Should I buy it?

ASUS Prime B860-Plus WiFi

CONSIDER

Great choice if these matter:

Mainstream desktop builds
Anyone filling several expansion slots
Putting the budget into the processor instead

Watch out for:

Only two M.2 slots, which is narrow beside five expansion slots
Networking is held to a single 2.5G Ethernet controller

Regret riskLOWlimited data

Main risks

Only two M.2 slots, which is narrow beside five expansion slots
Networking is held to a single 2.5G Ethernet controller
Wireless is Wi-Fi 6E, which is not the newest version of the standard

The risk level is computed from the release date and verified weaknesses. The confidence score appears only once enough owner reports exist.
