Intended uses?

The Maximus mobo is a waste of cash pretty much whatever your uses. What do you want from it that another mobo does not provide?

The Pro HDDs aren't really worth the cash tbh.

Why 32GB RAM? If it's just for gaming it's a waste - 16gb is more than adequate. 32gb is not futureproof.

Also, if gaming, what monitor is this all going with?

Fitting monitor for the build :)

As for the mobo, depends on the features you want to a degree, but:
Z390-F or AORUS Pro - both have most bells and whistles you could want. They only have USB 3.1 Gen 1 for the front panel USB C, but how many USB 3.1 Gen 2 devices do you even own...

Alternatively AORUS Master - excellent board, very good VRMs apparently, 3 M.2 slots, also has wifi and bluetooth. At least you're getting some bonus features for a mobo in that price range.

But if you don't need the wifi and are unlikely to use all 3 M.2 slots, the Z390-F or AORUS Pro seem like the better buy.
