Bought the Crosshair Hero, can always return if the reviews go south (doesn't look like they will)

Think it will be the 1700 for me though with the cooler + some ram will pretty much swallow my budget for this round

Still, if you can stretch to it then it's going to be a VERY good basis for a powerful system for years to come :cool:

Enjoy!!
 
i'm selling up shop. Going all AMD, time to put my wallet where my mouth is. After years of abusing AMD for lackluster performance, i have been transformed from a intel fan boy :D
 
I'm thinking of upgrading from my i5 4670K. Will the gains be substantial enough to warrant upgrading to the 1800X?

I've also currently only got a GTX 980 too but waiting for Vega to decide what to go with on the next release cycle.
 
I went for a 1800X and Crosshair Hero in the end. It's the first time I've built a gaming PC using AMD, actually quite excited about it :D

Pretty much got my whole new PC bought now, just sat waiting for a mobo and CPU. Need the reviews now to see what board I want, and then R5 1600X to appear. Damn you waiting!

Originally ordered the Asus Prime motherboard, but I called up this morning and got it changed to a Crosshair VI Hero :)

I nearly went with the prime but thought as it's going to be a while before I swap out mother boards to go top tier! Ordered the hero in the end.
 
I'm thinking about the prime. Still not ordered. Was gonna order today, but got a call to say I'm going out the country for work for the next couple weeks, so I can wait on the reviews, lol.

I was picking the Prime over the Crosshair because I want to potentially drop an APU in there at a later date, so need the video outs that aren't on the Crosshair. Plus £100 in my pocket.

I could be wrong, guess we'll find out tomorrow. I just don't remember pre-ordering components and them turning up on release day. Hopefully it does come on Thursday, I want my new shiny shiny just as much lol.
