Budget/Country, what do you need the PC for?

Did you buy anything yet?

Why do you have a sound card?

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

The GIGABYTE Z370 AORUS Gaming 5  or 7 are pretty nice ones, if you have the money to spend.

They both have triple m.2 slots, if you ever want to add another ssd

So, it looks like you have a lot of headroom with your budget. If you want to spend the money, you could get a Maximus board like the ASUS ROG Maximus X Formula or ASUS ROG Maximus X Hero. They are great for overclocking.

The Maximus X Formula also has dual m.2 slots, so you can expand.

Does the hero's M.2 slots share bandwith with its Sata 6GBPS slots
