[SOLVED] Help me pick a Z490 MB

[Big Louie]

I'm looking for a Z490 MB no more then $400. I don't know which one to get I keep reading a lot of bad reviews.

Asus MB seem to have a ethernet port problem
Asrock the VRM coil I'm hearing are loud.
MSI they don't last
Adrus are arriving DOA
So I'm torn on which board to get.

I'd like to throw in a 10700K w 32gb of DDR 4000 and a 3080 card.

I'm leaning towards the Asrock Z490 Taichi but like I said see above.

So I'd like to hear if you have any of these boards or what you suggest?

MSI don't last?

What country are you shopping in? $400 for a mobo is quite robust. What features are you needing that require something that expensive?

+1 on the MSI Tomahawk. No issues with it and very cost effective
