Bit of digging and Google, and I found the short answer:

  • So I guess it's more features and PCIe 5.0

AMD tiers their motherboards like this:

  1. X670E
  2. X670
  3. B650E
  4. B650

"E" is meant to represent guaranteed PCIE 5.0 support for both M.2 and PCIE 5.0 x16, however manufactures can add it to non E boards. Plenty of B650 boards with a Gen 5 M.2 slot.

 

Gen 5 SSD's are a bit too ahead of the game, not that many people need massive sequential speeds and no Gen 5 GPU's exist just yet, so not too much to worry about.

Honestly I can't foresee *anyone* needing PCIe5 SSD speeds in the next 5+ years. The spec seems to exist primarily for hyperscale data centers
