I have just pre-ordered an i9 11900K.

I want to make sure I get a motherboard that will have enough PCIe slots and at the right speeds. The board also needs to have at least 8 USB ports. 4 of those USB ports need to be USB 3.

Can somebody please recommend an Asus or Gigabyte Z590 motherboard for about £300 ($415) - £400 ($556).

This is going to be my build.

CPU - i9-11900K

Sound card - Asus Essence STX II 7.1 (this sound card has a motherboard and daughterboard and needs 2 PCIe slots)

Graphics card - RTX 3080

SSD - PCIe 4.0 NVMe - WD Black SN850 2TB M.2

Memory - Crucial Ballistix MAX 2 x 16GB 4000MHz.

I mean, you've already narrowed it down to about 10 motherboards anyway.

Just pick whichever of these has the features you need and is most appealing to you(either price or aesthetics);

Personally, I'd probably go with a Strix but I've not actually looked at any reviews/breakdowns of Z590 motherboards so I can't speak on quality unfortunately.
