How do I know which CPU and motherboard to pair with a graphics card?:mindblown:
GPUs pair with everything pretty much. It's the CPU and motherboard that you gotta match. You can run say an nvidia card with both AMD and Intel CPUs (same with AMD cards). What you really gotta match is your CPU, mobo, and ram

Ok now my next question is what CPU and motherboard should I get? There’s way too many options.:pachaha:

Also I was looking at a 4070 ti super card, is that good enough to do 4K60? How about 1440p/120?:jbhmm:

Every CPU and Motherboard is matched based on a specific chipset. So if you had an Intel 12th Gen that would be the Z690 chipset. So you would then search for a Z690 motherboard to pair it with. Intel is now on the Z790 chipset but Z690 and Z790 are both compatible. AMD is currently on the AM5 platform and those boards are X670 and X670E.

The GPU really doesn’t matter. You can use anything. All you have to really concern yourself with is the size of the GPU and if it will fit in your case.
