I'd recommend checking out ASUS' offerings. You'll want either Z390 or B360 with it.

 

What form factor are you going for (ATX? mATX? ITX?)? And what's your budget?

Specs: CPU - Intel i7 8700K @ 5GHz | GPU - Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming | Motherboard - ASUS Strix Z370-G WIFI AC | RAM - XPG Gammix DDR4-3000MHz 32GB (2x16GB) | Main Drive - Samsung 850 Evo 500GB M.2 | Other Drives - 7TB/3 Drives | CPU Cooler - Corsair H100i Pro | Case - Fractal Design Define C Mini TG | Power Supply - EVGA G3 850W

Since you've only got an i5 9400 (locked), so you can't really do any overclocking. Unless you want to upgrade to an unlocked CPU in the future to be able to overclock, you'd be fine with a B360 or H370 board.
