Need help upgrading my Motherboard

Budget (including currency): 

Country: 150 euros, Greece

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: light gaming, game development 

Other detailsI plan on getting a 12400f and 16 gigs of ddr5 as part of an upgrade from my old 9100f and 12 gigs of ddr4 in a system I built 5 years ago. I also have a 1650 but I dont plan to upgrade that yet. I don't plan to over clock. I would like to have extra slots for more ram, maybe add another 16 gigs at some point, but I think I could live with 16 gigs if it means I am saving money on the motherboard without any other drawbacks. Thanks in advance for any help:)

Does it need to be micro ATX?

b760m d3hp

b760m ds3h

b760m hdv/m.2

 

If not

prime b760 plus

b760 pro rs

 

The used market is also a strong recommendation, since these are older parts. Most any B660 or B760 with a heat sink would be a good choice for an i5

 

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.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad
