This will be used as a home server and for light gaming. Do you see any issues in the current configuration ?? Is it fine if I swap the motherboard for an Asrock Taichi X570 or an MSI gaming pro carbon X570 wifi. Are there any known issues with those ?? I also plan to run dual 4k monitors for coding and gaming at 1440p. will the graphics card support those ?? I also plan on getting a senheiser HD 6xx. Is the AMP on the motherboard enough to power those or do I need a separate amp

I will be running proxmox as the operating system and will use linux and windows as virtual machines. It will be used for malware analysis and penetration testing. apart from this games like Metro Exodus should be able to run
