You have a sense of "forum ownership" though you're a member just like me. I highly suggest you stop trolling other member's posts. Recommendations are fine but being an "absolutist" does not impress anyone. This is my final post in this topic.

He asked for a mothboard recommendation. Depending on his budget giving the least expensive brand name motherboard choices is a starting point. However he decides to cushion and protect his cases is already planned in his mind. You really should read the entire OP before commenting.

I just finished my build with two 2TB Kingston M.2 PCie 4 SSD. Here is the transfer rate of 200 GB of the same file type from C:drive to D:drive.

I agree with (punkncat) on this one.

My M.2 is on the cheap side. A 2TB -KINGSTON SNV2S2000G. It works good enough for me. Hopefully it will last a few years or even longer to be used in my next build. My backup M.2 is plugged into a 3.2 USB Port. I purchased an enclosure for it. Enclosure came with both cables: A/C and C/C...

Make sure your Power Supply is at least 200 Watts above the card recommendation.

Smart choice! I have been using NVIDIA chip cards since the GTX 480, a long time ago in tech years. Having built three machines since then I have used the GTX 970, GTX 1070 and my build from 2018 is now rocking the RTX 3070 Ti FTW3 with a power supply of 850 Watts. My personal view on 3070...

Nothing is 100% certain except for death and taxes. Are you sure it's a Surge Protector or just a multiple plug-in device for several components. A Surge Protector will have an ON/OFF button to kill electricity flowing from it when you are working on a device. It will also have a Master Button...
