Looking for Z490 Motherboards w/ OCing

Looking to Overclock with 10900k with a motherboard that has 3x or more M.2 ports, 2x x16 GPU as the second GPU might be used for auxiliary monitors, and 2x iGPU like HDMI or DIsplayPort for those auxiliary monitors + USB C port as well. Six monitors in total. I am thinking about Aorus Ultra as it's almost there, but it only has 1x iGPU HDMI. I am hoping to get a stable overclock of 5.2GHz or 5.3GHz if possible with the 10900k. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

$200 to $300 in the states.

now just look for one that has those hdmi and dp ports

I'd do the Maximus XII Hero for overclocking. 

If getting into actually deep serious overclocking, Maximus XII Extreme or Apex.

 

Any other for casual overclocking and gaming would suit fine as long as it has everything you need.

Oh yea, I keep forgetting about pc part picker. That's a really good idea. Thank you! haha! Oh! I just checked your link and you already set it for me, but there is no options for iGPU. Thank, man. Looking through them now.

I thought I included that. My bad. You bring up a good point about every chip being different. It seems like 5.1GHz should be very doable with the 10900k. Maybe even 52x as well, but a stable 53x might not be possible depending on the chip. I have D15 right now and will upgrade to Arctic Liquid Freezer II to try and get those speeds if needed.

 

$200 to $300 if possible. America

I'm only doing casual stable overclocking over here. I was looking at the Hero before, but it's a bit high for me. Would you recommend anything in the ball park of $200 to $300? I forgot to include that before.

Great price and it almost has everything I need. 2x M.2. I might budget on that requirement. Thanks, man.

The gaming edge wifi is solid, though does not have 3 m.2 slots. 

the Vision G is also quite solid and does have 3 m.2 slots and can handle the 10900k easily.

Vision D might be the better choice here. It has 3x m.2, 2x iGPU, and it has 3x GPU which is not sharing the bandwidth between them. I think, Vision G only has 2x M.2.

Oh yea my bad lol it does have 2 apparently. i mean the vision D's vrm is the same as the vision G's (that being a 12 phase with sic651) but does have more features and does have 3 m.2's.
