I'm searching for a motherboard that can accommodate this RAM in Expo mode. It's the G.SKILL Flare X5 64GB DDR5 Desktop Kit, two 32GB modules. The specs are 6000MT/s, CL36, 1.35V, with various slots and ports. You mentioned using an ASUS TUF GAMING B850-PLUS WIFI ATX board, which supports AM5 and has multiple M.2 slots. Looking for alternatives that might work better with this RAM, especially considering the CPU you have (Ryzen 7 9800X3D). Let me know if you'd like recommendations for other boards that fit these requirements.

We chose an Asrock PG lightning with her 7800x3d processor. The 2x16GB RAM kit seems to have worked, though I’m not entirely sure. It might have taken a couple attempts to get it running smoothly at the EXPO settings. I only mention two tries because I revisited the BIOS setup more than once during installation.

it seems like a great board, probably I should have said that too. i also need something that can handle many USB devices, like type c and usb a.

For a huge number of Type C ports, you can use an x4 add-in card. 11 Type A is quite sufficient, and an x4 Gen 4 chip can handle roughly eight 10gbps ports at maximum speed.

I've been checking them for about an hour, but I'm still unsure how to check if they're suitable for my RAM.

CPU compatibility plays a bigger role than the motherboard itself.
