Going to be building an i9-9900K w/ RTX 2080 Super. Anyone have any suggestions on a good mobo and PSU?

Why not a Ryzen 5 1600AF
Save the difference for a nice Mobo/PSU/Ram
ya, why not ryzen 7 or 9? i went ryzen 7 3700x when i built mine 3 months ago and no regrets.
For the PSU, I'd recommend a Seasonic, Corsair, or EVGA between 800 -1000 watts. Make sure it's at least 80+ Gold certified. For the MOBO, I'm afraid the choice really comes down to preference of features and quality. I'd advocate Asus and MSI boards. Just don't go with anything too old or outdated.
For the past seven years, I have done nothing but travel around the world getting shot up, locked up, blown up... and all I have to show for it are a couple empty rolls of duct tape.
im pretty happy with wat i did:

havent had any problems with anything. all the parts cost around 1535$
Depends on your budget but 750 G3 or G2 from evga are great units and for motherboard msi mpg or asus strix z390 boards will give you anything you ever need. 750 is a ton of power for that setup. If you haven't bought anything yet I'd wait tho. Intels 10th gen is going to be out soon which is 10 core 20 thread for less than 9900k and nvidia next gen is coming very soon as well. Like weeks not months.
For Power Supplies,

i prefer gigabyte for a brand and corsair PSUs are really good.
If you send me a budget I will build you a PC around the items that you want to have for sure. Let me know :)
