Actually no, It was because of some medical stuff I needed to get done, and would rather not deal with leaving work to go for an appointment and drive all the way back to work. Made more sense to book time off. But it worked out for the better, as my appointment is minutes away from home, so I...

I do however feel a little bit for the folks who were hoping for the 6 core models being available at launch. I can completely understand their disappointment.

You can't deny it is likely the best value out of the three sku's released so far, however popping for the 1800x ensures you get the best binning of the wafers :)

The other comment I found interesting was advising me not to populate all 4 slots, because it prevents me from upgrading later on. Well, if I am going straight to 32GB ram from the start, there is no way I will be needing an upgrade. I know from past usage on my computer that I routinely cross...

That applies to the Asrock board, and doesn't specifically apply to an Asus board. How can you generalize a statement for one product to another unrelated product from a completely different manufacturer? That's like stating one brand of board has crappy VRM cooling, and saying all boards...

Here is the information on the Ram I was able to find in the specs listed directly from asus.com regarding crosshair VI hero. I was not able to find any corresponding note at the bottom regarding the * Nowhere does this state anything about being limited to 2 sticks of ram. Obviously we cannot...

seems like worst case scenario I will have to clock down a bit and see what happens in the long run, which isn't so bad.

Where is this information coming from? Asking the question, since there isn't anyone who has run these new boards and chips to even tell what can and cannot be done with the memory? From what I have now read since ordering the 3600 ram is that the boards generally overclock to 3200, but that...
