I know the problem, have name ASMEDIA... When amd change the chipset for another brand or make the chipset, I will be able to buy an AMD cpu!

those lanes feeding the GPU and the first m.2 slot are coming from the CPU though

Between AMD, Asus, MSI, and Crucial, I'm going to believe Crucial the most.

I'd be suspicious with the mobo base clock running above spec (It's still 100Mhz for PCIe, right?) because that eeks out a little extra performance to look good on benchmarks.

Since there are currently no consumer-grade graphics cards with a PCIe 5.0 x16 interface, changing in the BIOS of the affected Motherboards the first PCIe Slot configuration to PCIe4 could not solve the problem and leave the first SSD slot working to PCIe 5 ?

From what I understand, the M2 and the first slot are on the same lanes, so maybe setting the slot to PCIe4 could influence also the M2 speed.

Actually, MSI and Crucial promptly investigated and MSI also released a first fix that seems to work for the most part of users.
Only ASUS remained on the starting block, not good at all.

Have they solved the heat issues with 5.0 drives yet?

they have a new turbo jet fan bring temperature to normal conditions

Great, more noise to tolerate...
