Dude you bougth a "GAMING" motherboard not a "SERVER" motherboard.
Between gaming and server computers are a crazy difference.
Also your CPU is bad for servers.
Firstly, there actually isn't much difference between server grade and gaming motherboards, like sure one might support ECC + IPMI and the other RGB + overclocking, but as far as compute goes, they are both effective motherboards.
Secondly, I don't think OP was going for a 'server' but more of just a workstation type build, so why one or the other?
Thirdly, why does it even matter? OP should be proud of their system whether you like it or not. Even if they are using it as a server, my first server was just some reasonably priced consumer grade parts and I never had any sort of stability issues with it.
Honestly depends on what are you going to do with your PC.
PC's have become really powerfull over the past years and with only a 2020 PC build can overkill a lot of stuff even in terms of servers.
As i said it, it will come to the factor of what are you going to do. Unfortunately the 2020 build are not going to "cut" well in terms of gaming.
