@ waltc3 , not sure why you are so worked up about a mobo review, but personally feel all x570 boards are a joke when it comes to overclocking capabilities or potential. Since Ryzen 3000 cpus are best left at stock, so any $200-250 board can do that while retaining most of the useful features.
Therefore, anyone looking to buy a x570 board, forget about robust power stages, phases or VRMs, as no point in OC'ing Ryzen 3000 series. But I can see people buying higher priced boards for features they may need or are useful to them. Lastly, the only thing I find a bit pointless in mobo reviews are benchmarks. I mean come on, they are all within 1% (or less) of each other, so why bother when the only results we see are due to the different CPUs used.

:)I am trying to find a decent review of the passively cooled X570 aorus extreme , i know its expansive but it looks like the best MB for the 16 core that will arrive in September , Hilbert what are the chances that gigabyte will send you one for testing ?:D

@waltc3 ... HH is testing UHD and QHD ... you said that 1080p is so yesterday but I think that QHD is like 5% ( can't really find a survey now ) ... So if you are in that 5% ELIT .... good for you ... but some mortals still game on 720p and 1080p

hi guys,
does anyone have the bitspower or EK monoblock for this motherboard? Is it worth the money?

The VRMs on this board don't need anything beyond passive cooling. Just get a good quality CPU block and you'll be fine. Unless you want your board to be blingy bling purty, then by all means.
