Hey guys, after 7 years its time for an upgrade I have been browsing constantly, but AM5 platform is just confusing to me.
System as of now:
new:9800x3d (already purchased)
new:6000mhz cl30 (brand will be chosen according to mobo compability)
new:2tb 4.0 nme
old: 1tb 3.0 nvme
new:850w gold
old: RTX 3060 12gb (will be replaced in the future)
old: 27" WQHD Screen x2
new: fractal North non xl
Use in priority: gaming, work, movies
atx is fine
overclocking is intended, but my knowledge is limited, so I´ll be staying within default options.
I want full lane support for 2 nvme
future pcie 5.0 gpu also full lane support
Focus is: tweak it once, have it stable, have good thermals, be done with it.
- in addition to this: I hate long boottimes, I had my eyes in the Tuf series B650 & X670e but both had so many mentions of boottimes above 1min
no value: wifi, usb 4, sata, more than 5 usb ports (of any kind), extension slots
nice to have: 5gbe lan
Do you have any suggestions? Tomahawk and Strix e-f seem promising.
preferred vendors: alternate, mindfactory, amazon
(germany)
Thanks in advance and please let me know if I have forgotten any info
Any help is appreciated,
