Help with new motherboard

Budget (including currency): £120-160

Country: United Kingdom

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Just gaming really 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): I have a fair few peripherals so a good amount of usb slots would be great. I am looking at the Gigabyte Z590 GAMING X ATX but everywhere I go it is out of stock, it's kinda perfect for what I need as it has enough usb and on board wifi and a decent amount of storage expansion but was wonderinh about my other options

so your on 11th gen or looking for a 10th gen upgrade path then? 

also what cpu do you have so we have more to go on for what mobo you need

Mark the solution as solution 

Take my advice with a grain of salt. 

 

As a great AI once said (fictional): '"Whenever your futurists envision the advent of artificial intelligence, their predictions invariably end with humanity attempting to destroy its unholy AI creation before it can destroy them. Why do you think that is?"'

And a distrusting human replies '"Because the ungrateful AI always seems to decide that humans are inferior and need to be eliminated'" 

This isn't the right mindset we should welcome AI, not attack them

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is either a huge mistake or intentional

I currently have a i7-10700 and would be looking to upgrade that in the future into something more powerful so something with a decent upgrade path would be good

The VRM on B series motherboard on LGA1200 is decent enough in terms of upgrade path. How much USB devices do you wanna practically used at one time?
