Good CPU MOBO bundle for RX 6900 XT
SAM is just AMD's branding of Resizable Bar, which is a universal technology, Intel CPUs could also use it.
Given the choices, I would go with 12400F and MSI PRO B660M-A, the board is one of the best value B660 board and a great performer. Although 12400F could really be used any cheap B660 board, so that is up to you.
If you don't plan to upgrade the CPU to higher powered ones, any B660 board would do, but if you, I'd suggest the MSI PRO.
Please note that 12400/5700X will bottleneck your 6900 XT in some games, especially CPU intensive ones such as CP2077 and Spider-man Remastered.
Old cpu coolers would have to be compatible with the new socket mount, so check around if there are mounting adapters for your cooler, I'd suggest to just use the stock one.
Sound card is useless nowadays, IDK what would you need it for.
