looking to set a work station.. maybe some light gaming.. but want to fit as many hds as possible.? any suggestions?
use pci-e cards to add more sata slots, m-sata over pci-e as well. then use any motherboard you like

i like to use HDD for storage. its alot cheaper to long term stuff like movies

So far i have ZERO itch to upgrade anything. The jump from 4xxx to 5xxx series is so minimal, I might wait until the 6xxx series to drop. My 4090 handling every title out there with ease
I can see where you are coming from. I upgraded from a 1070 TI to a 5070 OC TUF and the difference is incredible.

Also Me : Getting 22 - 30 extra fps in every game I test with my newly installed 5090 FE leaning back on my gaming sofa like
