Hi MaLd0n,

I hope you're doing well! I know you must be really busy, but I wanted to reach out because I'm planning to update my current system. It feels like we're getting close to the end of the Hackintosh era, so I'm thinking of building a solid and reliable setup based on the Gigabyte Z890 chipset—something that will serve me well in the long run.

I've always trusted your knowledge and experience with these things. Could you recommend a stable and compatible motherboard that won't cause too much trouble?

Also, would it be possible to get paid support from you again during the setup, like before?

Thanks a lot in advance! Looking forward to hearing from you.
