Dependent on the type of hashes you're attempting will determine whether or not it is gpu resistant or cpu resistant. So knowing which type of hashes would easily define if you need a GPU even at all.
Otherwise, the rule of thumb for hash cracking is typically Mainboard RAM = VRAM so if you're using 2x 3090's it would be wise to include atleast 48GB of RAM seeing as each 3090 has 24GB VRAM. As for a guide in the rest of the departments, it's totally based on user. If you're having alot of success and not looking to expand with what you currently have, then a simple basic motherboard would do. Make sure the positioning of the 2x 3090s would be using both 16x PCI-E lanes otherwise you will/could see bottlenecking. We would need more information to determine what's best suited for your setup.
Hashtype
Room for expansion or not
Budget (which doesnt look like an issue to you)
Experience also comes into play
