Is this board a flagship? It goes for about 800$ in Sweden. I miss something on the back More ports for audio. Otherwise a very beautiful and functional board. With the red Usb ports.

GODLIKE is the flagship for MSI. I'm using using Z890 Unify-X right now.

It's a nice board, but it is not one for a cheap system. Put a suprim-x gpu on it. I like msi stuff. Always have.

There is a cheaper Z790 to. But i liked the design on this more with the 3 buttons in the middle.

Is the core ultra 9 285k the best choice for this board?

It is the highest performance CPU on that platform. Is it the best? that depends on your needs.

You are unlikely to use any of those buttons more than once.

It sounds like you are going to lay down serious money for an Intel system. Yeah, it will be nice. the price will be high as giraffe titties, but you know that.

Some cas 40 ddr5 8400 cudimms too

suprim-x rtx 5090

One of these hot new samsung 9100

You could probably get by with a good 1000w power supply, but 1600w is just one step up , but get a top model titanium.

you won't be satisfied with a top shelf board and cpu if the rest isn't top shelf.

Yes. I thought about MSI MEG Z890 GODLIKE, it seems to be from 2024. I like the design. I really liked the 3.99 display to the right. But to be honest you can buy a display and insert in the chassi.
