Hello all,
I'm needing some advice, as the title says which motherboard & Cpu are a good choice for a gaming pc build? I know there are a lot of factors to consider in my build but for now all I know is:- modular power supply and a gtx 4080 gpu.
Things like pc case depend on which ones can accommodate the gpu, motherboard and cpu water cooler and I want space for a lot of cooling fans. (and I would like a case that's not your regular rectangular basic case shape.)
 
The budget is not too much of a factor but I don't want to be spending to much, I'll decide on which options are given at the time mate.
 
Big thank you to all that have replied. I want a gtx 4080 because it's modern, upto date and should be more than powerful enough for the games I play (please don't ask which games I play. Lol) All I'm looking for is your advice on a good gaming motherboard and cpu which can run this gpu and is modern and upto date.
Here's some more useless info, would also like to have the ability to run two hard drives.
 
Just to be more accurate I'm old school when it comes to hard drives 2.5 or 3.5 Would like to go for 2.5 ssd's but I heard there not the best, apparently they don't very long.
 
Thanks to Tetras for is build suggestion (Amd Ryzen 9 9050X3D, Asus ROG Crosshair X870E etc etc) good build suggestions would make one or two changes.
As for budget it's about right.
