@alldemchickens, you should consider factors like overclocking capabilities, memory channels, PCIe slots, and chipset compatibility. Have a look at this TechReviewer article Choosing the Best Motherboard for Intel's Core i9-14900T for more information.
@melonhead316, MSI MAG B760 Tomahawk WiFi DDR4 Gaming Motherboard is a good choice if you're looking for value. It has decent features, but it doesn't support PCIe 5.0 slots via processor.
What about the ASUS ROG Strix Z790-E Gaming WiFi 6E? How does it compare to MSI MAG B760 Tomahawk WiFi DDR4?
@alldemchickens, the ASUS ROG Strix Z790-E Gaming WiFi 6E is a high-performance motherboard that supports overclocking and has multiple PCIe slots. It's pricier than the MSI option but offers better features and performance.
@melonhead316, memory overclocking allows you to boost your system's memory speed beyond its default specifications, which can improve overall performance. Most of the recommended motherboards for the Core i9-14900T support this feature.
Great! I noticed that the Intel 14900T doesn't have an integrated graphics output port, right?
@alldemchickens, correct. You'll need a motherboard with a video output port if you plan to use the CPU's integrated graphics for display purposes.
@melonhead316, it depends on your specific needs and use case. For gaming, at least one x16 PCIe slot is recommended. Some motherboards offer two x8 PCIe slots, which can be beneficial if you plan to use multiple graphics cards.
