If there’s a PC part that we needed an in-depth guide on, it would be the motherboard.
This is made worse by the fact that the nomenclature (ATX, M-ATX, etc.) for motherboard types can be bewildering, and some of it can even confuse experienced PC builders. To make full use of this zeitgeist of high demand, media companies have pushed forth a lot of information regarding which CPU and GPU you should buy, but resources related to the motherboard are few and far between. This has given a huge incentive for PC enthusiasts to pick up new parts and, in many cases, a brand new computer. As we are reaching the end of a generation for both memory (DDR4) and GPUs, prices for PC components have reached an unprecedented low.
