I picked up a TR from NewEgg and also ordered the Asrock Taichi, though am still waiting on other components to arrive.
Quick question:
I came across the following picture that shows a grey colored cover the protects the LGA:

The Taichi board that I received from NewEgg is using a Foxconn connector and it does not have this cover: it only has the clear outer cover that is to be removed. I thought all TR4 sockets came with a protective cover? The board otherwise seems to be new, but something seems fishy....
Thanks
