Current motherboard works fine.  I am trying to get
ahead of Windows 12's idiot hardware requirements,
which qemu-kvm passes right through to it.  I have
been able to trick my way around W11's idiotic
requirements, but 12's are a nightmare.

I think Windows 12 hardware requirements are the least of your worries.

Windows 12 and Recall looks like a disaster. Or a disaster for users
and their privacy. Cf.,

Agreed.  But people will still buy them because they have
to have their M$ Office, Quickbooks, Family Tree maker,
Adobe Acrobat, point-of-sale software, etc..

M$'s OS'es are junk, but M$ has won the applications wars.
It is like pulling teeth tho get developers to develop
for both as they have zero Linux customer for their stuff
and they never will until they can offer Linux version
of their software.  Catch 22.

I really have no choice but to support M$'s junk.  I put
their OS'es in qemu-kvm virtual mach8ins.  Kvm passes
the hardware straight through to the VM, so I am in the
planning stages on upgrading my motherboard.

And is really annoys me that I have a perfectly capable
motherboard, but will need to replace it to support M$'s
junk.

I wrote the PCI (Payment Card industry) standards folks
about all the upcoming spying in W11 and 12.  They have
yet to answer me.  Running Point of Sale system
taking credit cards on a Windows platform is stupid,
but ...

You have any recommendations for a uATX Intel based motherboard?
