^ Asrock Taichi very solid board and no RagtagGlowingBits on it!!!

Looks like it could be the board of choice.

The Zenith is no doubt a great board but for some crazy reason ASUS priced it well above the competition, I cant fault my CH6 and would like to stick with ASUS but the Taichi price is more appealing :)

No idea what they were thinking with the Prime either, layout doesn't look great.

They will be a good heater for the winter. :D

I had an FX-9590 with a HAF case with 200mm fans, you needed that to get the heat from the chip and the boiling motherboard VRMs out of the case, that was no fun.

Reading around reviews overclocked the 7900X makes the FX-9590 look like a frozen pea!
Intel gave these things a 140 watt TDP... phhhaaaa! at least they have a sense of humour.

If it was going to be delivered today you would have received an email/text from dpd giving you a delivery window.
