First view of X399 for ThreadRipper. Ignore the tool in the vid. Check out the size of the socket.....and all those pins.

I don't doubt that. It's similar to an X99 layout, and those boards are still expensive now.

if it all comes together and everything talks properly to each other itll be a mother of a board, cpu, ram, set up at a guess, AMD has certainly put a lot of forethought and work into the ZEN range of stuff and obviously ASUS doesnt want to miss out on it

even if i had the money readily available, i wouldnt go for all the bullshit they have today, id rather spend it on older stuff, its more challenging, more fun and i think requires more skill, determination and effort and on top of that its helping keeping older gear alive, coz the older gear is where all this new gear originated from, too many too easily lose the sight of that fact and jump in to the newest there is and just discard where it originally came from as far as im concerned
