That's an extreme far fetch considering what you quoted was stating something about AMD that is also the same with Intel. Of which both systems had their problems in the beginning, and therefore both systems are the same, yet people are stating they are not. They are hounding on AMD for its infancy period and giving absolutely no recollection of Intels infacy periods on new chipsets and designs, let alone massively overhauled designs.
I was talking about RAM, not new chipsets. What issues do you remember with DDR4 on Intel btw?

A lot of help that did for chispy... That was the clincher. Maybe a non-issue now, but again performance-wise I could flip a coin between KL and ryzen. Only thing that mattered to me is rock solid stability and no extra time wasted fiddling around with issues, minor or not.
Yes i can confirm that is true , that was with the first initial Bios released that came with the board Asus CH Vl hero 0502 it had an internal bug causing it to brick out of nowhere when overclocking the ram to DDR4-3200+ because auto rules on that bios was setting the cpu soc voltage way too high causing corrupted bios , hence the board was trying to auto update the bios to fix itself but on that bios it could not do it , hence bricking the board. A quick RMA and a few days later i had a new board in my hands and Elmor from Asus had a new Bios that fixed the problem by then. That bug has been fixed thankfully.

MY board, with the default UEFI firmware, wouldn't even post with the memory above 2400mhz.... Keep in mind, I pre-ordered my board and processor and got them on launch day....

Did some further readups on the "review" and it seems that they used 4 RAM modules instead of 2...which at the moment is not supported. :bang: better wait for the real reviews wihtin current specifications...
