Looks like I'll be having fun with bios issues when I actually get it. Think I'm settled on the idea of the Aorus Master and just upping my Ram. Shouldny really need the xtreme for 3900X, sales make it worth while getting 2 deliveries. Just wish I knew about the loyal forum member benefits and Id of jumped ship from aria sooner lol.

4.2. Still won’t hit 4.6. That could be bios issue though.
From what Ive seen most tech channels are hitting 4.3 on all cores at a push with some losing the lotto and only managing 4.1 so Im not sure about you hitting 4.6 on all cores yet any way, it could be bios related though why are not getting around 4.4.

Not having my hands on any cant say more than what I see from tech media.

I think you get an extra m.2 with the ultra over the Pro and WiFi.
Ultra has dual finned heatsink and Pro just has it on the main bank .
If saving say £30 can push extra GPU power, I know what I would do . Or cash used to push 3800x if your not going to manually overclock and let PBO donors work with the extra headroom /tdp

Don't need the WiFi, get the Pro and save £30 ;)
I really dont know what to do I think the chipset cooler looks crap compared to the £300 model Im also not a fan of the back shroud. i just expect more for the price of the board alone. considering I can buy £170 boards with post codes on them and nicer looking shrouds

If you have a windowed case and aesthetics are important to you - the £30 will be worth it if you have the money (just promise you won't spoil it with unicorn vomit).

I prefer the look of the ULTRA over the PRO - it's almost as though they made the PRO deliberately stark/ugly to creep up your spending...

But, if you have no window - definitely get the Pro.

I do have a windowed case I have the r6 in black but ive been tempted to get the pc011 in white. I do have rgb but i keep it mainly to pink and blue to gvie it a vapour wave look plus the strip behind my desk is nice on the eyes at night

From your reply it sounds aesthetics play a significant part in the enjoyment of your hardware (i enjoy it and i can't see mine) - in which case i would say £30 is no brainier for getting a motherboard that suits your overall build/taste.
