Roll on the 3rd though! I dont think my nerves can take much more.... I had some DDR4 3200 C14 2x8GB in my basket last night whilst browsing for components in bed (competitor) for like £91 and thought i'd buy it in the morning. woke up, back upto full price!!!! Then today I read that AMD have updated the MC so now we can buy and use DDR4 3800. I was poised to buy a new AIO because corsair was slacking, but today you can buy a bracket..... I want my new shineys as soon after release as possible, this 2500k needs to be put to bed. I'm fighting with myself not to buy parts early right now. I havent been this excited about building a new PC for a VERY long time.

No BIOS updates for the Asrock Taichi yet, hope they update them for better RAM support before they start shipping :o Although maybe it already supports higher than 2666mhz and the manual is just being conservative?

What you using that many drives for? Video editing/storage or some kind of uber NAS?

I'll be doing a computer rotation, Ryzen will become my main PC for gaming and video editing, current 2500k will become my NAS / HTPC, and my FX6300 will be given to my friend :) Just hoping the parts aren't delayed too much, I have sod all to do this weekend but I have a feeling I won't make the first batch as I didn't order my 1700X and mobo until Saturday...
