What's your pick for x570?

Gigabyte Master, i like the fact it has dual NIC's.

MSI Creation has done a good job including a 10G NIC at that price point compared to Gigabyte only including one in their top tier Xtreme board.
 
Whilst 2.5G and 10G LAN is an interesting prospect for the future it's simply not cost effective in a home environment when you start looking at compatible products to transfer to (Switches, NAS etc). That being said, I hate using anything but Intel LAN as have had plenty of issues with Broadcom etc in the past. Even with a 2.5G port available on the Master I'll be using the Intel GBe port.

Having had a further look it seems the Gigabyte Elite looks a better option in that respect as it places the PCIe x1 slots better than the Gigabyte Gaming X so that both PCIe x1 slots look usable. That would allow for separate NIC expansion later if need be.
 
Actually I think it's now between the Gigabyte Ultra and the Master from an overclocking perspective those are the two I need to decide between at some stage.
 
I seen reviews saying they can hear the chipset fan, maybe that's why the price drop ?
I would want a silent pc , like all my other fans on PSU /Gpu don't start/ ramp up tell heavy load
so nice & silent while browsing & watching a movie

That's why I am torn between getting a X470 Taichi or waiting until someone has stock on the Gigabyte Xtreme as silence is high on my priorities.
 
No competitors allowed? I only posted it because Gibbo is telling people to buy it from them at that price in the other thread lol. :D
 
I've just had to delete a load of posts due to competitor info & prices being thrown around, this is strictly against the forum rules!

Any further rule breaks of this type will not be tolerated, so please bear that in mind ;)

See my post above yours. Just following Gibbo’s recommendation in the CPU section... I only repeated his recommendation.
