So I was looking at some ASUS motherboards for my PC and I don't really understand the complex stuff written there.. This is my first time dealing with hardware so I don't really understand what thing means what and what does it do. For example, I don't know what PCle or M.2 means.
I'm gonna attach pictures of some motherboards I liked below. Can someone explain me what the labelled things do?
Also, I read somewhere that the Microprocessor and the chip-set of the Motherboard should be compatible. Again, I don't understand what the chip-set does or why the processor and chip-set should be compatible but is there any place where I can find out which processors are compatible with which Motherboard.
I dont know if this info matters but in case it does - I want an ATX sized Motherboard. I'd prefer if the motherboard has built-in WiFi, Bluetooth, Ethernet support, Audio support and other features like this. And I'm planning on buying either an Intel i7 8700K 3.2 GHz or Intel i7 8700K 4.7 GHz . Obviously I need HDMI/USB ports. Um and I will be using 32GB of Ram (16 x 2) so I guess the motherboard should support that too..
Please don't roast me I know I'm asking very dumb questions but I'm trying to learn and not mess up. I'd appreciate it if someone could help me with these dumb doubts of mine.
