To add to already great reply here, I heavily suggest AMD AM4 unless you are an Intel guy specifically, as you get a much better deal imho ,on AMD at least prices I’m seeing on NewEgg.
As always IF you can afford 128gb ram GET IT :)) If you can swing it,you’ll never regret it, tho it can be hard to find 16 or 32 gb only sticks given you positively want to maximize your motherboard so 64gb means 16gb sticks IF again you can afford it and conversely 128 ,depending how many ram slots you have may mean 32gb sticks but depending how much ram speed you want might me you can’t maximize. YMMV but those are important things to consider. The rest is obvious, wifi ,Pcie4, usb 3.1 gen 2 , M2 blah, make a GOOD choice as funds allow to avoid regret later
OF NOTE, unreal dev I’ve seen post on answer website say, claim,that past 32 you have ‘diminishing returns’, something due to lacking funds here, I can’t attest to, but even if true and I assume it is, YOU DO want as much ram as you can afford, bc we all know how important multitasking is for a multitude of reasons.
Oh, yes! Sorry for missing AMD option. In fact I’m going to buy a PC too and it will mount an AMD cpu. What I was thinking when only talking about Intel? AMD currently offers much more performance for the same price, so go for it.
And I agree about the RAM too as @neighborlee . At very least, 16gb. But to work with GPUL remember that the GPU is the most important part of your PC. You could think about a Ryzen 3700x, RTX 2070, 32gb RAM.
