VRM cooling? Hello?
I'm sticking with ASRock for thunderbolt 3 support
MSI has this on tomhawk also now.
Good to know! Thanks for the update.
I'm struggling to find a source for this, the only thing I can find on the internet is the ASRock support, and a single article about the MSI Tomahawk, but I'm not exactly sure which model of the tomahawk incorporates it because I can't find it in any spec sheets.
Thanks for the information!
Waiting on shipment details from pccasegear for my pre-order…
I was ordering from PCCG too then they bumped my order to middle June instead so i ordered from Scorptec.
I got in much before around 21st and say 1st june. Have reached out to them for an update. Waiting anxiously now.
I spoke too soon. My PCCG order is now showing status of shipped. So stoked.
Well Scorptec just delayed till 26th of June as well… fml
I ordered from Scorptec yesterday and it was shipped today, even though the ETA said June 26.
Just received my board this morning from PCCG. What an amazing board for the price. Will hook it all up and fire it up on the weekend. Props to PCCG for getting this out so fast. My pre-order date was may 21.
Looking forward to your results!!
So close to pulling the trigger on this board!
Please report back ASAP, including if you've done any OCing. :)
How does this compare to the Gigabyte X570 Aorus Pro WiFi or Elite? Sorry I'm a bit of a noob.
This looks, feels like an absolute premium board. Here is a good review. This guy initially ripped MSI a new one with the low quality motherboards for X570. He was singing praises for this:

Thanks.Cheapest i found, but only pre-order awaiting stock is $367 @ Skycomp + $25-$70 Shipping
Big problem is the 2-3month lead time.
I see scroptec have increased their price from $389 -> $399
Motherboards emit so little heat they don't need fans although that isn't stopping some board makers. You simply aren't going to be drawing enough power.
