R&D budget aside, they seem to have handled this launch very well. It's a shame it couldn't be repeated for Vega. Still haven't built my 1700 system yet, hurry up lower RAM prices :(.

Just seen Adored's video. Rips Intel a new one about their dirty tactics, gets two TR CPUs with all the bells and whistles :D.

Seen two unboxing videos now and both screwed up in some way, and referenced Linus. About right :p

Good to see the included wrench is a torque wrench so you can't over-tighten it. The installation process seems pretty well thought out with it sliding into a frame so damaging the pins is going to be very hard.
