I'm planning to build a PC with an Nvidia 2060 Super and an Intel Core i5-12600KF. I wanted to know if that's a good combination or if there are better options out there. Additionally, I'm on the lookout for a solid motherboard to pair with this setup. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!

Just a heads up, if you're mostly playing esports titles at low graphics settings and aiming for high fps, the 2060 should suffice. However, in anything that's heavier, it might start to hold you back. Keep that in mind for your gaming experience!
What price are you looking at for the 2060? If you're considering used options, I've seen some 2070s going for around $100 and 2080s for about $200 on eBay. It could be worth checking those out! If you already have the 2060, that’s cool too – I had a spare from an old build.
Honestly, that setup should work okay for most tasks. But if you can manage to get a better GPU, like a used 30 series card, that would really boost your performance. If you're sticking with the 2060 Super, you're still in a decent spot, especially for gaming at moderate settings.
