AM4 Boards are out!
BIOSTAR drew first blood.
So excited AMD finally got something that brings back real competition.
AM3+ and FM2's are both garbage. The last AMD processor I owned was Phenom II.

I also couldn't wait for the comparisons with the Intel one's.
Like which is better in each price bracket.

I'm really exciting with the release of their enthusiast cpu's, I'm into gaming and I might only need a Ryzen 5.
Thanks for the link. Subscribed to the channel as well.

I thnik the Ryzen 5 series would be more suitable for the mass market. The current 3 models are way too high end in a way that is not really necessary for most. A 4 core 8 threads is enough.

Totally agree. I would prefer something that is more 'manageable'.
The current highest end is really too overkill.
If you noticed the boards, they aren't cheap too. those x370

We might not see any $50 for Ryzen. I hope not.
