Gigabyte A520M DS3H

Excellent value for money: does the job, very nice bio interface

With a Ryzen 7 5700G, I've got a competitive dev configuration, with a dual QHD display (I've heard that I could even add a third FHD display, but I'm not sure...).
I like the easy-to-understand bios interface and the management of fan speeds according to heat speed (in PWM or voltage for the old 3-pin fans in my case...). It took me a while to work out how to acknowledge the open case alarm and I couldn't find a way of masking it (so I plugged my open case switch into it...).
The lack of USB-C ports is regrettable, but at this price you can't be picky. I added a small USB 3.2 controller card on a PCI slot and a 3.5" bar with 4 ports on the front of the case...
