Great but no Gaming K4 WTF! Surely they would be on the same shipment.

Switch to Taichi!

I would, actually no I wouldn't too expensive, my colour scheme is red/black. I've asked customer service if they got any X370 Gaming K4.

Keep us updated regarding the K4 - I'm in the same boat!

The Killer is in stock too... maybe this is a marketing ploy to get us to upgrade to the Taichi?

On the bright side, the BIOS has had another update on the K4:
[Beta] 1.94A 3/30/2017 BIOS

6.29MB Improve XMP DRAM compatibility.

Oh great a bios update on the board I don't have. No reply from customer service, must be lunchtime.

Vish Petrol · 30 Mar 2017 at 12:26

I was looking at getting the taichi, along with the thermatake core p3, but unsure between the snow white case or black case, can anyone offer an opinion on which one will look better?

I have a black evga psu, and will probably use the spire cooler to get started, then switch to the h100i rgb when fully setup.

It is kind of a good thing; as you'll have less problems to bump into due to the initial BIOS update.

Yeeeeah !!! Just ordered mine

HeX · 30 Mar 2017 at 12:49

Question is, do i order a Taichi now, or wait to the 11th and pick it up at the same time as the 1600X...

Chewie · 30 Mar 2017 at 12:59

Well I would say if money is not a problem and you don't mind looking at the Taichi box for the next two weeks then go for it

swfc247 · 30 Mar 2017 at 12:59

just contacted them in regards to my pre-order for the K4....informed it is a week or so away ! :confused:

rolypolyman · 30 Mar 2017 at 13:31

I have just cancelled my pre-order for the K4 with customer service. How are Biostar regarded these days for motherboards?

forgot to say that I had tried that, no dice

I'm not sure in that case, probably best to get onto their Tech Support, they may have a way to recover it.

HeX · 30 Mar 2017 at 13:57

Think I'm going to hold on a bit longer, I've waited this long. I really want an Extreme 4 X370 board, essentially the same as the Killer but with better audio and some extra bells and whistles. Taichi is too expensive for my needs, and the Killer has ancient audio. One day I'll get to build my new PC

I was going to suggest waiting for the 1600X as you'd most likely get free shipping. But I think you get free shipping anyway because of the number of posts you've made

Any pre-orders had their taichi ship yet? fingers crossed mine goes out today!

Thats mine just gone!

Chewie · 30 Mar 2017 at 14:40

They must have received a subsential amount as my newly placed order was processed and expedited within the hour. Delivery scheduled for tomorrow, unfortunately I still don't have the memory and the Corsair AM4 bracket...

a9009588 · 30 Mar 2017 at 14:41

Just got my shipping notification! Radiators and MDPC stuff should arive tomorrow too so going to be a lot of unpacking to do!
