So I am trying to piece together a new build. I really need suggestions on everything. The underlying issue was the need for a dual monitor setup and windows 10 upgrade, so I started looking at video cards. I was not keeping tabs on that whole debacle, and am still using my 8800 GTS 640. So down the rabbit hole I went; realizing GPUs were few and far between, I excitedly preordered an 11900K. The reviews came out and left a funny taste in my mouth, but AMD seems like it would put me in a same NET situation moneywise.
My plan is to use the iGPU for dual displays (1080p? x 2) until I can land a 3060ti or better. Motherboards I am thinking the z590 chipset; I was hoping to see EVGA's boards but doubtful will show in time. I will need new storage options, memory, and power. I will continue to research, but any feedback and direction as what to either consider or avoid is greatly appreciated.
I am not concerned about a budget per se, the use will be mostly for embroidery/graphic designing, and general gaming. The overclocking features are nice to say I have, I don't know whether I will use them right off the bat, especially if the 11900 runs hot. I'll start there and TIA
