A620 VS B650, is the B650 worth the 60 euro difference?

In my region you can buy an Asrock A620M-HDV/M.2+ for €100 (even less for the non plus version), while the cheapest B650 are around €150/160.

HU adviced against the board for just a 20 dollars difference (I imagine Australian dollars), but for me the difference is 60 euros, it's starting to get noticeable. Since the board can run a 7800X3D at full speed, I don't think that a PC exclusively for gaming needs anything fancier than that. Do you agree?

Well, do NOT get the non + version. The vrm really sucks. The chipset difference can be found here:

If you dont overclock - don't waste your money on more expensive chipsets.
