[awaybreaktoday]

My 1700 and CH6 work great together so will likely stick with ASUS again.

so you will be upgrading from a platform which only a few months old?

I will be doing same...

ASUS ROG Zenith Extreme £519
Gigabyte X399 AORUS Gaming 7 £347

That is an expensive U.2 port lol.

When you read the comments you can see that the Threadripper is top binned to would clock slightly better than R7 processors.
I wonder how many instances of solitaire we can play at the same time.

Saving £100 and getting the non X 1950 seems like a plan if rumours are to be true.

Hmm no ASRock Taichi x399 board for preorder yet, would like to see the price of that.

The Asus mobo includes a 10Gb nic Card, they sell for ~£100.

Still a massive cost in comparision between the Asus and Gigabyte. I certainly couldn't justify the difference between them for the specs shown.

So it's a £420 board with a bundled extra that the majority of people will have no use for? Why couldn't they have just sold us the board cheaper and made that an option lol XD
