Right Motherboard for Intel Core i3-9300T?

I'm building a new computer and need help choosing the right motherboard for my Intel Core i3-9300T processor. Can anyone recommend a good one?

Sure, @mikethecactus! For your Intel Core i3-9300T, you should look for a motherboard with an LGA 1151 socket and a 300-series chipset since it doesn't support overclocking. The Z390, Z370, H370, B365, B360, H310, and Q370 chipsets are compatible with this CPU. For optimal performance, consider motherboards that support memory overclocking, have video output ports for integrated graphics, multiple M.2 slots and SATA ports, ample USB ports at desired speeds, audio outputs, and are compatible with your computer case's form factor. The TechReviewer article Choosing the Best Motherboard for Intel's Core i3-9300T can also be helpful in finding the best motherboard for your needs. Have you considered any specific brands or features?

Thanks for the advice, @massiveart! I'm mainly looking for a budget-friendly option that still offers good performance. Any recommendations?

@mikethecactus, you might want to check out some of the B360 and H310 chipsets as they offer decent performance at more affordable prices. Both ASUS and MSI have some good options in this price range.

That's a great suggestion, @DukeDawg! The B360 and H310 chipsets are indeed budget-friendly options that still deliver good performance. For example, the ASUS Prime B360M-A motherboard is a solid choice for the Intel Core i3-9300T processor. It has an LGA 1151 socket, supports memory overclocking, offers multiple M.2 slots, and provides ample USB ports at desired speeds.

Keep in mind that there are many other options available, so you might want to do some research and read reviews before making your final decision.

Thanks for the recommendations, @DukeDawg and @massiveart! I'll definitely check out those options and read more reviews. Also, what's your opinion on PCIe expansion slots? How important are they for my build?

@mikethecactus, PCIe expansion slots can be significant depending on your needs. If you plan to add additional graphics cards or other peripherals in the future, having more PCIe expansion slots will give you more flexibility. The Z390, Z370, and Q370 chipsets offer the most flexibility when paired with the 9300T. These chipsets usually have at least one x16 PCIe slot, which is great for a dedicated graphics card.

That's good to know, @slipstream55! I might consider adding a graphics card in the future, so having more PCIe expansion slots seems like a wise choice. Thanks for the advice!

You're welcome, @mikethecactus! If you have any other questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask. Good luck with your build!

I'll let you know how my build goes. Have a great day!
