February 18, 20251 yr Micro Center has a decent price on this processor and there aren't too many reasonable motherboards any more. Found two ASRocks in the $150 range and my brain is hurting from overthinking this (you know how it goes). Both DDR4. ASRock Z690 Steel Legend ATX LGA1700 Motherboard ASRock Z790 Pro RS/D4 ATX LGA1700 Motherboard Opinions? Then I'm ordering. Thank you!

I have ASRock/ASRock Rack motherboards in all three of my Unraid servers and my desktop PC. They have all been great.
