Motherboard recommendation for Ryzen 7 5800X and RX 6800 XT

Budget:
<200 EUR ideal
<250 OK
<300 EUR hard limit

Which motherboard model would you recommend given the other parts I chose, and taking the requirements and prices into consideration:


I will not use more than 1 GPU.
I do not plan to overclock the CPU right away, hence box cooler.
Fast 1 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe for games and crucial software. SATA SSD for boot drive, don't want Windows to reduce the longevity of an NVMe boot drive. SATA SSD or HDD for cold storage (reusing current one).
A single USB-C port is a nice-to-have, unless it's a significant price bump just for the USB-C port. The GPU has the USB-C I plan to use for VR.
I would rather have WiFi/Bluetooth built in than use an expansion card to keep the build cleaner. Bluetooth for gaming controllers and WiFi for an occasional LAN party.

Thank you, a great value board, only thing missing for me is Wi-FI/Bluetooth.

I really don't want to get a separate PCIe card for Wi-Fi/Bluetooth, just because it's my first glass panel build.

What would you recommend if Wi-Fi/Bluetooth was a must?

MSI MPG B550 GAMING CARBON WIFI is my favorite with WI-Fi/Bluetooth

MSI B550 Tomahawk and MSI B550-A PRO are my favorites w/o Wi-Fi/Bluetooth

MSI MPG B550 GAMING CARBON WIFI

MSI MAG B550 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI

 

Has USB-C on rear i/o panel but no header for front panel, 

    Asus TUF GAMING B550-PLUS WIFI II

 

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
