Hi folks,
These are my observations on the B550i Aorus Pro AX mini-itx board with a 5000x CPU running latest stable Linux 5.11.x kernels.
#1:
F12 final BIOS - System is able to suspend and wake up from ACPI S3 sleep.
None of the F13 beta BIOS let the system go to sleep. The system gets immediately woken up.
#2:
Reverting to F12 BIOS, after every wake up from sleep, USB stutter in mouse is very visible. Remove and plug back devices, the stutter goes away
Latest F13i BIOS: Cannot validate this as the system refuses to go to sleep.
#3:
F12 BIOS: Bluetooth disappears after sleep/wake up. Powering down system and keeping power button pressed (to supposedly discharge capacitors!) and then powering on system restores bluetooth.
In short, the performance around bluetooth and usb peripherals has been very flaky as many here have observed. And migration to F13* BIOS is blocked until the system can sleep. This fantastic CPU has been kneecapped by sub par chipset/AGESA/vendor implementation.
Hope there is some resolution soon enough.

Its great to read to the mostly positive feedback on each Beta BIOS but I'm still OK with my original work-arounds with F12 on the B550i while waiting for a non Beta release
- use only one of the front USB, one 3.2 USB, not all rear USB at the same time - no USB drops or stutters that way
- use a RTL8671B USB BT dongle - no BT failures
- use Windows default 10.39 2.5Gb LAN driver with settings disabled in device manager - no LAN drops
- use ECO mode to cap multi-core power limit - keeps 5800x temps in check without errors

For maybe the dozen of us that bought an Z590 Aorus Ultra be careful with bios F4D. Here are a couple of things I found.
1. Constant changes to bios with eventually make your LAN disappear. This can be brought back with either a complete shutdown, power unplugged, or doing something that requires the bios to reboot such as memory changes.
2. After several hours of use, you may see spikes in VID/vcore/vr vout north of 1.5V! Once this happens, it also borks your sensors so it that restarting making hwinfo, hw monitor, etc, will take several minutes to load. It may also crash your computer if you try to restart after the sensors are messed. Could be a bug introduced to the sensors but the voltage spikes are too consistent to ignore. If you get this, just use F3 and save your CPU.
I also have issues with bios being skipped on initial boot (works on restart) but I had that happened on another gigabyte board too so maybe there is another reason for it.
I am using F3 now. Memory latency is worse and it will instafail in things like prime95 and linpackextreme (really thought my CPU was a lemon until it worked flawlessly on F4D) but at least its stable for everything else.

However, the latest Microsoft Windows 10 Update KB5003173, seems to have brought some USB issues back.
I'm waiting for AGESA 1.2.0.3 before I update the firmware.

My mouse went "dead" several times yesterday evening and earlier this morning, and I had to disconnect and reconnect the mouse for it to start working in each scenario. I had this issue with Gigabyte BIOS's with AGESA versions prior to 1.2.0.1 Patch A.
Anyone having similar experiences after installing this latest Windows 10 update? If this continues, I'll probably uninstall the update.
As an update, I continued having USB issues with mouse disconnects. I uninstalled the latest Windows 10 Update KB5003173 and now all mouse USB issues are gone.
BIOS I am on is F13i for the B550i Aorus Pro AX. Just an FYI if you install this latest Windows 10 Update. Something within the update doesn't work with the USB ports. I had no USB issues on F13h or F13i prior to installing that update.

I have had this motherboard about four weeks and generally very pleased with it. Currently on F13h, I get occasional USB problems - my UPS disconnects but not often enough to become irritating yet. I do regularly lose Bluetooth, however, and that is a bit more annoying. I've got KB5003173 installed and haven't noticed any difference.
I'm waiting for AGESA 1.2.0.3 before I update the firmware.

me too like others with bios f13h and f13i I had no more problems with BT
