>3733MHz recommended >4200+ 'with ease' lol I recently bought 2x8 3200 and thought it was hot shit. Already deprecated fuck my wallet

>deprecated i wouldn't say that 3.2ghz is plenty, and if you are able to oc them to 3.4 even better. but there are some glorious times ahead, that's for sure.

They're probably still using Cadence IP for the IMC. Its likely that AMD bought a DDR5 IMC design from them which is backwards compatible. DDR5 is expected to break 6000MT/s so 4000MT/s rates with DDR4 DIMMs won't be much of a sweat.
Lack of Thunderbolt is a drag. All that bandwidth but no external peripherals that can take advantage.

>Motherboard vendorst are betting hard on X570 only real red flag tbqh, altho im hopeful the benchmarks by 3rd party wont disapoint
the chipset needing a fan means the fans will die in under 5 years. if the chipset needs active cooling all the time, thats a mobo you know you will need to replace in 5 years. this also means that the B boards might not do PCIe 4.0 so no futureproofing on that part

No one has any hands on with any motherboard yet. Not only that, but each manufacturer is different. Asus was talking that the fan will only be on when you're running a couple of NVME drives, where as I think it was Gigabyte who claimed their fans will be on all the time. On top of all this, if you have ANY sort of case flow, that would help too.

Is anus ws x570 the white man's choice? How can I check if any of the hardware on the board requires non-free kernel blobs? Also, why there's no 10Gb ethernet adapter. It's almost 2020, for fucks sake. asus.com/Motherboards/Pro-WS-X570-ACE/specifications/
