You will be fine with a single AMD card in that motherboard.

yes, they will all work together. its more about whether the slot is pci-e(all modern GPUs are) or not than which brand the gpu is(otherwise nvidia GPUs also won't work).

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Heatsink: Gelid Phantom Black GPU: Palit RTX 3060 Ti Dual RAM: Corsair DDR4 2x8GB 3000Mhz mobo: Asus X570-P case: Fractal Design Define C PSU: Superflower Leadex Gold 650W

I'd recommend getting an RX 480 since it's the successor to the 380. It has a lot better performance and better efficiency.

 

Of course most GPUs will work with your motherboard since it has a PCI-E x16 slot. 

Judge a product on its own merits AND the company that made it.

I would suggest OP learn how PC work first, with a question like this it's obvious he has no clue.
