I'm really into motherboards with plenty of ports, and the X570 Steel Legend has everything I love: all USB 3+ ports on the back, 8 SATA ports, and 2 M.2 slots that can be used together, along with 2 PCIe x16 slots and 3 PCIe x1 slots. It's honestly my dream board! I'm thinking about upgrading to an LGA1851 CPU in the next few years. Are there any ATX motherboards that could match the features of the X570 Steel Legend? I've looked at the Asus TUF GAMING Z890-PLUS, but I'm open to hearing other recommendations!

Just a heads up, the current gen CPUs for the LGA1851 socket might be the last from Intel. So, you'll want to check what's available when you're ready to upgrade—it could be all new stuff by then!
Thanks for the heads up! I had that feeling it might change, especially since I'm not planning to upgrade for another few years.
