that will be the faster oner
