I'm looking to build a system with a Ryzen 7 9800X3D, and I need recommendations for the best motherboard to pair it with. I've also got an RTX 4060 and 32GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR5 RAM. Any suggestions?

Here are a few motherboards that would work great with your setup! They have multiple M.2 slots, support for Wi-Fi 7, fast Ethernet, and PCIe 5.0 compatibility. Check this link for a good selection: https://pcpartpicker.com/products/motherboard/#s=41. You'll find full ATX options here!
I'd recommend the MSI B850 TOMAHAWK MAX WiFi. It's affordable, packed with features, and should serve your needs well. Plus, it's a reliable board!
Just a heads up, some Asrock and Asus boards have reportedly had issues with the Ryzen 7 9800X3D. I prefer Gigabyte boards myself; they've been solid for me without issues. B650 boards are cheaper and should work, but if you want more features, consider going for a B870.
Pairing a 4060 with a Ryzen 7 9800X3D might not be the best move. You could save some cash by going for a Ryzen 7600X or 9600X and use the leftover for a better GPU. At 1080p gaming, the difference between a 7600X and 9800X3D is pretty minor, and you might want to reconsider based on your needs.
I've got my Ryzen 7 9800X3D on an Asus TUF B650E Gaming Wi-Fi board, and it's working great. If budget isn't a concern, look into the X870 boards for more modern features.
