Hello all,
RIG:
EVGA Micro Micro ATX LGA2011-3 Motherboard
Intel Core i7-5820K 3.3 GHz 6-Core Processor
Corsair H100i 77 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
MSI RTX 2070 SUPER VENTUS OC
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-2400 Memory
Corsair 750i W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
Assorted SSDs
I won't bore you with the details, but after weeks of trial-and-error, I've come to the conclusion by mobo has passed on. This was my first pc build back in 2015 and I'm still, very much, a novice. I thought I'd just go pick up another mobo but, after searching Newegg, Amazon, and other online retailers, an Intel LGA 2011-v3 chipset mobo seems hard to come by in both matx or atx sizes.
Am I not searching in the right places? I thought the i7-5820K was still a good cpu for today, no? Should I just upgrade to a new CPU, along with a new mobo? It would be nice to stay in the micro atx range so I don't have to buy a new case too.
I mostly use my computer for MMORPGs, strategic games (Civ 5, etc), and light video editing, so I don't think I need anything crazy overpowered.
Again, I'm a novice so forgive me if I'm missing something obvious here.
Thanks in advance for any insight you could provide!
