Gaymen features and aesthetic aside, that Mobo has a shit ton of features
>802.11ad
>Fuckton of ports
>4 16x lanes
Literally the board to end all boards in the HEDT segment so far

>>61673581

gaming might be proving to be detrimental for workstation CPUs but it is keeping the motherboard and GPU market very competitive.

>>61673581
actually it is 2 x16 and 2 x8

I think I am going to go for it lads. What else is going to fit with my 64gb Corsair Ram, 4tb Samsung SSD, Nvidia Titan XP GPU and Ryzen Threadripper

>>61673475
I still can't get over how massive that CPU socket is

>>61673475
Quad Vega thermonuclear crossfire when?

skip
wait for zen 2 multis

>>61673660
It's a big socket

>>61673679

AsRock Taichi seems like a most reasonable option.

My only problem with it is the fag colours.

>>61673679

>>61673475
Looks retarded with all that fucking plastic.

Wait, wtf is that IO? Do you need a special case for this motherboard?

>>61673660
How can Intel even compete?

>>61673697
You can change them you fucking retard.

>>61673706
In five years or so, all of the motherboards will have plastic like that, get ready.

>>61673716

They are just LED'S?

>>61673694

>>61673729
That's the only drawback, but I kind of like it.
At least it's not a gayfest.

>>61673761
>a little fan on the VRM heat sink
Still only 4ghz OC anyway, just like razen?
That's pretty poor.

>>61673800
Well it is Ryzen right.
And two enabled dies, so you can start to do the math there.
In that picture the board has had a decorative cover removed.

>>61673761
>>61673800
What I'm happy to see is that the heatpipe seems to go into an actual heatsink, and not just a stylish piece of aluminium.

>>61673657
>spending 10k on that when 7nm will be out early next year
ehhh?

>>61673863
Well it's not an Intel board, so why wouldn't you be able to dump your 7nm chip in there in a couple of years.
Furthermore, do you need this system now? If you do you need to shop now.

>>61673761

This convinces me to buy it. Without the fag colors it actually looks pretty good.

>>61673863
In May 2017, AMD CEO Lisa Su announced that AMD will tape out the 7nm Zen 2 architecture in 2017 and begin production in the second half of 2018

>>61673923
Yeah when the LGBT LEDs are turned off you can actually see the motherboard

>second half
ok fuck
buying Ryzen then

>every board has either 8+4 pin EPS cpu power or 8+8 pin EPS connectors
how are the VRMs going to handle the jewripper?

>>61674019
okay, disregard that post, didn't know that most of the HEDT boards have dual EPS requirement.

>>61673475
>That socket
It's bigger than muh dick.

Fucking retard pajeets put 4 CPUs on a single socket.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>>61673800
Because 4GHz on 16 cores is somehow not impressive.

>>61674115
It's nothing special actually.
Only 4GHz even on water is not much.
4.5 or even 5 on the other hand...

>>61673761
>>61673475
EK monoblock when!?

>>61674079
Well technically they put four dies on a single CPU
But yeah it's pretty dang cool huh

>>61673651
The allocations from most vendors seem to be thus far: 2x16, 2x8, 3x4 (for m.2), 1x4 (for chipset)

You can turn those LEDs off. You can't turn off a cog.

>>61673800
Threadripper goes up to 4.2GHz with stock boosting on the cheapest variant.

So no plans for ITX so far due to socket size eh?

Come on Ass rock.

>>61674911
>mITX board with socket on one side and extension slots on the other
Would make an awesome cube PC

>people care about motherboard aesthetics
Just put it in a fucking case, problem solved.

>>61675060
Almost all cases these days have a window.

>>61675127
There are plenty of good options without one. If you have a window, it's because you wanted one.

Is that for threadraper?

>>61675154
More like you went specifically out of your way to avoid windows.

>>61675154
This. Really no need to buy a case with a window.

Meanwhile, Intel's 16 core has a fucking base clock of 2,9GHz KEK

not even 3GHz base clock lmao

>Paying exactly for gaming features and aesthetic
>Gaymen features and aesthetic aside
So that's how MAD marketing works! Wow.

Intel:
>1151
>1150
>2011
>2011 v3
>2066

AMD:
>AM1
>AM2
>AM3
>AM3+
>AM4
>TR4

Now tell me which is the most confusing one (pro tip: it's intel)

>>61675278
Why so? I don't get it.

>>61673694
>>61673761
>>61673763

>only 8 SATA ports

kek, my fucking shitter ditch AM3+ mainboard has 6 sata ports

>>61675174
More like you're a dumb gaymer faggot who likes gaudy LEDs but is embarrassed to admit it.

>>61675246
Only because Intel are shooting themselves in the foot, by jewing out with gold plating (lack of) and thermal toothpaste.
If you delid, you can reach 4.5GHz+ on Skylake-X.

>>61675290
Tell me the release order

>>61675350
AM1 actually came out after AM3+

>>61675458

No desktop user would settle for wifi when ethernet is way superior. Why force normie rgb led on the rest of us? Why should I subsidize the cost of the fingerprint sensor on phones that will never be used?

>>61676077
If something sells enough they will force it on to you until they can't make profit off it anymore.

I bet if you tried to OC Intel's 16 core to 4 GHz you'd end up with a melted hole in your socket.

The guy who made the SKL-X delid tool isn't selling it because he thinks it's dangerous to use.

>>61676311
He is just trying to jew more money. He is asking 2x more for the x version.
He also still recommends intel, just so he can sell his delidding tool.

>>61676364
I'm sure the one guy who buys the 16 core Intel over Threadripper, delids it w/o destroying his $1700 CPU and hooks up his expensive custom loop w/o it dripping all over and frying the thing will be absolutely overjoyed that he gets 25% more performance over a 4 GHz TR OCed on an AiO.

>>61676311
>1k-1.6k usd cpu
>break whiles delliding
Oy. Buy more intel cpus

>>61676414
Who cares. I am not buying intel for myself any more anyway.
Toothpaste on the X series was the last straw for me.
I don't care about money, this is just simple disrespect from intel at this point.

All these people bitching about aesthetics when they push the "window case is ghey" meme. Shut up and pick a side.
