Heads up , Some Beta bios for those interested, Having tried the F3b this is a welcome site. Need to drop to the release F2 to use the ram at anything over 2400 base.
Includes the 1004 AGESA code too.

I've had a shipping notice from OCUK today for the K7, and arriving tomorrow.
Very happy, since I was considering swapping to the CH6 if it didn't come in by the end of the week. But people have been saying the CH6 has dodgy BIOSes.
Te Gaming 5 is in stock so is the main difference between the 2 models?
Just a note, there's actually three, the Gaming 5 is a Gaming K7 with the BCLK chip removed/disabled as the above poster said. And the Gaming K5 is a K7 with the BCLK chip present but other things removed like the U.2 port, the second NIC, and maybe (I'm not sure) a different VRM setup?Te Gaming 5 is in stock so is the main difference between the 2 models?

Got mine today also just waiting for my kraken bracket.
Did you get 2 or 4 sata cables in the box? It says 4 in the manual but only 2 in the box.
Not that it matters just a bit wierd
Had a check and I've got 4. It's 2 packets of 2. Each packet has 1 right-angled connector and 1 straight one.
The bits and manuals underneath the board did seem a bit haphazardly put together though, so maybe they're rushing them out and forgot?
I also have 2 things which I assume are temperature probes, or something. The 2 long cables with a black-opaque-LED looking diode on one end, and a 2-pin mobo connector on the other.
Any early feedback here from the K7 owners?
