Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.
CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

Sorry if this has been flogged to death, but I figure it’s good to keep the discussion up-to-date!

I’ve recently picked up a 14700k and I’m wondering which motherboards are the way to go, or rather, which ones to avoid. Eyeing off the Z790 chipset.

Budget is $500 AUD, but would prefer not to spend any more than I have to.

Thanks in advance.

I picked up the Asus Rog Z690 hero for my I7-14700k
Mainly because it was on sale and a lot cheaper than the Z790 counterpart.

And i'm running with G.Skill Ripjaws S5 6400mhz CL32 32gb kit
