Exactly, as mentioned before by even Gibbo; it'll depend on motherboard to support the top end memory configs. Just like with Intel motherboards; the higher-end the more features and performance support.

The Asus Crosshair VI Hero has backwards compatibility, so you can use any AM3 cooler or you can get a specific bracket for AM4 for other mobos.

AM3/AM4 Cooler Support
One of the biggest selling points of this motherboard is its support for both AM4 and AM3 compatible coolers, with mounting holes for both CPU socket designs. This will allow users to continue using their existing cooling setup and will give them a wider range of cooling options of they choose to upgrade their cooling setup.
Right now most coolers require an AM4 upgrade kit, which could take a considerable amount of time and money to acquire quickly.
It is a shame that more motherboard manufacturers have not included mounts for both CPU cooler types, as that would have made the upgrading process much simpler for a large number of users.

4.1 on option 1? If that works on the 1700 I'll be happy as with that.

Actually is 1 shop doing it's monthly sales promotion.
In addition if you see the prices, 6900K is $1000, 6950X is $1600 and so no.
No price changes of what other US stores had.
BioStar support 3600Mhz.

Anyone looking for a free X99 system
Sent an email today to my brother, if he can find anyone who wants he 6700K (undelided) & Z170 Formula OC before. If none found I will put it on MM when I have the 1800X on my hands.
And who ever buys the bundle will get a still sealed delid tool. Not needed any more
8Pack is a pretty strong guy. I would suggest not make such statements.I'm starting to think these pair are the same person and just trolling!
AHA. You are the Intel agent who asks everyone to reconsider their new AMD order???????
What's next? Inform them that they aren't allowed to buy AMD products with their credit cards?
YES. According to AMD they are committed with the socket and the AM4 will live for the whole four years circle of the Ryzen products, until we have the new ones some time in 2021. And it will work with both the CPUs and APUs. Hence you see many of them sporting HDMI, DPs etc already now. Also the AM4 boards, do support the Summit Ridge APUs. (the AM4 Athlons etc).

I have H100i V1 Do I need to contact Corsair for support bracket?
Soldato
that is not what you said in the post I quoted.
I've highlighted the bit you seem to have forgotten.
which is quite clearly Ryzen. is that or is it not what you said??
Soldato
Thats the thing,until we get final review motherboards and updates for the CPU,I think it was premature to think Ryzen might not support faster RAM on better motherboards,and the same goes with overclocking too as most of the results were validation samples or the R7 1700. If this is anything like an AMD GPU launch,they are probably were tweaking the whole platform down to days before launch,and it would not surprise me in the weeks after that we will see more of the same. Plus going by prior AMD CPUs,there are times when latency was just as important as pure clockspeed. The other aspect is the SKUs - it would not surprise me one bit the R7 1800X are the best samples for not only clockspeed but even memory controller overclocking.
Soldato
I take it these are legit. Single threaded benchmarks?
Depending memory, the 7700K can do 197. However we know the 1800X can do 163 with crappy motherboard and memory from the AMD presentation.
Nothing new. Check the multi core though
Soldato
Thanks. It's actually the very first h100 though. I don't even think it's h100i. I don't see that listed unless by h100i original they mean the one Iv got.

Was just curious, Its pretty close to intels amazing "7700k". That to me suggests there will legit be 2-3fps differences between the two chips in games apart from those that muti thread/use more than 4core.

This is one I have. Didn't realise it was nearly 6 years old!

Seems legit with what we have seen so far (considering the max turbo of the 7770k is 500mhz more than the 1800x).
Everything points to ~ broadwell levels of IPC
Soldato
That would be pretty reasonable if that is what is for games on average.
Jesus:
Kinda falls in line with what that Turkish site said 'behind in ST but double of the performance in MT '. Btw this also means that with Oc 1800x will be faster than 7700 even in STI take it these are legit. Single threaded benchmarks?
Holy cow, What are the smoking suggesting it can do 4.4ghz? XP
