I don't get why people who aren't already running Ryzen 9s, i9s or 4090s are buying anything besides the cheapest option. On my last 3 builds I always sorted by price and picket the cheapest option for the CPU Socket, payed at most 70$ and never had any issues. If you need to get the last 5% of performance by overclocking I get it, but for anyone else this is a giant waste of money.
Motherboards are all about I/O and connectivity.
Personally, I do the exact same thing (I'm still Running an MSI B350M with a 5900X) but I can understand people that pay a couple hundred bucks to have extra ports / slots or built in wifi or whatever ....
$1000 for a motherboard tho ... that's ridiculous. What could possibly be worth 1000$?
