Motherboard Choices
Okay, so my build has gone slightly hooligan with lots of ram and a graphics card capable of three monitors and up to 5120x2880dpi.
This pc will be mainly net, I go in to things, get distracted and before I know it I've got 40 Opera (changing back to Firefox during the build) windows open - ultimately I'll run two screens and if I can find some games that aren't keyboard based I'll try them
I have all the parts spec'd out, I just can't decide on the board - these are my choices, I need 6 sata ports, the only way I can split these two boards is that the gaming board gives you two extra USB ports.
I've gone with Asus as this box has an Asus board and has run faultlessly 24x7 for 7 years.
Asus TUF Z390 Plus Gaming ATX LGA1151 Motherboard - Umart.com.au
Asus Prime B360-PLUS/CSM LGA 1151 ATX Motherboard - Umart.com.au
Advice and thoughts would be much appreciated folks.

No - the main difference is the Intel chipset being used. Only get a Z390 if you are planning on future upgrading to a 9XXX series CPU - otherwise save your 70 pacific pesos & go with the more reliable B360 board.
