Asus ROG X570 Crosshair Dark Hero Release? *** NO Competitor Talk ***

[RichL]

^nice got mine coming this week too. Just waiting on the 3080 Strix now...

 

[Mr Evil]

One UK retailer changed their product page from "coming soon" to "sold out". I wonder if that means they actually had some in stock?

 

[Datanode]

Or they got an update that said no stock, sadly waiting for this board too, like some others it is the only bit left ... think I might give up. I expected Nov 5th originally, then end of November realistically, which became start of December, with nothing clear, I just can’t be bothered now

I see that suspicious scalper posting for £700 is back online again

 

[Razor Time]

By the time I get my hands on this board the X670 is going to be on the horizon. Pretty poor release from Asus.

U got to love DPD, my Dark Hero just been delivered

Mine is still on the way with DPD, but had no update sine the 3rd. Was last seen somewhere in the czech republic, Est. is still for tomorrow, but I'm thinking more likely Tuesday.

Was hoping to be all built for cyberpunk but it's getting awfully close. My ram from Germany is also supposed to be coming via ups tomorrow too, but i've got little faith with them as they loaded my new keyboard onto the wrong van on Friday and don't have customer service over the weekend

It is a bit of a nightmare getting parts, I've actually found getting the specific PSU I wanted as hard as my GPU and mobo.

Actually I just looked through the options I fancied, nothing in stock anyway

There were 5 in stock in the UK, but all gone now (took almost half an hour for them to go)

Ah you've got to be kidding me !

I think I know the place you’re referring to and I think I may be one of the five

Congrats! Mine's arriving with DPD tomorrow (today), and the 5900x will be on Tuesday. Both from the same place. Ordered last Tuesday/Wed.

Well, I’m holding my breath until it arrives. Anything could happen between now and then

My Dark Hero came with a Zen 2 Bios. Make sure you update it to 2601.

Ouch, thought they were all zen 3 ready out the box, you can do this without a zen 2 cpu right or with a zen 3 cpu in there just won't do anything I presume? sorry if this is bit of a noob question

 

[Doug2507]

Yeah, just flash bios with no cpu in it.

 

[nick695]

Yeah, just flash bios with no cpu in it.

Will need to check this then before building the PC, don't want to install the cpu and install it all and to case and then find out I need to dismantle it, thanks for the heads up

 

[Datanode]

Hmm can’t wait anymore;

pulled trigger on a different board, slightly odd feeling, but it isn’t right to be waiting like this.

I have had so many bits for my first custom loop build ... I think I will just start building and enjoy ...

I know it isn’t passive and doesn’t have dynamic OC but

Probably worth you editing the quote too @Dupppex just incase they over swing the hammer.
