Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and I'm Italian so excuse my English in advance .. as the title suggests I am looking for a motherboard and ram to match my future i7 9700 (not k) not k because I have no intention to do oc, which I used to play with a future 2060. I wanted to know if I can save some money for the motherboard and on the ram since intel does not need so many mhz. Could you recommend me a motherboard with a max of € 120 and a ram with a max of € 80? 
Thank you

If you’re worried about money, get an R5 3600 and the motherboard/memory.

 

youll save a significant amount of money

it looks like there was supposed to be more to this, or are you just asking for part suggestions?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

You're best off getting the fastest RAM you can for the money. It still affects performance, regardless of it's Intel or AMD.

For motherboard, just get the one with the features you need. Since you're not overclocking there's not really a "wrong" motherboard to pick. Just stick to the big brands.
