Yup, RGB Led light at the outer ring.

To give way of Threadripper?

I'm using same board as you before (sold it after few weeks & bought Asus C6H), paired with Corsair dominator platinum 3200mhz C16 (4x8GB) able to reach 2666mhz, my cpu is Ryzen 1700 btw.

Ryzen is new product for AMD, some hiccups here & there is quite normal, AMD is trying its best to overcome all these issues, the new Agesa 1.0.0.6 microcode update is going to solve the ram issue according to AMD, right now some motherboard manufacturers have released their beta bios & the feedback from users are quite positive.

I think the ver2.40 is still not incorporated with the new agesa microcode otherwise it will stated in the description. For your question flash from ver2.10 direct to 2.40 by skipping 2.30, you will still get whatever updates from 2.30.

Worth to read this

Right now depends on which brand/model/ram chip, samsung b die chip (3200mhz) has a very high chance straight to run 3200mhz just by xmp/docp setting, after new bios update this compatibility issue could be solved.

Based on some experienced users said gigabyte and msi are better than asrock and asus in terms of ram compatibility issue, i'm still suffering cold boot issue eventhough bios has upgraded to agesa 1006 beta version.

Seem like latest microcode upgrade still didn't solved this issue

Just like me, end up bought gskill C14 which using Samsung b die chip, at least able to solve the ram compatibility issue

DDR stands for double data rate, so each single channel is running at 1333mhz to equal 2666mhz of double data rate. In short, you are running at 2666mhz

For those who looking for itx board, Asrock Malaysia FB announced the below 2 itx boards will be arrived before end of July.

X370 Fatal1ty Gaming-ITX/ac - RM799

Its slightly lower end bro Crosshair Hero already selling around RM1200+, so i guess this big bro at least RM1500++

Crosshair hero has been in Malaysia market since ryzen released locally, i myself also using that board. For Extreme board maybe take another few week to land locally

I never used the 2 motherboards u mentioned, but before Asus Hero i;m using Asrock X370 Fatality K4 around 1 month, i don't like the VRM temp & also wanted to match the built theme i sold it off after 1 month & bought Asus Hero, the only problem i'm facing about this board is it always have cold boot whenever i turn on the pc even with the latest bios update, this seem to be a common problem for this board after read from several comments from oversea forums.

Yup u are right, i'm using p state to OC my ryzen or else the cpu frequency & voltage will not auto reduced when idle or less loading.

In fact cold issue also happened on other brand, from other forums info asrock also have this issue. So could be amd issue.

Cold boot is not a big issue but just annoying only
