Dude, you already have like a dozen threads asking about TRX40 motherboards/builds...
You can't seem to explain what you'd do with all those M.2 slots/PCIe slots/Thunderbolt 3, so how are we supposed to determine whether they're important or worth the money for you?
As far as I can tell, any of those boards would serve you as well as the other.
Part if it is that it seems strange that the custom workstation computers only seem to include ASUS boards when you have ASroc, Gigbyte and MSi boards looking very good on comparsion charts like the ones on the Scan uk website, especially as they seem to show prices inbetween the AUS strix and Zeneth extreme that seem to offer more or better features for lower prices.and not just goign on about games but content creation like the Gigabyte Designare, MIS and ASroc creator boards.
Plus heard a lot about doublign up GPUs
I get told that I would need a Operating system, project, scratch disk and storage drives/
Most of the boards have only 3 M2 slots. looked like it wouldbe worth it to get or at lease have the capacity to expand later down the line.
Also have had exteenal hard drives fail so have a strong interest in Raid 1.
Have also been told that Thunderbolt is somethgi to look for as connects at high speed, way above others and can daisy chain high end drives , gps and other stuff.
I only get one shot at this and £4000 is pretty close to my entire savings for 2 years and very much need to do somethgin to improve my life as 46 , creative but been stuck in a victious circle of film extra and dumbed down promo agency work and need a means to get a career on own as no being accepted for things like internships due to age. Have done a industrial design degree, got a 3d printer lookign at art daprtment , props effects product design and maybe viusual effects and editing and tryign to work out whats besty.
The fact you are doing the opposite of sellign all this indicates its not as needed as I thoguht.
Also it seems to make a lot of sense that if you are goign to have 4 full lenght expansio slots it makes sense to have them all full speed not a few half or a quater.
Hence all the questions. Need to be certain makign the right decsion... i can add more ram later but pretty stuck with a motherboard and learned thrpough problems with a 3d printer not to simply look at whihc one has the most features but also things like relaibility and build quality etc.
But as will be learning with mucvh of the software dont yet know whats needed.
Thought I may need a sound card for the podcasting/audio in, maybe later some sort of video caputre card as they appear in editing configurators, the M2 add on card, maybe if not on the board later 10g net but dont know
Cutting and pasting this but this is what I was lookign to do with it.
