I know it may be a loaded question but what would be a recommendation for a good/best, top-of-the-line motherboard for a Desktop p/c.
Don't do gaming - not interested in lights and other do-dads.
Do regular Word, Excel, Financial Software, VPN to work computers, maybe image tweaking, browsing.
Looking for something that has good amount of connection option with on-board video & audio to start.
Upscale sata and USB.
Intel or amd doesn't matter.
Have sata ssd's and hhd's to attach.
Not overly concerned with cost - can make own value judgments.

Any ideas/recommendations?

Thanks.
