Hello,
I know there are multiple similar threads on the internet, and I must have read them all. However, I still cannot get a definite grip on what are the exact differences between these boards.
I want a board that will be put into a Meshify C case together with i9-9900k, 4x8Gb and RTX 2080 Ti eventually. Storage wise I'm going for 1x 970 PRO + 2x 970 EVOs. I'm not gonna do any crazy overclocking, nor watercooling, nor any RGB stuff, nothing fancy. I just want a MB which is best of the best regarding voltage regulation, component quality etc. My last built PC is still running 24/7 after 9 years, so I want this to be the same.
I don't care about the additional LAN chipset in Extreme/Formula, I don't have that speed cabling in the house.
What I also want is as many FAN headers as possible, which would also be PWM so that I can configure and monitor my case airflow the way I want.
From what I gather, only Extreme has DIMM.2 card which enables more than 2 nvme cards? It seems to also be the only one having fan extension card.
And here is where my understanding ends. The comparison at the ASUS site does not detail component differences, VRM phase count etc.
Can someone please help me pick a MB?
Thanks.
