Budget or Business? Comparing the Gigabyte B550 ITX and Asus B550 ITX Motherboards

Let's take a look at two B550 ITX boards- the Gigabyte B550 ITX and the Asus B550 ITX. The Ryzen 7 5800X gives us an idea of the performance differences between the two boards, but in my opinion, differences beyond CPU performance are a bit more meaningful for SFF builders. Which one of these is best for your Mini ITX build?
