You've got a Ryzen 9000 chip in hand and you need a board that won't bottleneck it at the memory controller or the GPU slot. The MSI B850 GAMING PLUS WIFI runs DDR5 at 8200+ MT/s with overclocking, gives you a dedicated PCIe 5.0 x16 lane for your graphics card, and drops Wi-Fi 7 with Bluetooth 5.4 into the build so you're not running Ethernet to every desk.
Three M.2 slots (one at Gen 5 x4, two at Gen 4) plus four SATA 6Gbps ports cover your storage without a single adapter cable. DisplayPort 1.2 HBR pushes 4K at 60Hz for processors with integrated graphics. Realtek 5Gbps LAN keeps the wired connection solid when you need it.
8-channel (7.1) HD Audio with Audio Boost handles the desk setup without a separate sound card.
