I built a 11th gen system last year. Based on the reviews of the mid-level motherboards that I looked at, it appeared that quality control for the 11th gen motherboards was lacking. The one I purchase caused blue screen after blue screen to happen for the install. I would highly recommend that you only purchase from a local store that you can return if the motherboard is defective. Ended up doing an RMA and the repaired motherboard worked well enough for another build. In the meantime I had to go buy another board from Best Buy.
11th gen runs much hotter than 12th gen. I would highly recommend just skipping ahead to 12th gen and save yourself the trouble.
For all the drawbacks of the 11th gen, I would say that 40% off of a motherboard that may or may not work that you may or may not have to RMA is not worth it. Perhaps if it was more like 70 or 80% off, then it would be worth the chance of problems.
Do not buy LGA 1200 chipsets. I have one. You will not be able to upgrade in the future.
duh... welcome to computers.
been building computers since 386s, never once upgraded a processor without a new mobo... it's pointless. by the time you want/need a better processor, new gen is out, new/faster memory is out, so on.
buy good stuff from well known brands (not off-brand China companies) and you'll be able to flip your old components, upgrades are cheap. upgrading from a 9700K to 12700K cost me ~50$.

this is 2 gens old, 11th gen wasn't great, and this is too expensive.
skip it and wait for a well priced 12th gen setup if you want to save money. ain't nothing wrong with being a gen behind if you save a bunch of money.

I grabbed the $75 MSI Z590-A Pro that GameStop had a couple weeks ago, after seeing an i5-10400 for $120, knowing I could grab an i7 or i9 used in a year or two for a nice upgrade.
Nice updated features from my Z170-P & i7-7700.
I think it was a good deal for my needs which didn't break the bank like a 12th or 13th Gen upgrade would.
Plus my Cryorig M9i (which I accidentally bought 2 of during my last build) appears to thankfully still work on LGA1200. Wonder if I should throw both fans on it.
