Considering upgrading my gaming rig with the following bundle ->

I have a GeForce RTX 3070 which I will keep and I am running Linux Mint 21.2. Any thoughts on compatibility? Any one running one of these ASUS B650-E TUF Gaming motherboards under Linux? Mint?

Edit: Thanks for all the great advice. It seems like I should spend just a few more dollars to get the Gigabyte B650 Gaming X AX v2:

Honestly I could never recommend an Asus board. They've done some really shitty things as a company recently, but besides that, I've had like 3 of their boards to go bad in weird ways. I'll never buy one again.
