    Yeah I already got one in mind and looked it up on linux-hardware.org - any other option I‘d have to make sure the next one is alright? (Besides socket and compatibility with my other hw)

      Sorry I have no idea. It’s been ages since I last bought a mainboard and that one was recommended in a computer magazine… I’d google it. See if other people have issues with it. And I’t trust blogs, Reddit and forums more than the traditional compatibility charts.

        Alright, no worries! You invested so much time and effort trying to help me out, I can‘t thank you enough for that, really really appreciate it much!

          Hehe, no worries. I think the community needs to stick together. I used to do (voluntary) computer support once a week at university before I moved, now I occasionally do it here. It’s always nice being able to help people …Or in your case at least trying… To me, it’s way more fun than discussing politics or the latest news, anyways. And I mean I’m no exception. I also sometimes need support, ask questions about a new distro or get my itches scratched by people who solve my issues on Github.
