Looks like there wont be new gpus coming until next year. Personally Im waiting to see what the custom boards will be like for VEGA 56. I'm tempted of replacing my 480 Red Devil to a Vega Red Devil.

True, nothing beats true horsepower. Buy a single GPU that has enough performance and save urself troubles :D

Z97 Anniversary was a good reliable board to me back then.

You dont need a Z270 motherboard for a non K CPU, save some money. Any of these will do it, pretty stable boards, just see whatever features and or looks you like the best. https://pcpartpicker.com/products/compare/Kjs8TW,FzGj4D,RQM323,bQX2FT/

Generally if you want overclock, asrock does better.. great oc boards I had with them these past few years.

I would advise you not to get a intel PC right now, it looks like they are changing sockets once again soon, which means what you might buy now, might not have upgrade path in the future. AM4 is pretty sure to be around for a while and has more cores which means the Ryzen might work better in...

You have the Z270 Pro4, which is almost as cheap as some B250 boards and you can always upgrade your CPU later on to a K.

Go with the suggestions and buy it in PC Diga ;) good shop in Portugal, had few returns and they solved my problems super fast.
