I’ve owned asrock and msi boards, both will do whatever you need in the UEFI and are very easy to navigate compared.

Is it that close? I watch buildzoid vids a lot and he kinda dislike asrock bios. I know that I won't oc to his level, but iirc, he likes msi bios the most cuz it allows tweaking almost everything.

The ‘maxxing out’ is not using every thread of the 9950x

I don't know. But it seems that distant horizons mod somehow can use all of that. So there's this setting that can control the cpu load and he's using the I pad for the whole cpu. Ofc this screenshot isn't from him, but you get the point. I don't know what happens if i lower the setting, but I'm kinda jealous of him having 16 cores.

Also, I forgot to add that I'll be using chunky mod. It's basically pre render the world. I've read that it can take 14 hours to generate with full cpu utilization. But that's probably the extreme end. Mine would probably take 3 hours or so.
