Awesome, is that a Compact as well? I couldn't decide if it was the Compact or Nano, it didn't seem like the full size!

I'm 'only' on a 3090 FE, but basically it seems like we're all very very similar in setups in here haha.

It is yes also Peerless Assasin 120 SE gets the job done in this case.
Great cooler for the price.

which PSU you have? I had the MSI MEG 1300w but it turned out to have faulty 12whpwr rail so now I'm kinda worried to go with these new ATX 3.0 PSU's because i seen few people having issues in Reddit with them.
Stuck with EVGA G2 850w for now

Corsair RM850i and it is not one of the new ATX 3.0 PSU’s I just got the 12VHPWR cable for it.
 
Hello everyone! I have a question. I bought a MSI MEG X670e Ace motherboard and a Ryzen 9 7950x3D, I installed the latest chipset drivers, but the AMD I2C controller doesn't show up in Device Manager. It is normal? I thought it had to be installed. Thank you so much for your attention. Greetings

I just refreshed the main AMD product page and waited for 9 items to change to 10. And bought it. Didn’t use this whishlist thing people are going on about

Oh, I wasn’t suggesting you were a back door buyer. Lol. I am just surprised that 70 would be one of the first 30. I thought there were way more orders.

Yeah I found that too, obviously if you don't care about pcie 5 and all that (which is fair, nothing really uses it now or will be for a while, im just expecting to have the motherboard for many years at this point).

I managed to grab a Asus B650E-E anyway for £310 a couple weeks back which has way more features than I'll ever need I reckon but still only a bit more than regular B650s and gives me futureproofing with pcie 5 and lots of m.2 slots. Plus the added benefit of it looking great imo (minus the pink bits but apparently they are just stickers so I might remove them)

The ASUS B650E-E is a great value motherboard. I had it on order but cancelled it a few days ago when I found out it has the incredibly buggy Intel I225-V ethernet controller. I'm too worried I will be stuck with a £300+ motherboard with no working ethernet that I cannot return. Hope it works out for you!

Don't most of them come with this controller.?
I didn’t look into it but they all seem to be Intel 2.5Gb lan.

As @Tetras said, the higher end boards typically come with Intel, even though it is arguably the more troublesome ethernet controller. This spreadsheet contains a summary of all B650(E)/X670(E) motherboards and their features.

I went with B650E-E as well and I need lan to run well at 2.5Gbit as that is my home network.
Fingers crossed it will be fine.

I've got my fingers crossed for you!

I'm now assessing what motherboard to get, and unless you spend £350+ (or get the B650E-E), they just seem awful value for money. I'm also worried that I may end up spending a fortunate, only for AMD to turn around in 2 years and say, 'only our latest slightly tweaked X770E motherboards support Zen 6 top end CPUs. In which case, I have a useless £350+ mobo.

Maybe I stick with my 5900X and 4090 for another year or so....

Would one of you kind people with Trident Z RAM please measure the max height of the DIMM from the surface of the motherboard?

I'm toying with an upgrade but want to keep my big orange TC14PE cooler and need to confirm it will fit, I think it might be very close.
