Nope. I guess that instead of listing the board with an uncofirmed release date that just keeps being pushed (like many other sites do), they take a more passive approach and wait until there is actually a confirmed date.

OCuK, When can we expect the pre orders??

I've seen it in other shop but coming soon! no date of sale yet

Think I might just get the standard Hero. With the cashback offer it is almost £150 cheaper, that is a lot to pay for passive cooling.

North America seems to be getting units through the channels now: https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/jwszo0/asus_north_america_finally_received_a_shipment_of/

Either it's a matter of time before EU get them or there is some serious delay on our continent.

Thanks for the update. Hopefully OC + UK Start selling this board soon.

I know it will sell out fast but the demand should be far less than CPU/GPU madness.

Ended up doing this myself. Arrived today, I'll get the cashback claim on the go tomorrow. <300 quid all in and won't introduce a shed load of heat having stock clocks boosted.

I also ordered the standard Hero today. The cashback made the price differential to hard to ignore.

15 days more or less, doesn't matter. Have the 5950x already for 10 days at home, so....

Got my Lian Li lancool 2 mesh with the lian li uni fans and nzxt 280m to highlight the rig. cross fingers will get them all by Dec

It's really strange no shop is able to give us any possible release date. At the same time we saw some shops (mainly in NZ, ok not Europe) which were having those in stock. Really can't understand.

It's all upside-down over there though. Water flows the opposite way down the plughole. They install the motherboard outside the case. Stands to reason they sell the board before they have stock. What a world we live in!

My reply was removed, guess because I mentioned a competitor... sorry!
Really want this board and will be purchasing it as soon as it's available in UK to go with my 5950x.

this is the final piece of my overhaul

no queue position yet for the 5900X, but I "accidentally" snagged a Z63 in the sales
