870 motherboard

64gig ddr5

hmmm what do you plan to use your server for mainly?
if its something like plex or jellyfin then intel cpus might still work better for you since intel quick sync is still great for transcoding video.
if its mostly other stuff your ryzen 8700g shouldnt have any issues

this may or may not give you issues (like pretty much every nic on the market)
seems like it uses either a Aquantia AQC107 chipset or the newer AQC113 chipset
i am not incredibly familiar with aquantia compatibility.
i would definitely google around "Aquantia AQC### truenas scale" and see what kind of experiences others have had

highly recommend at least stepping up to a lsi 9305 or lsi 9400 because the 9300 runs super hot and chuggs on electricity.
Getting a card with IT mode, like you picked, is a must
