What are your recommendations for a z790 micro atx motherboard? Or would you recommend going with a z690?
I'm parting out a new system. Right now I think it is going into a O11D-Mini with a water cooling loop for the CPU and GPU. The case is for a limited space area under a sloped ceiling.
I intend to use a 12900k processor but wouldn't mind going to a 13900k w 128 gigs of ram if I can.
This will be a daily use computer. It's most intensive task will be rendering 1440p video with Rush or Premiere. There will be some gaming, STO, Diablo, COH, I might try BF2042. I have a ASUS Dual 3070 with a full water plate and a 970 M.2 that will go in the system.
It looks like I need to use an mATX or ITX board so I can place a 360 rad at the top of the case. The ITX boards appear to be limited to 96 gigs of ram.
Boards I've been looking at are the ASUS ROG Strix Z790 ITX and ASUS Prime Z790 mATX.
Any help is appreciated.
This will be a Win11 pro system.
