My (constantly changing) thinking is that with the boost in performance compared to my current (long in the tooth) iMac/macbooks, I might make as well go all out and make it my main work machine then just pick up an M1 or something if I need it for MacOS stuff in the future. But I think all my main tools have Windows compatibility (perhaps with the exception of exporting ProRes though that may have been changed - haven't worked on windows in a decade). At that price I was vaguely toying with a Mac Pro but don't want to get new Intel macs at this stage in their product cycle and I'd still ultimately be gaming in bootcamp.
CYOA
Was. Now ordered :/
Thanks though, Spots.
Only ordered the 3090 so far. Umming and ahhing about the rest. Latest (and probably not the last) iteration:

Way, way off my original idea (small form factor, ryzen 9). I've seen some SFF cases that fit a 3090 but they seem really cramped and I worry I'd balls the build. I also want native thunderbolt 3 in the motherboard which seems to limit me a lot. There was the B550 Vision D but it had a few first world probs like only 1gbE sockets compared to the 10/2.5gbE of the Z490, the latter also had USB for the front of the case built in etc - there are workarounds obviously but to my tired eyes the Z490 / E-ATX build seems easier straight out of the box?
