Optimus Prime's post in Mobo suggestions was marked as the answer@NicoS7 thank you for the reply. Couldn’t sleep that night and ended up doing more research. I needed up with Gigabyte Z790 D DDR 4. It was half the price of the latest and greatest boards, allowed me to use 14th gen processors, and recycle my existing RAM. I decided to leave the latest and greatest spending for my upcoming Proxmox build, otherwise this would have been the perfect board for me. Thank you for the referral.

Optimus Prime's post in Starting from scratch - what's the best layout? Is there an ideal, up to date, build guide? was marked as the answerHi @Frank1940 , thanks for the feedback
I intend to use this machine as my home NAS, share files externally with myself and a few others. I’ll end up hosting a few containers like HA and Immrich. I don’t intend fto use the machine to rip and converts files, it’s I’ll likely stream one occasion. I’ll also likely install a windows VM just to have it available, and I’ll occasionally install other VMs, buy only to play with, nothing mission critical.
I’m can start with a breakout card, but i only have one slot on the existing mobo, which then i won’t later beable to use a 10GB nic.
ECC…I think I’m changing my mind…but as it’s becoming an option for consumer level DDR5, I’m thinking why not explore it for a system ill run the next 10 years
Not really interested in buying a gpu…but i play with Blue Iris, so the intel integrated Quicksync is a requirement.
