>>Asus ProArt X570 Creator WiFi, Discontinue?<<
it sure looks that way. I called tech support and was told that the board is discontinued. So now I must find something equivalent. I would prefer Asus. This is the list of items I planned on using. I'm now looking for advice.
Bold = Must Have
AMD Ryzen 5900X (Windows 11 Pro 64 bit)
• E-ATX Form Factor
• AMD X570 Chipset
• AM4 Socket
• 4 x Dual-Channel DDR4
• 6 x SATA, 2 x M.2, 2 x DIMM.2
• 2 x PCIe 4.0 x16, 1 x PCIe 3.0 x1 Slot
Thunderbolt 4, USB 3.2 Gen 2, Gen 2x2
• Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax), Bluetooth 5.2
• 1 x 2.5Gb Ethernet, 1 x 10Gb Ethernet
Thanks for the help.

I did. But Asus has me concerned since I have found another board that appears discontinued. That would be the ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Extreme AM4 E-ATX Gaming Motherboard. I don't know if it's problems or end of life. They are both AMD types. And the price is much lower so I might be missing something needed. I guess I'm a bit gun shy after being set on the X570. The number B550 implies to me it's not as fast as the X570. I want to use the AMD RYZEN™ 9 5950X Processor. Is the B550 an older chipset?
