Who each one is for

it is the wrong buy for anyone wanting factory Wi-Fi or CPU overclocking. It is equally the pick for budget AM5 builders who want a second M.2 slot without a big price jump. It is not the one for buyers who genuinely only need one M.2 slot and want to save the small price difference. it is not the pick for anyone who doesn't need Wi-Fi. The same goes for mainstream Core Ultra 200S Plus builds wanting Wi-Fi 7 without paying ELITE-tier prices. Avoid it for buyers chasing the highest memory overclocking ceiling in the Z890 PLUS series.
