Dont, unless you wanna stream consoles and even that you should be able to run 1 PC as is.

Overall pretty good list compiled here, i would go for a 12TB seagate unit instead, but i know some are gonna be super sketched about it. For the board, thats too overkill imo, stick to bang for the buck B550's like B550-F or B550 Aorus Elite. And for cpu between the 2, considering youre going to wait for a 3090 might as well jump for 5950x.
