I'm planning to build my very first PC and I'm considering a setup with a 9800X3D and 5080 graphics card. I'm specifically looking for an AM5 compatible motherboard but I'm a bit overwhelmed with choices. My goal is to achieve high frame rates at 1440p while streaming, ideally 100+ frames. I enjoy playing games like Grayzone Warfare, Battlefield, and Tarkov. Would love any tips, and if anyone has similar builds, feel free to share!

I'd steer clear of A-series chipsets. Go for ones that support PCIe 5.0 like B650E, X670E, or B850. Always check for at least 4 DIMM slots and Wi-Fi 6 compatibility if that's something you need. You can explore these options: Full-sized ATX, microATX, or miniITX boards.
Some great motherboard choices are the ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E Hero, the Gigabyte X670E AORUS Master, or the ASUS ROG Strix B650E-E if you're looking to save a bit. I've got the Strix B650E-E and it's been solid.
