I have a i9 9900k in a b360-f MOBO and looking to get a z390 but i am conflicted on wich to get and i see that they are getting harder and harder to get a hold on. Most likely overcloking will not happen but you never know in the future. I need 2 x m.2 slots and RGB 4 pin header for about 200$ ish pluss minus. Been looking at Aorus elite, TUF pro gaming and MSI gamin pro carbon to name a few. Any suggestion and and tips are much welcome

Aorus Pro has more robust VRM than the Gaming X. I have the Gaming SLI, which has the same VRM as the Gaming X, and it is working just fine with my i9-9900k without any overclock. I think if you're intending to overclock more than a little, and the difference in price isn't too much, you may want to spend extra cash on the Aorus Pro. Just my opinion.

Wifi is not needed. Only need space for 1 GPU, 2 x m.2 and i dont know if you can get a Z390 with less then 4 ram slots but i only need 2 as i dont see any point for me to have more then 32gb even if they support from 64gb and up. I shop in Scandinavian and prices and taxes cant compare to the us market wich why i say 200$ish.

Be careful with Gigabyte boards if you have any interest in using the utilities that come with whatever board you buy. I have Auros X-470 Gaming Ultra and several of the utilities just don't work, or don't work as intended, and their forums/supp are garbage. Just something to consider.
