I am strongly considering building a Catalina machine with TB3 primarily for audio/recording and backwards compatibility with a TB2 audio interface. I'd like it to have a bit of upgrade potential particularly with the 2 unused ram slots and maybe other future capability. The designare z390 mb has had BIOS issues with TB1 but I've seen reports of TB2 audio interfaces working fine and I like the built in TB3. Wifi/bluetooth will come later (unless there's a reason I need them now). The following is my parts list, and please let me know if anything looks out of place or doesn't make sense, and also if I appear to be missing anything for a complete build. I'd like to dual boot eventually which I'm sure requires a second SSD. If I'm not missing anything, this seems like a fantastic build for the price. Thanks!!
