I've been thinking about assembling my own PC, but I'm not sure which motherboard would work best. Since I don't trust some online forums, I came here because everyone here seems knowledgeable. I need suggestions for a board that fits my setup—AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, a water-cooled 3070, Corsair Vengeance 32GB RAM, and two Samsung NVMe drives. This build will also be watercooled. Thanks Smile

What size are you looking for? Or which case type? Mini-ITX, Micro-ATX, ATX, E-ATX, or Micro-ATX? They’re usually the most popular, so Micro-ATX is often the cheapest. Would you like RGB?

I omitted noting that, but yes, I need RGB options. I’m looking for an ATX motherboard and am okay with waiting longer for the right component. The case I need is a Corsair 7000x, which should fit comfortably on an ATX board.

I would choose the Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite V2. It's an ATX mainboard with VRMs capable of handling 100 A, perfect for powering your 5800X. The S/PDIF (TOSLINK) audio output makes it simple to link a 5.1 or 7.1 AV receiver. Its sleek backside eliminates the need for an I/O cover. It includes two M.2 slots and supports RGB lighting. In Germany, it costs around 138 USD.
